Prater season starts: 200 years of ostrich and exciting innovations!
The Viennese Prater starts the 2025 season with a unique celebration in honor of Johann Strauss son, whose 200th birthday is celebrated this year. In addition to the anniversary, visitors can expect a large number of new attractions to make the amusement park even more exciting. Among the highlights is an XXL swing that lifts up to 20 people at a height of 40 meters. In addition, the largest roller coaster in Austria, the “Vienna Looping”, is opened this month. "The Daemonium", the largest mobile family ghost railway in the world, which extends over four floors, will be a central element of the new season. Kosmo reports on these exciting innovations.
An important cultural highlight of the season is the Strauss dinner show in the Mirage, which recognizes the composer's musical culture. For all music lovers, a concert by the high and German champions will take place on the Robert Stolz monument on June 27, to honor Robert Stolz, another important composer. In addition, the construction of a new theater in Prater will begin in autumn. This project promises to generate an annual added value of 150 million euros, which could have a positive effect on Praterbetriebe.
