Description
Sisi Dinner, Living History offers an unparalleled overall experience that goes far beyond classic dinner events. They become part of the imperial court, receive titles of nobility and accompany “Sisi” through four temporally staggered acts of her eventful life, accompanied by live acting, faithful costumes and historical projections. Monika Mosser has created a violet sparkling wine especially for this evening, which with its flowery aroma and gentle perlage immediately transports you into the world of the Empress.
The highlight is an exclusive 3-course meal with hearty spicy steak or vegetarian porcini ravioli, served in style in the magnificent banquet hall of the over 400-year-old Hotel Stefanie. Accompanying music and sung contemporary testimonies bring the historical scenes to life and give you intimate insights into Sisi's secret poetic diary.

An experience that will be remembered.
We were in Vienna on September 27, 2025 and attended the Sisi Dinner at Hotel Stefanie – an all-round successful and highly recommended experience.
The evening was both culinary and historically a great pleasure. The theatrical depiction of Empress Elisabeth's life, combined with finely tuned culinary courses, is an extraordinary and unconventional idea. It is precisely this connection that makes the evening so special and wonderfully enriches a visit to Vienna.
Thanks to the historical template and the loving implementation, this event stands out clearly from classic evening events and gives Vienna an additional, very charming attraction. An experience that will be remembered.

An educational and entertaining evening with good food in a beautiful atmosphere
We went to this event as a family. It was a good opportunity to dress more finely. The advance notice made us curious. I had no clear idea what to expect, but it was really nice. The actress played Sisi very sensitively, without kitsch. The menu was very good, especially the main course with real apple dough surprised us. Overall a harmonious evening in a special Mood.
The interaction between courses and food is well planned and very entertaining. Our children especially liked the interactions with the audience (too much will not be revealed) in which they could participate.
