Elevate Festival Info 2025
Entry & Capacity
For events in smaller venues, we recommend arriving early. Some locations have limited capacity. During peak times, there may be waiting times or temporary entry stops. Please understand – once a venue reaches capacity, access must be temporarily restricted. More details can be found in our terms and conditions.
Pre-sale tickets can be exchanged for wristbands at the respective venues. There is no need to exchange anything in advance. The box offices will provide all the key festival information and open at the event start times according to the lineup.
Got a ticket for the Acousmonium at the Minoritensaal? Please arrive early – it starts on time, and late entry is not permitted (except during the break). If you have a Festival Pass and want to attend the Acousmonium event, please collect a numbered ticket at the box office by 19:45 – while stocks last!
