Not sure which ticket to choose?
For the best value in June 2026, book a standard entry ticket online to secure 'Fast-Lane' access to the express lifts, which bypasses the ticket office queue. If you plan to visit more than three major Viennese landmarks, the all-inclusive Vienna PASS is the most cost-effective choice as it covers the full tower admission.
Tourists planning to visit multiple sites like Schönbrunn and the Hofburg
The Vienna PASS includes the Danube Tower and provides significant savings for high-volume sightseeing over 1–6 days.

4 things to know before your visit
- Entrance: The Danube Tower (Donauturm) features a single main entrance at the base. While 'skip-the-line' tickets bypass the ticket office, they do not grant priority for the elevators, which remain the primary bottleneck during peak hours. Visitors with restaurant reservations should check in at the dedicated desk in the foyer. A maximum of three wheelchair users are permitted on the observation deck at once. Small lockers are available in the foyer for bulky items, as large bags and strollers are not permitted on the deck.
- Price: Official adult entry for June 2026 is €19.90, with reduced rates for seniors (65+), students (up to 27), and children (6–14). Partner prices may vary; compare the final checkout total. The 'Donaurutsche' slide requires a separate fee of €6.00.
- Discounts: Official 2026 pricing at the Danube Tower is tiered: Adults pay approximately €18.00–€19.90, while Seniors (65+), Students (up to age 27), and Youth (15–19) qualify for reduced rates with valid ID. Children aged 6–14 receive a significantly discounted rate, and children under 6 enter for free. Note that free-entry children still require a zero-cost ticket, which should be added to your online basket or requested at the ticket desk before joining the elevator queue. Visitors with a disability (60% or more) receive a discount, and if an accompanying person is required (indicated by 'B' or equivalent on the disability ID), that companion enters free of charge. Holders of the Vienna PASS or Vienna Flexi PASS enjoy one-time free entry but must present their pass at the ticket counter to receive a valid lift voucher. Always carry physical or digital proof of age or student status to avoid being charged the full adult fare at the gate.
- Timing: Arrive early enough for security checks, ticket scanning and wayfinding.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Does a 'skip-the-line' ticket bypass the elevator queue?
No. These tickets allow you to bypass the physical ticket office queue only. All visitors must join the same line for the security check and the high-speed elevators, which are the main bottlenecks during sunset and weekends.
Is the slide (Donauturm-Rutsche) included in the standard entrance ticket?
No, the slide requires a separate ticket. You can purchase a combo ticket in advance or buy a single-ride token at the terminal on the central level (165m) if you meet the height requirement of at least 110 cm.
Can I get a refund if the weather is bad or visibility is low?
Official tickets are generally non-refundable due to weather conditions. If you want flexibility, book through partners like GetYourGuide or Tiqets, which often offer a 24-hour cancellation window for a full refund if the forecast looks poor.
Do I need to print my tickets or are mobile vouchers accepted?
Digital tickets are fully accepted. You can scan the QR code on your smartphone directly at the turnstiles to enter the elevator waiting area.
Are there discounts for children, students, or seniors?
Yes, reduced rates are available for children (ages 6–14), students (up to age 27), and seniors (65+). Children under 6 enter for free but must still be accompanied by an adult; verify at checkout if a free 'zero-price' ticket needs to be added to your cart.
How long can I stay at the top of the tower?
There is no strict time limit for your stay on the observation deck. However, if you have a reservation for the revolving restaurant or café, your table is typically reserved for a specific 90-minute or 2-hour window.
Is the Danube Tower included in the Vienna PASS or Vienna Flexi PASS?
Yes, the Danube Tower is a standard inclusion in the Vienna PASS. Cardholders can head directly to the entrance turnstiles, though you may still face a wait for the elevator during peak capacity periods.
