Advance booking and box office

Advance ticket sales begin on the 1st of the previous month (or the following working day).

For members of the GFFF, advance ticket sales begin exclusively four days before the official advance sale.

Pre-ordered tickets go on sale to the general public if they are not collected half an hour before the start of the event.

There will be no admission after the start of the event! Visitors arriving late can only be admitted after the end of the first picture/set.

Important note regarding programme changes:

The Folkwang University of the Arts sees itself as an educational institution, and many of the events are part of an examination. It is therefore sometimes the case that performances are cancelled at short notice.

We therefore ask our out-of-town guests in particular to follow the daily press and to inform themselves on the internet. Here you will find the daily updated event dates. You can also find out about changes at short notice by calling 0201 4903-231 after office hours and listening to a recorded announcement.

Thank you for your understanding!
