Questions people actually ask
What is included in the price?
What is included in the price?
Everything. The price shown is the price charged: our booking fee is €0.00 and we print it on your order at €0.00 rather than leaving it out.
When is my ticket issued?
When is my ticket issued?
At checkout. Your QR code, wallet pass and PDF exist the moment your card is charged.
What does VIP add?
What does VIP add?
A seat in the first four rows and a drink. It is the same concert from every category.
Why can I not pick a seat?
Why can I not pick a seat?
The house sells no numbered seat. You book a category — the first four rows, the middle of the salon or the last two rows — and the house seats you inside it. The plan on this page is a plan of the room, not a picture of what is free.
How long is the concert?
How long is the concert?
The orchestra’s own terms of business give the half-past-six concert as running to about a quarter to eight. They publish no exact running time, and we do not invent one.
Is dinner included?
Is dinner included?
No. The orchestra sells a concert-and-dinner evening with Café Landtmann and the SERVUS Restaurant; that is a different package and we do not sell it. What you book here is the concert.
How should I dress?
How should I dress?
As you like. There is no dress code, though a Baroque salon invites you to make an evening of it.
Can I change the date?
Can I change the date?
Yes, free, until 48 hours before, for the same category, up to twice. If the new date costs more you pay the difference; if it costs less, your original price stands.
Until when can I cancel?
Until when can I cancel?
Fourteen days from purchase, and never inside 48 hours of the concert — whichever comes first. The exact date is printed on your order line.
Will my party sit together?
Will my party sit together?
We always book your party on one order and ask the house to seat you together inside your category. If they seat you apart, tell us and we will put it right.
What if you cannot supply it?
What if you cannot supply it?
You are refunded in full and immediately, whatever the date, and told that we could not supply it. There is no voucher and no substitute you did not choose.
