Wiener Philharmoniker & Lorenzo Viotti - Sommernachtskonzert 2026 / Summer Night Concert 2026

Facts The Summer Night Concert of the Vienna Philharmonic is the world's biggest annual classical open-air concert that takes place in the magical setting of the Schönbrunn Palace Baroque park in Vienna (Concert date: June 19, 2026). Lorenzo Viotti conducted the Summer Night Concert for the first time. Welsh opera singer Sir Bryn Terfel performed as soloist, singing arias from Arrigo Boito's Mefistofele and Giuseppe Verdi's Falstaff, as well as the finale from Richard Wagner's Das Rheingold and Tevye's song from the musical Fiddler on the Roof by Jerry Bock. To the sounds of Maurice Ravel's Daphnis et Chloé, Suite No. 2, dancers of the Vienna State Ballet brought the ancient tale of the foundlings Daphnis and Chloe to life in a choreography by Eno Peçi, making them visible as "shadow figures" on the palace façade.
