AC/DC Vienna

There will be several fantastic concerts and events in Vienna this summer. The highlight is the Taylor Swift concerts at the Ernst-Happel Stadium in August, but some will disagree and say that the two AC/DC concerts at the same stadium in June will be even more fantastic. Luckily, you don’t have to decide… you can experience both AC/DC and Taylor Swift in Vienna this summer.

The first AC/DC concert is held on June 23, while the second is arranged on June 26. The venue has space for more than 50,000 people and it is expected to be completely full on both evenings. The band will do several concerts in Dresden and Munchen before they come to Vienna, and after they have left the stage in Vienna, AC/DC will travel Zurich, and then to London. What is really interesting is what will happen after that. AC/DC is extremely popular in Germany, so on July 13, the band will play at the Hockenheimring in front of more than 100,000 people. Isn’t that gonna be a wild experience?

The last AC/DC concert in Europe this summer will be held in Paris on August 13. Would you like to be there at one of the AC/DC concerts in Vienna, or maybe the one in Hockenheim, or combine a trip to the Eiffel Tower with “Highway to Hell”?

Taylor Swift Vienna

2024 will be a fantastic year for those who love great music. Vienna will host many fantastic concerts, including a series of Coldplay concerts at Ernst-Happel Stadium at the end of August. A few weeks, however, before the arrival of Coldplay, another fantastic artist will come to Vienna, Taylor Swift.

Taylor Swift was born on December 13, 1989, in Reading, Pennsylvania. She has since then become one of the most influential artists alive at the moment. She started her musical journey early, and she wasn’t old when she performed in local talent shows. Not only did she have a great voice, she also proved herself as a great songwriter. She got her big breakthrough after moving to Nashville, the home of country music. Many people say that Taylor Swift was discovered as an artist at the age of 14 by Scott Borchetta, the founder of Big Machine Records. He was present in a club in Nashville and as he listened to Taylor Swift, he knew he was looking at something special. I guess you know the rest of the story, and that is why you are eager to be there as Taylor Swift comes to Vienna in the summer of 2024.

Taylor Swift will perform three times at the Ernst-Happel Stadium in Vienna. All tickets were sold out quickly, but if you are willing to pay more, then you can still buy second-hand tickets for the concerts.

How can I get to the concert venue?

Have you got a ticket for one of the Taylor Swift concerts in Vienna? It is easy to visit the concert venue. The easiest method is by using the metro or railway system where you travel to “Praterstern/Messe Prater“. From there, you can easily walk to the venue. Be aware that the stadium is behind the popular Prater amusement park, so you might be tempted to enjoy some roller coasters and other cool programs on your way to the venue.

There is a metro station even closer to Ernst-Happel Stadium, so if you don’t want to walk a lot, use metro line U2 and travel to the stop named “Stadion.”

The Taylor Swift concerts in Vienna are only some of the many concerts in Europe in 2024. She starts her tour in Europe in Nanterre in France in May. From there she will travel to Stockholm, Lisbon, Madrid, Edinburgh, Liverpool, Amsterdam, Zurich, Munich, Warsaw, and some other cities before coming to Vienna.

After the concerts in Vienna, Taylor Swift will travel to London where she will hold her last concerts in Europe before traveling back to the United States.

Coldplay Vienna 2024

Have you ever heard of people who had a date, and then did it once again due to the success of the first date? Then they met for a third time, which even turned into a fourth date. Coldplay isn’t coming to many cities in Europe during their world tour in 2024, but Vienna is one of the few cities lucky enough to be visited by the band. But, what started out as three concerts was quickly extended to a fourth night due to the popularity and demand for tickets. In other words, you have four evenings in August 2024 where Coldplay will perform at the magnificent Ernst-Happel Stadium in Vienna.

The first Coldplay concert is arranged on August 21st in 2024. Ernst-Happel Stadium is a venue often used for football matches but has en even greater atmosphere during concerts. If you want to get to the stadium, travel by metro to Praterstern and walk from there. You can even travel by the mini-train in Präter to get to the arena. As a result, traveling to Ernst-Happel Stadium using public transportation in Vienna is a very easy task.

Coldplay concert in Vienna 2017

Posted on January 17, 2017 by worldcityguides

On June 11th Coldplay will come to Vienna to perform at the Ernst Happel Stadium. The stadium will be packed, but will you be among the audience?

Coldplay is a very popular band and in 2017 they will be traveling all across the world with their “A Head Full of Dreams” tour. This is connected to their newest album carrying the same name, so if you haven’t bought their latest album yet, then this is a brilliant chance to do so.

