Tickets for Reeperbahn Festival are available exclusively through our official online shop, even during the festival (subject to availability).
Please note that tickets purchased through platforms other than our ticket shop may be invalid. Tickets from secondary markets – which are often offered at inflated prices – are frequently counterfeit or have already been blocked and therefore do not grant admission.
Resale is only permitted via our official partner TicketSwap. There, you can buy and sell tickets easily and securely. TicketSwap handles the payment and the transfer of ownership, and it issues a new ticket. This ensures the highest possible level of security.
Reeperbahn Festival Tickets do not need to be personalized. Personalization is only required for Conference Ticket holders.
Once you have purchased your Conference Ticket, it must be personalized.
Please note: The ticket is only valid once personalization has been completed. Personalization must be completed before check-in.

Togetherness
We want to create a festival where different perspectives are given a voice and as many people as possible feel welcome.
To that end, we ensure balanced representation across our programme areas and are committed to gender equality and diversity. We additionally promote inclusive access through accessible services, information in plain language, and a digital infrastructure that is as user-friendly as possible. In our communications, we also place great importance on using language that is both sensitive to diversity and inclusive.
We are committed to continuously reducing the festival’s environmental impact. Our measures include (among other things):
- predominantly vegetarian and vegan catering
- reusable solutions for food and drink
- the reduced use of printed materials
- the reuse of materials and stage branding
- waste separation at the festival site
- more efficient logistics and transport planning
- the encouragement of the most sustainable possible journeys by train, public transport, and bicycle
