The Theater is Taking Shape: Structural Works Now Under Way

With excavation successfully completed, the start of the building construction marks a major milestone. In this phase, the concrete, steel and timber construction works will be carried out, creating the structures that will now give the new theatre its visible form. The topping-out milestone is scheduled for the end of 2026, with the opening of the venue planned for the end of 2027.

Covering an area of around 12,000 m², the project will provide modern theatre, audience and backstage facilities designed to meet the highest standards in functionality, construction quality and user comfort. A particular focus is being placed on comprehensive accessibility to ensure equal and convenient access for all visitors.

A Boost for Vienna as a Cultural and Economic Hub

For SWIETELSKY, the Theater im Prater is exemplary of the kind of project in which building construction expertise, precision in execution and a collaborative partnership are essential. Together with ATG Entertainment, Swietelsky is helping to deliver a building whose impact extends far beyond its structural function: as a new cultural attraction, as a driver for Vienna as a location, and as an investment in modern, sustainable theatre infrastructure.

With the Theater im Prater, SWIETELSKY is delivering a project that is both architecturally and structurally ambitious, while contributing to the continued strengthening of Vienna as a cultural and business hub.
