Ordering Tickets

For all events organized by the Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde, advance ticket sales for members begin two months before the performance, unless otherwise stated. The general presale will start one week after. These dates also apply to the advance sale of standing-room tickets. On the first day of advance sales of individual tickets for members, the Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde reserves the right to limit the purchase limit for each member up to a maximum of four tickets.

Ticket orders in any form are binding. The ticket price will be debited via your chosen means of payment. The booked tickets can be claimed at the concert box-office during opening hours or at the evening box-office from 1 hour before the start of the event on presentation of your credit card or booking confirmation. Please note that cancellation of booked tickets is not possible.

For this purpose, we need the original concert tickets. Depending on which tickets you place on commission, different commission fees will be retained in the event of success. The money resulting from ticket sales can be collected until the end of the respective season at the concert box-office from Mon-Fri 09:00 – 18:00 and Sat 09:00 – 13:00 upon presentation of the commission slip.
