A companion or escort for the Vienna Opera Ball

One night when the State Opera becomes a ballroom: doors at 20:40, the opening ceremony at 22:00, and the floor full until morning. Tell us who you’d like beside you and we’ll see who we can find: male and female escorts and companions, for women and men. We don’t publish a list of people. We reply with options, then confirm every detail with you.

Vienna Opera Ball: the evening and the after-party

About 150 musicians play in eight ballrooms and bars across the building through the night, and the quadrille comes round at midnight, 2:00 and 4:00. It is a night to have a dance partner. Invitations to private parties are the hosts’ to give; the table, the car and the company for the evening are ours to arrange.

The rest of the Vienna Opera Ball, arranged

The seats, a table for dinner before or after, somewhere to stay, getting there, and company for the evening. All of it, or just one part: pick the parts.

Can Rouge arrange an escort for the Vienna Opera Ball?

Yes. Rouge arranges male and female escorts and companions, for women and men, for one day at the Vienna Opera Ball, one evening or all of it. Message us on WhatsApp with your dates and what you have in mind.

Is there an after-party at the Vienna Opera Ball?

The ball is the after-party: it runs through the night until morning, with the quadrille at midnight, 2:00 and 4:00.

What should a companion wear to the Vienna Opera Ball?

Tailcoat for men and a floor-length evening gown for women.

Can Rouge find me a date for the Vienna Opera Ball if I already have tickets?
