The Vienna Science Ball Gown Swap on January 9, 2026, once again proved to be a crowd-pleaser. Over 100 gowns and suits drew visitors to the foyer of the Biology Center at the University of Vienna, part of the Vienna BioCenter Campus, for both buying and swapping. Praised by the Kronen Zeitung as an “exemplary event,” guests browsed the colorful selection at the “dress carousel for ball enthusiasts” (W24) while enjoying a glass of Prosecco.
