Hojotoho, welcome

to this year’s Bayreuth Festival. Even if you are unable to come all the way to Bayreuth personally, the festival is coming directly to you with our updated website, our new social media channels – and with cinema screenings of the premiere of Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg.

Almost 58,000 tickets for this year’s festival have been sold to fans from more than 78 countries. If you have been unable to purchase one of these coveted tickets, you can still attend the festival opening: The Meistersinger von Nürnberg will be broadcast to selected cinemas across Europe, and in Germany alone the premiere is being screened in 140 cinemas.
