Stadtsaal, Theatre and ballroom in Mariahilf, Austria.
The Stadtsaal is a theater and ballroom with 422 seats in Vienna's Mariahilf district, hosting performances and dance events. The building features two foyer areas with drinks and snacks, as well as wheelchair-accessible facilities.
The hall originated in the 1880s as part of a hotel on Mariahilfer Strasse, where balls and gatherings regularly took place. After renovation by Fritz Aumayr and Andreas Fuderer in 2011, it reopened as an active venue for modern entertainment.
The venue draws a diverse crowd that comes to enjoy cabaret, theater, and dance events that shape the neighborhood's evening entertainment. Artists use the stage to address local and Austrian topics with humor and thoughtfulness, making this hall a gathering place for people who value contemporary cabaret.
The venue is easy to find and reachable by public transport that runs frequently through Mariahilf. It is best to check the program in advance to find events that match your interests and plan your visit accordingly.
Alfred Dorfer played a key role in the reopening, inaugurating the renovated stage with his performance titled "bisjetzt" in January 2011. This performance marked the beginning of a new chapter for the hall as a lively hub for Austrian cabaret.
