Opera singers, ballet, Strauss and a music walk
This site does not sell vienna opera tickets for performances inside the Vienna State Opera. It compares four bookable listings with opera in them: a 1.5-hour Börse Palace concert with opera singers and ballet dancers for $52, a 50-minute Freddie Mercury opera show by candlelight for $38, a three-hour Johann Strauss dinner show at the Prater for $111 and a 2.5-hour private music tour for $515. All four show Free cancellation on the listing, and the cheapest can be booked up to five minutes before it starts.
Quick answer
The short answer. For opera voices in a Vienna evening, the Börse Palace concert at $52 is the closest match: classical pieces with opera singers and ballet dancers, 1.5 hours, 4.6 across 992 reviews. The Freddie Mercury show at $38 is the cheapest and shortest, rated 4.3 across 470. The Strauss show at $111 adds dinner. Vienna opera tickets for a staged production in the opera house are not among them.
What is not here
No seats at the opera house, no visits inside it. Four music listings instead.
None of the 65 listings on this site sells a seat for a performance at the Vienna State Opera, and none sells vienna opera house tickets for a particular night. If vienna opera house tickets 2026 for a named production are the goal, this page cannot help, and it does not guess at box-office prices, seating or a schedule.
The same goes for the building itself. No listing here sells vienna state opera guided tour tickets for a visit inside. Two group walks name the Vienna State Opera among their stops: the two-hour city highlights walk for $27 (4.8 across 4,191 reviews) and the two-hour small-group walk for $39 (5.0 across 820). Neither listing says it goes inside, so they are not vienna opera house tour tickets; both are compared on the walking tours page.
What the site does have is music. The four listings below put opera voices, Strauss or the composers of the city into an evening or an afternoon, each with a price, a length and a review count you can check before you book.

Listing by listing
The vienna opera tickets on this page are two shows, one concert and one walk.
Viennese classical pieces played by an orchestra with opera singers and ballet dancers, 1.5 hours, 4.6 across 992 reviews. The listing says the concert takes place in a palace or a concert hall, so the palace in the title is not promised for every date. It can be booked up to 15 minutes before the start.
A tribute to Freddie Mercury: his songs sung with operatic voices in a historic venue lit by candles, 50 minutes, 4.3 across 470 reviews, the lowest rating of the four. It is opera singing applied to rock songs rather than an opera, and it can be booked up to five minutes ahead.
Strauss classics with a Viennese dinner menu in a mirrored tent at the Prater, three hours, 4.6 across 1,026 reviews, the most reviewed of the four. The listing marks it wheelchair accessible. It is Strauss and dinner rather than opera; book at least an hour ahead.
A 2.5-hour private walk through the city of the composers, for your group only, rated 5.0 on 8 reviews. It is the one listing of the four without a performance, the place to start if the interest is the music history rather than a show. Book at least 10 hours ahead.

The honest answer
Close to opera at a concert price, or Strauss with dinner.
If by vienna opera tickets you mean a staged opera in the house itself, no: none of these four is that. If you want opera voices in a Vienna evening at a known price, the numbers favour the Börse Palace concert: $52 for 1.5 hours, singers and ballet dancers named in the listing, 4.6 across 992 reviews.
The Strauss dinner show costs about twice as much, $111, and runs twice as long, three hours, with the dinner in the price. The Freddie Mercury show is the cheapest ticket and the lowest rated, 4.3 across 470 reviews. The private music tour shows 5.0, but on 8 reviews, too few to call it proven.
Anyone weighing vienna opera tickets 2026 prices against these should know the figures here were read off the live listings in October 2026 and move with the date you pick; each card opens the calendar with the current price.
Want a full concert programme rather than opera voices? Mozart at the Musikverein, Vivaldi in Karlskirche and four more are compared on their own page.
