Getting there and practical details

Neighborhood
Salzburg city center

The Mozarteum Foundation in Salzburg rents its Grosser Saal for events of up to 800 visitors, its Wiener Saal for up to 200 seated or 90 at dinner, and two foyers of 170 and 200 square meters. The building was erected between 1911 and 1914 by the Munich architect Richard Berndl, and a glass-and-steel foyer building opened in 2022 links the two historic halls.

Seminars and company events

The Grosser Saal suits a concert, a product presentation or a shareholder meeting, with excellent acoustics for soloists, chamber ensembles and large orchestras. The Wiener Saal is suited to conferences in an intimate setting, festive dinners and exclusive presentations, and the chairs are arranged as the client wishes. The foyers can be used with either hall or alone, for receptions, breaks and meetings.

Weddings and receptions

The pages read do not offer weddings. The Wiener Saal and the foyers are offered for festive dinners and standing receptions, so a gala dinner or a reception after a ceremony elsewhere can be arranged.

Rooms and capacities

The Grosser Saal takes up to 800 visitors, with concert seating of about 774 with the balcony open and 516 with it closed. It was renovated from 2020 to 2022 with new toilets, artists dressing rooms, a lift for step-free access, modernised air conditioning, power and concert technology, fire protection, a new parquet floor and new seat upholstery. The Wiener Saal takes concert seating for up to 200, festive dinners for up to 90 and a standing reception for 150, and it can be used together with the Grosser Saal or the Large Foyer. The Large Foyer on the first floor covers 170 square meters and leads over a glass bridge to the bastion garden. The City Foyer on the ground floor covers 200 square meters and opens to the baroque bastion wall, where a wall fountain from the original design is now visible.

Catering

Since the foyers opened in October 2023, impacts Catering has been the in-house partner for buffets, flying dinners and seated meals, for large and small events.

History and setting

The Mozarteum was built in late historicist Munich style. It stands in Salzburg city center next to the baroque bastion wall and its garden, and it hosts its own concerts through the season, so dates should be booked early.
