Event staff were courteous and extremely helpful. Absolutely no issues with entry to venue. The church's architecture was beautiful. The whole experience of the light of creation was very moving and memories of that night will stay with me for a long time.

An incredible fusion of music and light—30 minutes during which the entire interior of the Votivkirche is bathed in fantastic video sequences, images, and animations, all presented in top-notch sound quality. You sit with your mouth agape and are left speechless as springboks and zebras are stalked by cheetahs high above from the side aisles, or as sharks, dolphins, and rays glide through the church.
Columns transform into seemingly living structures, and when a starry sky appears—as beautiful as any in a planetarium—you can’t help but feel awestruck. Words aren’t enough—YOU HAVE TO SEE IT.

Not being someone who attends church at all, I was concerned that I wouldn't enjoy the show. I WAS VERY WRONG! 😂 It was a beautiful display of technology and music set in a historic cathedral, and from the first crescendo and fall, I was hooked and even had goosebumps 😁 Definitely recommend. this experience.

That was awesome!!! Maybe show the older visitors how to turn off the flash on their cell phones! But other than that, it's definitely worth the experience.

It was Friday afternoon when I learned that my adult son would not be able to join me for a weekend in Vienna as planned. Since I was already there, my first thought was “I am stuck there alone for 2 days”.
At first, it was very dissappointing as we had both been looking forward to it for quite some time. However, I quickly reasoned that being in Vienna for a weekend in early summer, on my own and without needing to adjust my plans to anyone else, is not being “stuck” – it is actually a proper getaway :)
So I started planning from scratch, as the original plans were more about keeping the younger generation entertained than about me. That’s when I came across information about Light of Creation in Votivkirche on the Headout site. The description was clear, the location easy to find, and booking was simple – you just need to show your confirmation email at the entrance of Votivkirche and exchange it for a paper ticket. (I did briefly wonder whether they might not recognize a third-party booking but everything worked perfectly.)
During those two days I managed to see and do a lot – including a concert in Karlskirche, rooftop lunches, long walks around the city, visits to Hundertwasserhaus and the Prunksaal, and even the pride parade. All of it was wonderful, but Light of Creation will remain the highlight of the trip. The experience of this event is difficult to fully capture in words. I can only say that it is truly “immersive,” exactly as described, and absolutely beautiful. While it is certainly well suited for families and couples, it is also a perfect experience for an unexpectedly-solo traveller :)
