Combo: Vienna Spanish Riding School with Music + Upper Belvedere Palace Entry Tickets

Your experience

Experience two sides of imperial Vienna—live Lipizzaner training at the Spanish Riding School and world-class art at the Upper Belvedere—in one seamless combo.

Getting started

Make your way to the Spanish Riding School and the Upper Belvedere Palace at your chosen time slots. Arrive at least 15 minutes early at each venue for ticket validation. Security checks apply, especially at the Belvedere, so allow a little buffer.
