Vienna Orchestra attire

Hello, would anyone know to what level of formality I need to dress, when attending an orchestral performance in Vienna, Austria? I am assuming suit and tie or tux? Thank you!

Where is the performance, exactly? Vienna is a music-filled town, and the fancier the surroundings the dressier the locals can get. I wouldn't plan on a tuxedo, however, unless I were attending an opening night or a ball.

Regular clothes, but men should wear a jacket and women not wear jeans. True for Vienna opera as well.

It's not that formal. Wear whatever you would wear out to dinner. When we were there, my husband wore a blazer and I wore a black knit skirt and top, all packable travel clothes but were presentable enough for the opera.
