Kursalon (Kursalon Hübner) is a music hall in Vienna, designed by Johann Garben in the style of the Italian Renaissance and built between 1865 and 1867.
In 1857, Emperor Franz Josef I ordered to demolish all the fortifications. Instead, he commanded to construct the Ring Boulevard as the expansion of the city. 1862 marked the opening of 65,000 m2 City Park, located in adjacent territory and designed by the landscape painter Josef Selleny. The Kursalon served as a place where visitors could get mineral waters to drink. Any amusements and social events were not allowed. But with the completion the venue saw changes. In 1868 the first concert by Johann Strauss took place in the Kursalon. Since then, the venue became a place for concerts and meetings. In 1908 the Kursalon was rented by Hans Hübner. Thus, its second name the place inherited from its owner. In the late 1990s the city government decided to sell the venue to the Hübner family.

The concerts here are totally tourist traps. So many fake positive reviews too. Save yourself the time and money by going to see the real amazing performances at Wiener Staatsoper (Vienna State Opera House).

Really a cool place, the stately interior pairs with touches of modernity. A visit is a treat. While they play Mozart and Strauss in the 18th century like concert hall, a pop music party could be swinging one floor below.

This is an old musik facility. The concert I attended was just "okay" because the musicians did not appear highly experienced. On the other hand, the two singers were excellent. The singers made the concert worthwhile.

OMG - the description does not do the program justice. Also, 10% discount with 5 or more. Exceptional. Get B section or better - small venue but good to be in mid section of Hall. Arrive early - 7:30 ish.
