Viennese Opera Ball in New York

The “Tanz Bar” (post-Ball party) follows from 1:00 to 2:00 a.m. and includes a full buffet supper with the Viennese Opera Ball's Signature Goulash Soup, as well as multiple venues featuring: live dance music, a DJ and a Vienna Coffee House with Viennese pastries.

The ceremonial tone of the Ball Opening continues with the Presentation and Posting of the Flags by a West Point Color Guard.

A choreographed waltz routine by young ballroom dance couples is followed by a call for "Alles Walzer!"

A Viennese Orchestra plays continuous dance music throughout the Ball, stopping only for Program highlights or performances by the featured Opera singers.

More recently in 2018, the 63rd Viennese Opera Ball commemorated the 100th anniversary of Gustav Klimt's legacy.
