General infos

The weather decision is made approximately three hours before the evening concert. It’s announced in a recorded message on our phone line, on our website and in the weather text message sent to the mobile phone number (only Austrian numbers) you’ve provided.

There is a bad-weather variant for all of Grafenegg’s own events (Prélude and evening concert). Tickets in categories 1-6 for the evening concert automatically have an assigned seat printed on them. Tickets in categories 7 and 8 entitle the holder to visit the video broadcast in the Riding School or to receive a refund (provided the concert was cancelled less than half way through or before the interval). To receive the refund, you must fill in the bad-weather form and return the tickets in person, by post or emailed as a scan. Please note that because the Auditorium and Wolkenturm are different sizes, there may be changes of category and seating position, and that adjacent seats at the Wolkenturm may be separated in the Auditorium. If there are still tickets available, holders of category 7 and 8 tickets may pay the difference for tickets in a better category.

Everyone’s welcome in Grafenegg however they feel most comfortable – from elegant evening dress to jeans. In summer, most gentlemen come in a summer suit without a tie and ladies wear a summer dress with a warm cardigan for the evening. When the weather is unpredictable, it’s advisable to bring rainproof and practical clothes. In winter, the selection ranges from elegant regional costume to dress trousers or jeans with shirt or blouse.
