Vienna’s ballrooms and the Strauss dynasty have been inextricably associated for over a century. A newcomer on the ball scene is the Vienna Night of the Dance, initiated by Thomas Kraml in 2022 and reflecting the entire panoply of Austria’s dance culture. In 2025 it begins with a homage to
Johann Strauss, the undisputed king of romantic dance music. His inspiring melodies will help the dancers defy the laws of gravity for a moment before coming back to earth to celebrate a heady mix of immortal music and sartorial elegance.
