Every New Years Eve, the whole city becomes one giant party with many open air stages.

There are 12 Open air stages in the city centre are.
Vienna is where waltz was invented and where every winter couples have spinned around for over 200 years to the three-quarter beat.

Although the imperial days are over, the same atmosphere is still palpable.
