Candidates for renormalizable gauge theory models on Moyal spaces constructed recently have non-trivial vacua. We show that these models support vacuum states that are invariant under both global rotations and symplectic isomorphisms which form a global symmetry group for the action. We compute the explicit expression in position space for these vacuum configurations in two and four dimensions.
