There are three types of tickets available for this show: 24-hour-tickets for EUR 45 and 12-hour-tickets (valid between 10pm and 10am) for EUR 25. After 10pm, tickets will only be available on site and if sufficient places are available. These cost EUR 10 per ticket and will be valid as long as you remain inside the auditorium.

The audience boards a small train, goes on short walks and embarks on a trip across the Donauinsel together. There are two starting points: Donaustadtbrücke and Reichsbrücke. Both tours cover the same stations and give a unique perspective on this much-loved island.

Once purchased, tickets can only be exchanged for tickets to Vienna Festival performances (subject to availability), at the latest up to 4 days before the due performance date. In exceptional cases, tickets can be returned if a performance is sold out. No exchange or refund is possible with the subcriptions and the combined prices.

The evening box offices open 1 hour before the start of the performance.

If a performance is sold out, the evening box office will draw up a waiting list when it opens - the advance waiting list will not be adopted by the evening box office. 15 minutes before the performance is due to begin, any remaining tickets will be sold according to the order on the list. Only one name can be added to the list per person, and only one ticket is issued per name; pre-booking is not possible.

Please note that, depending on the production, you may not be admitted to the auditorium if you arrive late.
