That Was the Halloween Ball

On 31 October, as dusk gave way to the witching hour, Palais Auersperg awoke. The Halloween Ball by Cirque Rouge transformed the historic salons into a world of candlelight, dark cabaret and seductive encounters.

Beneath sparkling chandeliers, guests danced in elegant, macabre beauty in the Rosenkavalier Hall, smoke and moonlight drew mysterious silhouettes in the Winter Garden, and burlesque, variety and live music waited behind every curtain of the salons.

Thank you to everyone who celebrated this hauntingly beautiful night with us – and to everyone who dressed so magnificently in velvet, lace and shadow.

The next night by Cirque Rouge is just around the corner: we ring in the new year at the New Year's Eve Ball by Cirque Rouge.
