Elegance for a good cause – the dress code takes centre stage

When we ‘dance for life’ at the Vienna Medical Doctors' Ball and support the CliniClowns together, one thing is essential: an appearance that does justice to the good cause. The festive evening wear of our guests also creates a particularly dignified setting.
Our dress code is much more than a formal requirement - it is an invitation to show your best side in festive evening wear and to express your appreciation for the long tradition of the Vienna Medical Doctors' Ball.

Permitted:

  • Floor-length evening dress or large ball gown
  • Black tailcoat with decoration, black tuxedo or gala uniform

Not permitted:

  • Short or calf-length dresses and skirts
  • Trouser suits, jumpsuits
  • Business or day suits
  • Ties instead of bow ties
  • Sneakers, flip-flops, boots
Please note that admission will only be granted in appropriate attire. The ball committee reserves the right to refuse entry to guests who do not comply with the dress code. The dress code applies for the entire evening of the ball, and guests who do not comply may be expelled at any time.
 

Support services for a carefree evening

To make the 74th Vienna Doctors' Ball as enjoyable as possible, two helpful services are available exclusively to our ball guests on the evening of the ball itself:

BENEFIT Beauty Lounge

In the entrance hall on the mezzanine, the BENEFIT Beauty Lounge team led by renowned make-up artist Sandy Starsich offers guests the opportunity to freshen up their make-up and hairstyle.

Sissy's Sewing Room

At the Unteres Platzl, Sissy is on hand to help with a quick fix if a button comes off or a strap breaks. Discreet, fast and reliable.

We look forward to a dazzling evening in festive attire, where we will dance together for a good cause!
The Vienna Medical Association and the Ball Committee look forward to seeing you there!
