What is the name of Austria's famous New Year's Eve concert performed by the Vienna Philharmonic?

Austria's famous New Year's Eve and New Year's Day concert by the Vienna Philharmonic is the Vienna New Year's Concert.

The concert is held in Vienna's Musikverein, especially the ornate Golden Hall. Its program is strongly associated with the Strauss family, particularly Johann Strauss II, whose waltzes and polkas dominate the repertoire, although other composers are also performed.

The first concert in the tradition took place on December 31, 1939, during the period of Nazi rule, and the event moved to January 1 in 1941. It has since become a major international broadcast, reaching viewers in many countries.

The program commonly ends with “The Blue Danube” and the “Radetzky March.” The audience traditionally applauds during the latter, often following the conductor's gestures. The concert is not always held on New Year's Eve itself; the best-known broadcast is the January 1 performance.
