The 33rd Viennese New Year’s Eve Route is open: Since Tuesday at 2 p.m., the stages at Freyung, Am Hof, Graben, Stephansplatz, Kärntner Straße and Neuer Markt have been attracting visitors with free programs in all genres. The Wintermarkt am Riesenradplatz locations in the Prater and Rathausplatz – the largest of the eight stages – start at 8 p.m. respectively.
Mayor Michael Ludwig (SPÖ) visited the operations and security center in the early afternoon and expressed his gratitude to the armed forces.
The New Year’s Eve route, which has been visited by around 800,000 partygoers in recent years, takes place under strict security measures.
At the beginning of the Johann Strauss Year, on the occasion of the composer’s 200th birthday, the “Donauwals” should not be missed.
This year after midnight, Ankathie Koi and Max Mutzke will perform an extraordinary new arrangement of the classic hit by and with star percussionist Martin Grubinger on the Rathausplatz – supported by a 100-piece super band and with lyrics by Tex Rubinowitz.
