When the advance sale is closed, it is possible to buy remaining tickets at the evening box office. Our volunteers will offer you the opportunity to buy tickets and will be happy to answer any questions you may have.
Since last year, we have been offering the possibility to pay cashless at the evening box office for some events. At selected events you will have the option and choice at the box office of how you would like to pay for your ticket - cash or card.

Why five prices?
With our solidarity ticket system, we want to invite everyone to be part of our events. The idea is: everyone pays what they can. That's why we offer tickets for 6 to 36 euros for all events where we can. Each ticket gives you the same access to the respective event. This means that the ticket you choose does not determine your seat, admission time or anything else. The price should be fair and based on solidarity.
We want to break down economic barriers and enable as many people as possible to visit the festival. If it is possible for you, we would be delighted if you choose a Spendierhosen ticket or a Große-Geste ticket. This will help us to create a fair and fair system for everyone. Thank you for your support in making culture accessible to everyone!
Note for people with disabilities:
If the sign "B" is noted on the disabled person's ID, the person accompanying the disabled person has free admission to all events.
