Important information for our customers with festival passes and day passes: It is first come, first served-principle that applies, but we give priority to our guests with day passes and festival passes at the entrance to the concerts. At most of our concerts, you will usually be able to get into the concerts without a problem, if you are out in good time.

For sold-out concerts, there is the following seat guarantee for festival and day pass holders:
