OK. ^
With 15 month's notice, we are about as definite as anyone can be so far in advance. Mark us down as definitely probable.
When do we start looking for the year after next's schedules for the Musikverein and Staatsoper?

Thanks to Melville for bringing this to my attention.
I have never done anything of the kind but I am tempted to give it a try.
Vienna is lovely, so is Munich, Dresden and all things German.
Also, it would be a lovely occasion to spend a birthday on the 18th.
However, I stopped counting 5 years ago...
I will certainly mull it over.
Thanks - Merci - Danke schoen!
(Now, this is not Cabaret but can become one later).

Ah, Vienna - one of the top contenders for my favourite city in the entire world! I've actually lost count of how many times I've visited over the years, but who cares ... of course I'm interested in doing it again!

Mr and Mrs harryhv - will endeavour to be there.
Oddly we will be visiting VIE 17-19 Sep, this year, happy to do a practice run at the Heurige
Edit - the Vienna Intercontinental is currently on "pointsbreaks" at 5000 points a night for Priority Club members but you can only book 12 months ahead

I'll be a maybe. My attendance sort of depends on what's on at the Staatsoper & Musikverein around those dates.

How convenient that this DO is when the Vienna Intercontinental is offering the 5k stays on Pointsbreaks. I'm predicting that the Intercontinental will have a lot of empty mini-bars after this DO. Unfortunately, I have to be in the states this weekend.

I'm a Maybe. Can't commit this far out, but I have an annual biz trip to Amsterdam that ends a few days before so would be easy to fly down. And since I went to school in Vienna and try to get back every few years, a double reason to go.
PS - I thought it was '09 at first too. And I've actually been to all the places for the weekend, but not w/ FTers so that would be fun.
Cheers.
