The Life Ball in Vienna – the call for Life, Tolerance, and Solidarity

A one of a kind charity event: supporting those affected by HIV and Aids

The Life Ball in Vienna is Europe’s largest charity event to raise awareness and support people affected by HIV and Aids. The charity ball brings many celebrities and world famous stars to Vienna each year.

Since 1993 the Life Ball in Vienna has taken place every year in Vienna’s City Hall. Probably the most extraordinary ball of the world has had many famous guests: the actress Sharon Stone, as well as former US President Bill Clinton and the renowned Italian fashion designer Donatella Versace.

The Life Ball in Vienna on the 19th May 2012

The total of 4,000 Life Ball tickets for the Vienna Life Ball are highly sought after and sold out very quickly. However even if you do not get tickets for the popular ball in Vienna, you have the chance to take part in the event: the opening ceremony as well as the fashion show in front of the Vienna City Hall are open to the public and watched live by thousands of visitors each year.

The Life Ball theme for 2012

The Life Ball in Vienna has a different theme each year. Many of the ball guests wear lavishly crafted, fantastic costumes to support the theme. Starting in 2009 the Life Ball in Vienna will be dedicated to an element for 4 following years. After the element of Water in 2009 and the element Earth in 2010, 2011 was the year of the element Air and the slogan "Spread the Wings of Tolerance". 2012 will be dedicated to the element Fire with the motto "Fight the Flames of Ignorance". The Life Ball in Vienna will again take a stand against intolerance and exclusion and light a beacon of solidarity and the lust for life.
