Standing Room

With our Standing RoomPLUS, you have the opportunity to purchase an additional benefit for the Vienna State Opera in addition to your Bundestheater Card.

By paying a one-off fee of €20, you can purchase your standing room at a greatly reduced price of €5 (first floor) or €4 (balcony or gallery), either online or in person at the Bundestheater box offices from 10 a.m. on the day before the performance. In addition, you will receive a contingent of four free standing tickets.

Please note that the price reduction and advance booking can only be applied to one standing place per performance and BundestheaterCard.

Attention: If your Bundestheater Card was issued after August 30, 2023, you must pay the one-time Standing Room PLUS fee to take advantage of the offer. If your Bundestheater Card was issued before August 30, 2023, Standing Room PLUS is automatically activated for you.
