Entertainment
Vienna is, and probably will be till the end of time, the European capital of opera and
classical music. The program of music events is never-ending, and as a visitor in the
centre you'll continually be accosted by people in Mozart-era costume trying to sell you
tickets for concerts or ballets. Even the city's buskers are often classically trained musi-
cians.
The city also sports a number of great clubs, jazz bars and live-music venues. The
tourist office produces a handy monthly listing of concerts and other events.
