On January 25, 2024, the time had finally come again: the TU Wien Ball took place in the ballrooms of the Vienna Hofburg. For the first time, Rector Jens Schneider opened the ball together with HTU Chairman Paul Koo. The opening was once again organized with great attention to detail. The TU orchestra performed a brilliant Carmina Burana, and the Young Ladies' and Young Gentlemen's Committee impressed with their elaborate choreography.

The music program in the various state rooms of the Hofburg ranged from classical waltz music and big band sounds to New Orleans jazz and Latin American rhythms. The ACE Lounge in the second Radetzky Apartment was also a great place to dance to jazz music. In addition, our students and alumni enjoyed the many stimulating conversations over a free glass of sparkling wine.

It was great to see how elegantly dressed students, researchers and other domestic and international guests radiated pure joie de vivre for an evening. We are already looking forward to next year, when it's "Alles Walzer!" again! Make a note of the date for the next TU Ball on Thursday, January 30, 2025.
