19th Vienna Ball

About the Ball

The Vienna Ball is a major cultural and social event on an international stage – the largest (2,000 guests, 1,000 sqm dance floor) and most famous ball in Russia and one of the largest balls in the world.

The signature of the Vienna Ball is the participation of debutantes (120 couples), for whom it is the first major social event in their lives. Over the years many famous international singers like Dmitry Korchak, Lawrence Brownlee, José Bros, Marcelo Alvarez, Roberto Alagna and Kristine Opolais performed live. The synphonic orchestra will be conducted by Alfred Eschwé. In total, five orchestras do their part to entertain.

Beside, the Vienna Ball is also a charity event. Funds collected during the ball at the raffle benefit children who need expensive surgeries.

A once in a lifetime event

The 19th Vienna Ball will take place in the largest hall in the Russian capital. The Gostiny Dvor was built at the end of the 18th Century by decree of The Empress Catherine The Great in Moscow. The architect of this jewel was the famous Italian master Giacomo Quarengi.
