Concerts at Palais Alte Börse
Vienna Residence Orchestra

The former Vienna Stock Exchange building has a distinctive brick-red facade and is one of the most prominent edifices on the world-famous Ring-boulevard. The Börsensäle premises were constructed by Danish architect Theophil von Hansen between 1871 and 1877 and housed the Vienna Stock Exchange until 1998. Theophil von Hansen gave personal attention to the Festsaal, creating ornamentation which was grand, yet still paying attention to detail. Today, the hall is a dignified setting for grand festivities.

How to get to the Palais Alte Börse

By public transportation

The Palais Alte Börse is only a short walk from the subway station Schottentor of the subway line U2. Also the tram lines #1 and #D have a station at Wipplingerstraße which is right next to the Palais.

By car

As with most concert venues in Vienna's first district (Innere Stadt), we recommend not going there by car. Vienna's historic centre has numerous narrow and one-way streets, and parking spaces can be difficult to find.

Please note that Vienna has a city-wide paid short-term parking zone (Kurzparkzone), generally in effect Monday to Friday (working days) from 9:00 to 22:00, with a maximum parking time of two hours. A valid parking ticket (Parkschein) is required when parking on the street during these hours. Parking tickets can be purchased at tobacconists and other sales points or electronically using Vienna's HANDYPARKEN service on your mobile phone.
For concert visitors arriving by car, a parking garage is usually the more convenient option.

By taxi

Taxis are a reliable and convenient way to travel to your concert. They can be found at taxi stands throughout Vienna or ordered by telephone or app. Two major Vienna taxi dispatch centres can be reached at  +43 1 31300 and  +43 1 40100.
