What to do in Vienna when it rains?

Rain is no reason to stay home in Vienna. The city has coffee houses, major museums, smaller galleries, theatres and concert halls, so a good day out does not depend on sunshine.

Instead of scrolling through endless calendars, this page keeps the choice short: indoor ideas that help you decide quickly. For a long afternoon, a museum followed by coffee is often enough.

The events below are currently active and mostly indoors. The list updates regularly, so it is worth checking back when the forecast keeps changing.

If you prefer browsing by mood, the art and culture and live music categories are usually the safest indoor bets.
