HRClumsy administration. Excellent concert As indicated in your preamble, this rating is given only to the administration of the concert. I booked in advance, and printed what I was stated to be an e-ticket. When we arrived, we found we had to queue, so we could receive another ticket after handing in the original. This took some time. We were told that unless we had the second ticket, we would not be ‘in the system’. I am not able to stand for long periods and there was nowhere to sit while my husband obtained the second ticket. I consider this to be terrible organisation, although the staff were polite in the circumstances. Fortunately this experience was not carried through to the concert itself, which was memorable.

GBDreadful pre concert meal We booked a package with pre concert dinner at the Grand Hotel Wine and concert at the Musikverein with the Vienna Mozart orchestra. We had an execrable meal in the 1870 restaurant terrace at the Grand consisting of watery soup followed by chicken thighs in a tired room with poor service. The concert was musically very good although the seats were hard and the lighting uncomfortably bright. Enjoy the concert, eat elsewhere

GBVienna Concerts May 2019 During my visit to Vienna in May 2019, I registered for 3 concerts through ViennaConcerts.com. All were first rate. Each had a unique setting/venue that only added to the quality and atmosphere of the performances. If you have the opportunity, be sure to see Mozart’s Requiem at Karl’s Kirche.

GBThe show was wonderful but had to (in addition to the packaged cost) pay for beverages. The show was wonderful, the food was great but very small helpings, but the drinks (to include water) were not included in the meal price. I had wished that I would've known about the added cost of the drinks- especially that I would be paying more than 5 Euro for a bottle of water. I would attend in the future but I would upgrade my meal for a better experience.

GBWonderful experience but clarify location first! This was a wonderful experience and the children really enjoyed it. We did not understand the location correctly from the email confirmation and we missed the first part of our concert unfortunately. The hosts were wonderful and let us attend the next session to catch up the first half of the concert and saved us good seats. They didn't have to do that and it was incredibly kind that they did! I would recommend these events but also recommend that you clarify the venue twice before you set off!
