Ride Salzburg’s funicular to Hohensalzburg Fortress for dinner and a Best of Mozart concert. Classic, VIP, and Golden VIP options vary by menu, seating, drinks, and extras. Expect a memorable setting, stairs between venues, and roughly 90 minutes of music.
“Dinner was fabulous as was the concert. Unfortunately there were several loud, rude people behind us and none of the ushers stepped in to ask them to be quiet or to wait outside. Even the musicians at one point looked over because the people were talking so loudly during the performance. Overall I would recommend and it was great value for the money.”
Spend about 1 hour 45 minutes hearing Mozart and other classical works in Mirabell Palace’s Marble Hall. You’ll choose Category I numbered seating or Category II open seating, with a short intermission, cloakroom, and optional drinks and snacks.

“Excellent experience and a good value. Enjoyed the whole experience.”
Spend an evening seeing Salzburg from the Salzach, riding the fortress funicular, dining above the Old Town, and hearing Mozart in an intimate concert hall. The package lasts about four hours and ten minutes. Choose a standard or VIP dinner, but plan for uphill walking and many steep stairs.
“People should know about the 300 steep stone steps that have to be traversed to access the concert. For anyone this could be challenging. As an able but older person I found this exgausting. Had I known about the 300 steps I would not have booked this activity.”
Begin at Restaurant Mirabell in the Sheraton Grand Salzburg with a three-course Austrian dinner, then walk five minutes to Mirabell Palace for chamber music in the Baroque Marble Hall. The concert begins at 8:00 PM, and you may finish with a drink at the hotel bar.
“It was such a wonderful experience start to finish, a really really nice way to spend an evening. If you can afford to do it, I would reccomend.”

“Wonderful experience, we absolutely loved it! Enjoyed wandering through the castle before the concert - dinner could've been fun too! The funicular is quick and easy to get you up and the views (even though it was dark) were beautiful! The concert itself was so wonderful and loved the variety of songs played!”

Ride the funicular up to Fortress Hohensalzburg for a 90-minute Advent concert by the Salzburger Advent Ensemble. Hear Mozart, Bach, Vivaldi, and traditional Salzburg music in the castle hall, with city views and Christmas decorations along the way.
“The venue itself was incredible, but the exceptional performance of these virtuosos was purely an exquisite experience. I wished they could have played a few more encores. Nobody wanted the concert to come to an end! It was the highlight of our time in Salzburg.”

Meet in central Salzburg for an 8 p.m. concert inside Hohensalzburg Fortress. Ride the funicular up and down, enjoy Mozart, his contemporaries, and Salzburg Advent music, and allow time for night views. The 90-minute event has no hotel transfer or meal included.
“Magical to be at the fortress at night. Beautiful views. Music transported us to another time. Talented musicians.”
Cruise the Salzach from central Salzburg, then ride the funicular to Hohensalzburg Fortress for a 90-minute Best of Mozart concert. You’ll see the Hagen and Tennen mountains, city rooftops, and a splendid concert hall. Plan carefully around the long gap between the boat and evening performance.
“I booked a river cruise & best of Mozart fortress concert. The information I received indicates overall activity is a total 2hours, starting at 4:00pm, and I thought would be finishing at 6:00pm. I had no idea that the concert was going to start at 8:00pm. Which we couldn’t attend because we had to catch a train. Unfortunately I felt the whole thing was west of money. It was not made clear that the concert would start at 8:00PM. when I wrote to the organizers they didn't even apologies for the misleading information. In all this was not worthwhile and west of money for us.”
Attend a 90-minute Christmas concert in Mirabell Palace’s Baroque Marble Hall. You’ll hear works by Mozart, Vivaldi, and Corelli, performed by Ensemble 1756 on period instruments or the Salzburger Mozart Consort. The palace is a historic venue where Mozart performed for Salzburg’s royalty.
“We listened to extremely talented musicians playing historic music on period instruments at a very beautiful venue. A perfect snowy evening in Salzburg.”