Coldplay will visit lots of cities across Europe on their tour, but not so many close to Vienna, meaning that cities like Prague and Budapest will not be visited by the popular band.

Before arriving to Vienna Coldplay will perform in Lyon, and once they have finished their concert in Vienna they are supposed to leave for Leipzig. But, there is little doubt about the fact that the concert in Vienna will be fantastic. We are really happy about Coldplay coming to Vienna, especially after Bono and U2 skipped out on Vienna during their Joshua Tree tour, meaning that U2 fans will have to travel to Rome, Berlin or some other city in the western part of Europe if they want to enjoy a U2 concert in 2017.

World Cup 2018 qualification: Austria vs Wales

Posted on September 8, 2016July 11, 2024 by worldcityguides

On the 6th of October it is time for the Euro 2016 stars from Wales to play against the Euro 2016 failure Austria in Vienna. Can Austria keep up the good work from their first World Cup 2018 qualification match against Georgia?

There is little doubt about the fact that Austria’s performance in Euro 2016 was a big disappointment to most people. They came with great expectations on their shoulders, but it was all destroyed in the first match loosing 2-1 against their eastern neighbors Hungary. Now Austria is back out there again to qualify themselves for the World Cup 2018 in Russia, but it want be easy. In October they have two tough matches coming up. First they are to play against Wales in Vienna on September 6th and then three days later against Serbia in Serbia.

Can Austria stop Gareth Bale on October 6th in Vienna?

Austria vs Wales on October 6th

If Austria impressed in their match against Georgia in September, then Wales impressed even more as they won 4-0 against Moldova. That is of course an opponent they should beat easily, but 4-0 is still a great result in European football today. The question is whether Austria can play disciplined football and stop the great players from Wales like Gareth Bale and Samuel Vokes?

Austria has some great players themselves, but when it really counts they are not always able to perform well together. In this match against Wales they can take a giant step towards a great start on the World Cup qualification, at least if they manage to win.

Watch Austria vs Wales

You can watch the match in Vienna on the stadium, but if you only want to watch it at home then it will most likely be broadcasted on ORF in Austria. This is a free channel for everyone, so watch the match there if you are in Austria. If you are located outside Austria then you can read more about watching ORF from abroad in this article.

There are also lots of great places in Vienna where you can watch the match on big screens. There are sports pubs here and there and lots of restaurants also have large LCD screens available. Enjoy the match, and if you have time left do not forget to visit Schonbrunn, Hofburg and the rest of the famous attractions in Vienna.

Austria Wien vs Rosenborg

Posted on August 15, 2016 by worldcityguides

Do you like a good football match? On Thursday at 19.00 Austria Wien will host a Europe League qualification match against Rosenborg from Norway on Ernst Happen Stadium.

Rosenborg is a well known team in Europe and for sure the most famous Norwegian team. They have been playing in the Champions League several times, but in the last years they haven’t really managed to reach success in Europe. Last year they qualified for the Europe League, but they ended up on the last place in their group and did not manage to win any of their matches. But, what about Austrian Wien? Can they beat the Norwegian champions?

If you want to watch the match then the stadium is located not far from Prater, the fantastic fun park in the center of Vienna. From there you can go with a little train and end up by the stadium. The stadium is a giant one, meaning that there will for sure be free tickets if you should want to watch the match between Austria Wien and Rosenborg.

While in Vienna we recommend that you visit the Museum of Fine Arts which is one of the finest museums in Vienna. For shopping we recommend that you walk around in the center near the Stephansdom.

Austria – Moldova

Posted on September 3, 2015September 3, 2015 by worldcityguides

This upcoming Saturday, starting at 20.45, it is time for a new Euro 2016 qualification match. This time Austria will play against Moldova, a team they beat 2-1 on October 9th in 2014 at the Stadionul Zimbru in Chisinau.

The odds are high for anything else than a victory for Austria in this match, so we are quite sure that this match will have a good end for Austria, but nowadays no opponent can be called an easy one in Europe, so hopefully the Austrian guys will not underestimate their opponent.

The match will be played at the Ernst Happel Stadium, located very near Prater, so if you are in Vienna and would like to watch the match live, then you better try to get hold of some tickets and check out this match at the impressive stadium in the center of Vienna.

If you have no chance to see the match at the stadium, then why not watch it live on a sports pub somewhere in Vienna? Read the linked article to read more about great sports bars and pubs in Vienna. If you do not have the chance to do so either, then you can watch the match on a TV in your hotel room, and it might be useful to know that the TV channel ORF will broadcast the match.
