Instant Online Purchase: Festival Tickets 2019
On April 7, 2019, at 2 PM (CEST / UTC+2), ticket sales for the Bayreuth Festival 2019 will begin via the instant online purchase process, meaning without the often years-long and tedious waiting times.
As in 2013, tickets for the upcoming festival performances will again be available for instant online purchase this year. Up to 4 tickets per work, but a total of only up to 8 tickets, can be purchased, regardless of the number of purchase transactions. Due to high demand, only 2 tickets per work can be purchased from price category 7 (PK 7).
Prerequisites for participating in the instant online purchase are a customer account with the Bayreuth Festival and a verified email address.
If you do not yet have a customer account, you can register by April 3 (11:59 PM) (http://ticketshop.bayreuther-festspiele.de). The email address can be verified until April 4 (11:59 AM). After that, for technical reasons, new registration will only be possible again from April 9 (2 PM)!
As we strive to make the Bayreuth Festival accessible to as many interested parties as possible, we find it fair to prioritize, for the first 24 hours of the 2019 instant online purchase, those interested parties who have not yet been able to obtain tickets through the online or written order process.
The currently valid General Terms and Conditions for instant online purchase, further information, and detailed instructions for participating in the instant online purchase are available on our homepage (https://www.bayreuther-festspiele.de/tickets-service/tickets-kaufen/infos-zum-sofortkauf/).
Bayreuth Festival GmbH points out that the only authorized point of sale for tickets is the ticket office of Bayreuth Festival GmbH. All other ticket offers, for example on internet platforms, online ticket exchanges, or through tour operators, where the selling price often far exceeds the original price of the tickets, are not authorized by Bayreuth Festival GmbH. Bayreuth Festival GmbH reserves the right to block and invalidate tickets from such offers.
