2 days in Vienna

We'll be staying in Vienna 2 days, September 12-13. Do we have chance to buy tickets to see Manon Lesco opera in Vienna Opera House. They have performance on September 12, 2009. Any good ideas about places to buy tickets?

I think you refer to Manon Lescaut.
Best method for tickets-
You can purchase them directly from the State Opera Box Office

www.staatsoper.at

on line or by phone. Directions in enlish on the web site.

Easily done .


Waiting until you are in Vienna may easily bring unhappiness as a saturday performance esrly in the season could easily be sold out by the time you arrive.
having to oto a ticket agency there means a premium price to be paid.

I tried to buy tickets from this site. Had few problems.
1.My transaction didn't go through.
2.User name and password didn't work, when I checked transaction.
3.They offered delivery choice, but on German. I didn't understand it. I wanted to pick up tickets from Ticket Box in Vienna.
I e-mailed them, waiting for response.

I wonder why you have so much trouble?

I've bought tickets directly from Staatsoper 3 times online and didn't have any problems each time. You take your email confirmation to the box office to retrieve your tickets.

I gave up on the website and contacted by email the concierge at our hotel. He obtained our tickets. I had to pay a bit extra but it was much easier.
