Ein Abend In Wien was a two-day music festival held in 1991 at De Doelen in Rotterdam .

It is seen as the successor of Pandora's Music Box (1983 - 1985) and the predecessor of Lowlands' new style. Willem Venema was one of the organizers.

Innovative about this festival, in addition to the programming of alternative music and literature, was also the attention for decoration and the so-called phenomena: small theatrical interruptions. Performances included Sonic Youth , Nirvana , Miranda Sex Garden , Nine Inch Nails , Smashing Pumpkins (their first European performance), Carter USM , Paris and literary readings by Nick Cave among others.

As part of the promotional campaign, a cheap promotional CD had been released.
