What’s the difference between holding onto my tickets vs refunding and purchasing again?

Holding on to your ticket saves you from having to repeat the purchasing process and potentially paying a higher rate at a later stage. If you decide to refund now you may have to pay more for your new ticket.

For those who were lucky enough to secure AUTOBAHN EXPRESS SERVICE during the early bird sale period in 2021, you’ll still be able to access ‘skip the queue’ access to buy your drinks at all bars! Refunding then repurchasing does not guarantee you’ll be able to access this limited edition offer.

For those who have have secured BAVARIAN VIP EXPERIENCE tickets on the already SOLD OUT Festival days, keeping your ticket ensures you have locked in the VIP table for your group and all of the inclusions – a very sought after ticket in a already sold out area. Refunding then repurchasing does not guarantee you’ll be able to secure tickets on the popular Fridays and Saturdays.

We recommended keeping your ticket to use in 2022 as a small way of showing your support for the Festival #KeepYourTicket. Rolling over your tickets is good for you and good for the Festival, including all the staff, artists and contractors involved. Think of it as an investment in the kind of cultural festival that you want when things get “back to a new normal”.
