Vienna - Taxi availability after evening concert

Hello
We will be in Vienna for an evening - our ship will be docked and we plan to go to an evening concert at St. Charles church early November when it will be quite cold at night.

We are planning to take a taxi - to and from the concert. I imagine that getting a taxi from our ship to St. Charles should be relatively easily? Right?

My question - after the concert - will it be easy for us to get a taxi from St. Charles back to our ship. About 16 people may go and we're fine with separate taxis. Will taxis be readily availability outside the church? I'm assuming it will be quite cold so hailing a cab quickly would be highly desirable. We will most likely NOT have mobile phones and thus calling a taxi may not be possible.

Thank you in advance for any tips or suggestions.

Hailing a cab in Vienna is not a thing, not really done. Everyone calls for a taxi or goes to a designated taxi stand or nearby hotel. Karlskirche is located in a park, so you’ll have to walk a bit. This map shows the locations of the taxi stands in Vienna. The nearest one to Karlskirche is at Gusshausstrasse 1-3.
