Ticket validity if the open-air performance is cancelled or takes place indoors due to bad weather

Bregenz Festival policy is to proceed with open-air performances even if the weather looks inclement, and we wish to stress that performances will go ahead on the Seebühne even in the event of light rain. We therefore recommend visitors to bring waterproof clothing, but not umbrellas, because these obscure the view and adversely affect the acoustics.

Tickets for category 1, festival-lounge and premium-tickets

If the lake performance is cancelled or abandoned after less than 90 minutes, these tickets are valid for the semi-staged version in the Festspielhaus and are not refundable. 

Tickets for categories 2 to 5 are valid only for Floating Stage performances

If a performance is transferred to the Festspielhaus, ticket holders will be refunded the ticket value if the open-air performance does not take place at all or is abandoned after less than 60 minutes.
