Watch the NBA live. In the heart of Vienna.
Christmas Games, weekend games and the playoffs live with sound on the big screens. Honestly: most games run in the middle of the night – the ones that do fit our hours are listed below. On Franz-Josefs-Kai, right at Schottenring station (U2/U4).

We could claim we show every NBA game. We don’t: most tip off between 1 am and 4 am Vienna time, when we are closed. But there are three occasions a year that fit perfectly – and those we show properly.
- Christmas Games on 25 December – first game as early as 6 pm Vienna time
- Weekend games – some Sunday tip-offs from 7 pm
- Playoffs and Finals – individual weekend games at a civilised hour
- Everything else runs overnight – we’d rather be honest than creative
- Free entry – booking recommended
The dates that run here.
All times Vienna time. The list is deliberately short – we only name what genuinely falls inside our opening hours.
Buzzer beater. Full house.

Four quarters take longer than you think.
An NBA game happily stretches past two and a half hours. Handmade smashburgers, wings and finger food are served until 11 pm, with cold beer on tap – and what many call the best burger in Vienna.
See the menuWhile half of Vienna is at home, the NBA Christmas Games run here from 6 pm. Booking is worth it – the competition for a good seat is modest that night, but the demand isn’t.
Frequently asked questions about the NBA.
Do you show NBA games?
Yes – but not all of them. Most NBA games tip off between 1 am and 4 am Vienna time, when we are closed. Whatever falls inside our opening hours we show live with sound.
Which games run at a reasonable hour?
Above all the Christmas Games on 25 December – the first game starts at 6 pm Vienna time. Plus individual Sunday games from around 7 pm and playoff games at weekends.
When is the 2026/27 season?
From 20 October 2026 to 11 April 2027, followed by the playoffs into June. All-Star Weekend is 19 to 21 February in Phoenix.
Can I request a specific game?
Yes, and that is the best way. Let us know a few days ahead – if the tip-off falls inside our opening hours, we’ll put it on.
Is the sound on?
By arrangement, yes. If football is running at the same time, the NBA gets its own screen and we sort the sound on the night.
Is there food?
The kitchen is open until 11 pm – smashburgers, wings and finger food, with beer on tap.
