Ticket Return
Tickets sold cannot be returned or exchanged. If, as a gesture of goodwill, a return is nevertheless permitted - against a cancellation voucher - a handling fee of up to €8.00 per ticket will be charged.
Cast changes and other last-minute changes to the performance schedule, in particular interruptions, a late start to the performance or a concert performance, do not generally entitle the holder to return tickets. Exceptions to this rule may be determined by the theatre management in individual cases.
If a different work is performed instead of the one announced when the ticket was purchased, tickets purchased can be returned free of charge at the box office until the performance begins in exchange for a voucher. If a performance is cancelled, the DOR will endeavour to offer a replacement performance. If this is not possible, a voucher will be granted. Such a voucher may also be obtained in exchange for the return of the ticket if a performance has been cancelled, provided that less than half of the pure performance time (excluding intermission) has been shown at the time of cancellation. If a performance has to be abandoned after half, all claims for compensation are excluded. The aforementioned claims may be asserted in writing to DOR within 14 days of the performance date. A claim for refund of the admission price expires if it is not asserted within this period.
