Don’t have a team? Don’t worry! Just register now and we’ll sort you out with a whole new crew of buddies for the evening.

As we have done over the past few of weeks, we are again giving you some clues around the questions that have been created by one of our guests of honour for the night, Uniworld.

Read the information below and you will be able to confidently answer any questions about Uniworld on the night (we virtually guarantee it).

This year marks the 300th anniversary of Maria Theresa’s birth, and Uniworld is celebrating the occasion all year long with special festivities and exclusive activities. 

Maria Theresa held many noble positions in her time – Holy Roman Empress, German Queen and Archduchess of Austria, to name a few. Her legacy was the inspiration behind Uniworld’s S.S. Maria Theresa.

Guests will celebrate like Austrian royalty throughout their eight-day journey from Budapest to Passau. Guests will have a “Morning with the Masters” sipping on Bellini cocktails while admiring the stunning views from the prestigious Kunsthistorisches Museum’s cupola terrace.

With exclusive early-morning access to the world-famous museum, guests will explore the royal Habsburg family’s treasures and their famous collections of art, including Raphael’s Madonna in the Meadow and the Infantapaintings by Diego Velázquez, among others.

No visit to Vienna is complete without music. Guests will have the exclusive opportunity to experience Europe’s rich aristocratic heritage with a private “Royal Anniversary” concert and dinner, celebrating Maria Theresa’s 300th birthday and legacy in a Viennese palace, where they will partake in traditional ballroom dancing.

Guests on the Enchanting Danube itinerary will ride in style. A trip to Vienna’s Spanish Riding School allows guests to discover the 450-year-old equestrian tradition of the Lipizzaner Stallion.
