Visitors with Hearing Impairments
Starting in 2024, Bayreuth Festival has installed an induction loop system for people with hearing impairments. This option is available for seats accessed via Door III and includes rows 9 to 13, comprising more than 200 seats in price categories A1, A2, B1, B2, B3.
Users of hearing aids and hearing implants with induction or telephone coils can thus enjoy direct hearing and better speech understanding. Please activate the induction or telephone coil of your hearing system during the performance.
