One of the social program's high lights was the traditional ABB Evening. As usual all the details were kept secret until the very last minute. Guests were picked up by coaches from the various hotels—and found themselves after a short ride behind the scenes of the most famous stages of the German language and world class opera houses - what is called the Depots of the Bundestheater. Presentations of diverse areas of Austrian theatrical performances plus high class Swiss hospitality contributed a lot to an unforgettable evening.
