We’re looking to book an evening Mozart concert at Marble Hall in mid-May. Thinking to book a Cat 1 ticket as seats are assigned. Where are the best seats for views or sound within rows 1 - 10? Have others enjoyed this concert and venue recently?

My wife and I attended a concert in Sep 2025, and had row 1, seats 7 and 8 -- directly in front of the performers.
The performer-facing front row seats were very good. The front row seats facing the sides of the performers much less so.
Attendees appeared to all be tourists, and most were very casually dressed. For example, most of the men in the front rows were wearing blue jeans.
Of the 4 performances we attended during our trip, for us this one was skippable. It was not bad, but just was not up to the level (or the price) of the other 3 performances. (2 in Salzburg: this Mozart concert and a Macbeth opera, 1 Vivaldi performance in Vienna, and 1 opera in Budapest). The Marble Hall itself was very pretty.

Note that, as mentioned in the RS book, if you just want to see the Marble Hall, it's
usually open during park hours.
