One of the world's foremost opera houses, a neo-Renaissance landmark on the Ringstrasse staging around 350 performances a season. You can take a guided backstage tour by day, snag cheap standing-room tickets for the evening, or watch live opera on a screen outside in season. Book proper seats well ahead, as standing-room queues form hours before curtain.
