A press conference announcing the second Kempinski Vienna Ball, which will take place on March 19, was recently held at the Kempinski Hotel Beijing Lufthansa Center. Gerhard Mitrovits, the hotel's general manager, gave a thorough introduction to the upcoming event. He said the Kempinski Vienna Ball is based on a tradition that goes back to 1935 when the first Vienna Opera Ball was held in Austria. In addition to the Quadrille, a traditional Austrian dance, the ball will also feature Viennese food and drinks. Arnold Obermayr, the Counselor of the Austrian Embassy, also attended the press conference and expressed the embassy's support.
