“The Opera Ball has a very long waiting time and currently we cannot assume that an event with 7,000 people in the house, with music, dancing and a lively atmosphere, is feasible on February 11,” argued the Secretary of State for Culture Green, Andrea Mayer. The current operations of the State Opera and other houses have nothing to do with this step. The concepts of security and prevention of cultural institutions are “exemplary” and it is convinced that the risk in cultural events with adequate concepts and seating arrangements is “acceptable”.
The Vienna Nobel and Traditional Dancing committee decided last week that the events could not take place under the given circumstances. The doctors’ ball, the lawyers’ ball, the officials’ ball, the Concord ball, and the pharmaceutical ball were affected. The hunter’s ball had already been canceled.
