The fusion of the lighting effects with the original music composed by Adam Lukas is absolutely unique and fantastic. The choreography of the production, which explores the theme of creation, is truly admirable. The artists have succeeded in creating something that is virtually impossible to top.

I cannot believe I was almost going to skip this experience even after booking it! It was worth every pennt, I was completely enthralled during the show, the theme, the location, the light and sound effects were very well thoughtout and would leave you speechless by the amazing choreography of light and sound expressing the creation of everything through the millennial. Lastly the entry and everything was quite straightforward, just the qr code and app and take your designated seat to enjoy the show. I highly recommend it and personally would do it again next time I am in Vienna

I was totally surprised—the colors, the music, the images—it was simply exhilarating. As an amateur photographer, I made the most of the time leading up to the event to take pictures.

Honestly, the "Light of Creation" light show at Votivkirche was one of the highlights of my trip so far. Seeing that massive gothic architecture completely transformed by the crazy projections was just mesmerising. The way the visuals sync up with the music creates this really cool, immersive vibe that is hard to put into words. It’s definitely one of the most unique things I’ve seen in Vienna, totally worth checking out!
