Visit the Prater Park to see the beautiful colors of Fall!
Enjoy the largest park in Vienna and escape the crowds of the city especially when school and uni are starting again! Prater is the largest park in Vienna, it has an amusement park, sports fields and a soccer stadium.
It’s the perfect location for sports, walks, and picnics when the weather is nice. But the enormous ferris wheel next to the amusement park, from which you can see the park and the entire city, is my favorite aspect of the park. If you want to leave Vienna with one of the most stunning views permanently etched in your retina, be sure to wander along the Prater.
Celebrate the independence of Austria on October 26th!
The national holiday of Austria is celebrated on October 26th in the middle of autumn. This day honors the day in 1955 when Austria attained complete national independence.

The opera season begins!
The opera season in Vienna opens in September, which also happens to be the start of the fall season. Since Vienna is known as the “city of music,” going to an opera is one of the best things to do here.
Starting early in the season has the added benefit of lower ticket prices, so if you’re trying to save some money, make sure to get your ticket as soon as possible. A great idea, especially during the chilly fall days.
Some operas will frequently mount a massive screen on the building’s exterior at the start of the season so that people can see them from the outside. So if you want to see you actually like opera, you can also watch a performance without even buying a ticket.
