Laimgrubengasse 10, 1060 Wien, Österreich - On February 27, 2025, the 67th opera ball takes place in the Vienna State Opera, one of the most famous opera houses worldwide. This year the event will take place without the well -known master builder Richard Lugner and his often spectacular star guest. This ensures a special flair, but is accompanied by strict traffic measures. According to information from APA-OTS from 7:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. closed to cope with the high number of visitors.

comprehensive changes in public transport

The transport companies in Vienna adapt numerous lines due to the opera ball. From around 6:40 p.m. until February 27, tram lines 1, 2 and D are affected by diversions. Tram line 2a in particular will be completely stopped from 6:50 p.m. Bus lines such as the 59A are also limited to shortened routes. These measures, which will work from February 24, 2025, are not only a reaction to the event itself, but also to planned demonstrations in the city. Further information on the changed timetables is online on platforms such as MeinDzirk already available in the timetable implemented.

traffic experts advise the guests to use alternative means of transport such as subways, taxis or limousine services to avoid long traffic jams and parking problems. All traffic around the opera could be severely affected, which means additional stress for visitors. The opera ball remains an event of great importance that not only draws glamor and society, but also requires extensive preparations and changes in the municipal transport network.
