Shows and performances in Vienna

Dance performances, breathtaking acrobatics and shows in Vienna

Vienna has a talent for entertaining people, and not just since yesterday. The city that invented the waltz and elevated coffee to an art form also knows exactly how to make an evening unforgettable. Shows in Vienna mean a full house, genuine emotion and entertainment that lingers for days - whether you had tears in your eyes while laughing or briefly forgot to breathe during the finale. The Viennese cabaret scene is as lively as ever and has absolutely nothing to do with dusty niche programs. The Vindobona on Wallensteinplatz is one such institution that you should know about: Dinner shows, musicals, variety evenings, concerts and cabaret programs take place here regularly, in a house with history and with an audience that knows what it wants. Speaking of variety shows: anyone who has experienced a dinner show in which artistry, comedy, live music and a four-course menu by award-winning chef Toni Mörwald come together knows that entertainment can also be a culinary experience. The PALAZZO at the Spiegelpalast in Vienna's Prater is just that, a combination of acrobatic show, heart-warming comedy and gourmet evening, which makes an annual guest appearance in Vienna from November until spring and sells out every time, which you should know before you turn up spontaneously. For those who prefer to spend their evening laughing, Vienna is also well equipped. Stand-up comedy and improvisational theater have long since established their own self-confident scene here. The legendary improv comedy show "Sport vor Ort" is a regular guest at the Stadtsaal Wien and proves that spontaneous entertainment at a high level is a genuine art form. CasaNova Vienna in the 1st district regularly hosts national and international cabaret stars on its stage and also offers a subscription program for those who prefer something a little more engaging. Those who like English-language comedy shows will also find what they are looking for in Vienna: Regular English improv evenings bring together an international audience and show that the Viennese show scene is far from thinking only locally. The Globe Wien in Margaretengürtel is another permanent fixture in the city's entertainment calendar and offers a wide range of cabaret, music shows and comedy events. Whether you're planning a relaxed evening with friends, looking for a special date experience or just want to have a good laugh: Vienna has the right live show for every mood and every requirement. Our calendar of events shows you what's on, when the next tickets are available and where you're best seated. So: Curtain up and rausgegangen.
