74th Vienna Medical Doctors' Ball on January 31, 2026: Clear the stage for an evening full of magical moments!

Not only Advent, but also the ball season is in full swing, and soon it will be time to raise the curtain on the 74th Vienna Medical Doctors' Ball, which in 2026 will be held under the motto ‘A dance for life – a charity night for the CliniClowns’! One thing is certain: the Vienna Medical Doctors' Ball has never been as colourful, cheerful and varied as it is this year. You can look forward to a wide range of music and show performances, as well as a supporting programme that will transport you to the magical world of the circus!
Have yourself immortalised in a caricature or let the CliniClowns make you laugh and marvel, for example when Dr. Ernst Ernst sings spontaneous, personal serenades for you. Or become a star yourself: in our Karaoke Bar in the Radetzky Apartment II.

Are you longing for an extra dose of romance on ball night? Dr. IN Flagranti and Dr. Rapunzel know what to do: with plasters for broken hearts, the best flirting tips and, if you wish, even handwritten love letters for spouses, sweethearts, your hamster or simply for yourself.

Our fortune teller Madame Esmeralda will take a look into your future until midnight in the Maria-Theresien-Appartement II for a donation of your choice. Right next door, the FOTOAUTOMAT WIEN hosted by 25hours Hotel will capture the moment and your freshly interpreted future.

Cheerful souvenir photos also await you in Philipp Blickfang's photo studio in the side hall. There you can have your photo taken professionally together with a CliniClown. The photo sessions take place from 8.15 p.m. to 9.15 p.m. and from 10.30 p.m. to 11.30 p.m. The best thing about it: by purchasing your souvenir photo, you are directly supporting the work of the CliniClowns!
 
Doing good while enjoying yourself
Enjoy the varied ball programme and discover the many opportunities to do good. And speaking of enjoyment: the 74th Vienna Medical Doctors' Ball also has a lot to offer in terms of cuisine!
Try selected top wines at the WEIN&CO wine tasting in the side gallery or treat yourself to a popular BORTOLOTTI ice cream on the ambassador's staircase. In the guard hall, the KELLY'S popcorn stand awaits you with freshly prepared popcorn, while stocks last and for a voluntary donation.

Still haven't had your fill of sweet treats? Then visit STRÖCK's ‘Süße Eck’ in the side gallery in front of the ballroom, where fine delicacies await you.
If you want to quench your thirst, you can also do a good deed with your choice of beverage: with every CliniClown drink (Aperol Spritz, Campari Spritz or Schlumberger), you are supporting a good cause, as €3.50 per glass goes directly to the CliniClowns. Raise your glass and help out!

There is so much to discover, so let yourself be surprised and enjoy an unforgettable evening at the ball!

The Vienna Medical Association and the Ball Committee look forward to seeing you there!
