Event Overview

At the height of the Vienna ball season, the Lawyers' Ball (Juristenball) is celebrated at Vienna's famous imperial palace (Hofburg).

It has become a tradition that AIJA members and friends visit this unique event together and enjoy a night of splendour, music and dance.

All AIJA members (and of course also former members!) are welcome to join us and to bring their partners and friends along.

For those worried about their dancing skills, we will organise a dance class in the afternoon before the ball. Join us and you will see that learning the most important dances to prepare for the ball can be great fun.

But even if you are not that much into dancing it is worth visiting this unique event to enjoy the imperial setting and the orchestras and bands playing in the magnificent ballrooms.

Note: While former AIJA members are explicitly invited to join and all current and former AIJA members are invited to bring partners and friends along, this event is not intended for participants with no connection to AIJA.

How to join us

Please book your ticket(s) directly on the ball-website here. The standard ticket price is EUR 185.

You can also book seats at a table, if you wish (please note that it is only possible to book two or four seats). If you buy seats, you can get discounted tickets at EUR 156 instead of EUR 185. 

We have organised a dance class to be held on the day of the ball (1 March 2025) from 13:00 to 15:00 at Tanzschule Dorner, Favoritenstraße 20, 1040 Vienna. The participation fee for the dance class will be payable directly at the dancing school.

In the evening, we will meet for pre-ball drinks and walk to the venue of the ball together.

We will keep you updated!

In the meantime, if you have any questions or already want to confirm your attendance, please send an e-mail to Clara Gordon (clara.gordon@wolftheiss.com)
