The Great Hall of the Musicfair, also called the Golden Hall, is famous for its luxurious finishes. Apollo and the muses draw attention to the ceiling, the columns are decorated in the form of antique female figures. The acoustics of the room are as incomparable as the appearance - the sound of music in the Golden Hall is unique. The New Year's Concert of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra is broadcast annually from the Golden Hall to a multi-million audience from all over the world.
