Just like in Habsburg times - every year on 'Emperor's Birthday' on 18 August, the 'Emperor's Mass' is celebrated in the Catholic parish church in Bad Ischl.
Thousands of visitors line the streets as members of the Habsburg family, members of former noble families and delegations of traditional regiments from the former crown lands and several citizen guards make their way to the fair. Before the mass, the delegations line up and the commander of the parade reports to the Habsburg family and requests further orders. After Archduke Markus has walked down the line of honour, the flag bearers enter the festively decorated church.
The imperial anthem is also sung at the following mass. Following the mass, the regiments march with musical accompaniment from the "Bürgermusik Bad Ischl" and the "Hoch- und Deutschmeister k.u.k. Wiener Regimentskapelle IR4" into the Imperial Park to pay their respects to His Imperial Highness Archduke Markus Salvator of Habsburg Lorraine.
