Question
I realize that this is planning ahead, but I expect that's necessary. My husband has loved this concert and we watch it every year. I'd like to know if there's a tour or package that would allow us to attend it for his 65th birthday; my date is 2012. If for some reason one could arrange tickets for next year, that's our 30th anniversay. (Our taste is small lovely hotels.) Thanks, Marcia

Answer
Hi Marcia,

there is a registration period (first 3 weeks of january) for the drawing of the tickets for next year's concert. (Actually it's 3 concerts - December 30 and 31 2009, and January 1 2010).

So in order to obtain tickets you have to register 1 year in advance. The results of the drawing are usually announced end of march.

The website is http://www.wienerphilharmoniker.at/

Good luck ;)

Cheers,

Mario
