Vienna is celebrating the 200th birthday of Johann Strauss. The "Krone" invites you to a colorful family afternoon at the Theatermuseum, where young and old can immerse themselves in the world of the Waltz King with a varied program.

This year, the whole of Vienna will be the scene of celebrations in honor of Johann Strauss! To mark the 200th anniversary of his birth, the Theatermuseum and the Vienna City Hall Library are presenting an exciting and eventful program focusing on the great composer.

Highlights for young and old Strauss fans
Children and young people can also immerse themselves in the life of the Waltz King in a playful way, accompanied by the "Flederstrauss". On Saturday, February 22, the "Krone" is hosting a children's afternoon with a cross-section of three school workshops:

• "MAY I PLEASE? " 
  In a mixture of guided tour and workshop, the children discover the famous musician Johann Strauss. They compose, conduct and experience rhythm in a playful way. The program ends with self-made beards and a waltz dance.
• "EIN STRAUSS KOMMT SELTEN ALLEIN " 
  An interactive guided tour takes pupils into the world of Johann Strauss and his brothers. They learn exciting facts about their musical creations - and at the end, of course, they dance the waltz!
• "STRAUSS AND MORE " 
  Young people embark on a fascinating journey through the exhibition, explore the many facets of Johann Strauss and try their hand at being a conductor or composer. The crowning finale is a joint dance in the festively decorated Halbrundsaal.

By the way: one of the ball donations at this year's Opera Ball comes from the KHM Museum Association: every ball guest receives an admission ticket and a fan with the motif of a floral still life by Jan Brueghel.
