Greeting of the Mayor and Governor of Vienna to the V Vienna Ball in Turkmenistan
After a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic, Vienna, the world capital of music, invites you to immerse yourself again in the unique spirit of the city and spend an unforgettable evening. Back in the era of Viennese classicism, the city inspired outstanding composers such as Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven, and their world-famous music.
The Austrian capital is also known as the international capital of dance and Viennese ballroom traditions. All over the world, people celebrate the beginning of the new year with the legendary Blue Danube waltz and typical dance melodies of members of the Strauss dynasty.
Thanks to the unique music and atmosphere created by the unique spirit of Vienna, traditional Viennese balls abroad have turned into major international events. Finally, our guests in Turkmenistan will be able to hear «Alles Walzer!» - the traditional call to dance at the annual Vienna Opera Ball.
With the legendary Viennese balls in other countries, the city of Vienna shares with the whole world its life-affirming spirit of friendship and lightness.
The Vienna Ball in Turkmenistan is one of the brightest of its kind, it is a symbol of joy, peace and international understanding. In this regard, I wish the organizers great success, and all the guests an unforgettable evening and enjoy the unique atmosphere of Vienna under the spell of the traditional Viennese waltz.
Michael Ludwig, Mayor and Governor of Vienna.
