In celebration of the 270th anniversary of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 2026, a new Viennese ball tradition is born:
On January 27, 2027 – Mozart’s birthday – the first Vienna Mozart Ball will celebrate its glittering premiere at Palais Auersperg.

For one unforgettable night, the opulent halls of the Palais transform into a world of timeless elegance, festive melodies, and imperial splendor. Inspired by Vienna’s golden era, this newly created ball unites masterful classical music and traditional Viennese ball culture with contemporary joie de vivre — in the very place where Mozart himself once performed.

At the heart of the evening are the soloists of the Vienna Mozart Orchestra, who celebrate their 40th anniversary as part of this exclusive event and serve as the official ball ensemble, creating an atmosphere of unparalleled refinement. On this historic date, masterful classical compositions and the exhilaration of the Viennese waltz merge into a unique celebration for the senses.

Explore the magnificent ceremonial halls, lose yourself in the rhythm of the waltz, and experience artistic performances deeply rooted in Viennese tradition. On the birthday of the genius, Palais Auersperg opens its doors for the very first time to this new and distinguished ball format — a tribute to four decades of orchestral excellence and to Mozart’s enduring legacy.

The Vienna Mozart Orchestra invites you…
to a premiere on the master’s birthday…
let the night begin.
