How to buy tickets

In addition to being the home of the Berliner Philharmoniker, the Philharmonie also plays host to other artists, ensembles and orchestras as regular guests. When purchasing tickets, please note whether your chosen event is a Berliner Philharmoniker Foundation concert or a guest event – recognisable by the organiser's note on the concert details page. The Berliner Philharmoniker Foundation only sells concert tickets for its own events.

Online

Simply select the concert you want from our concert calendar and book tickets online. The respective advance booking start date can also be found in the calendar.

In addition to the ticket price, we charge a service fee of € 3 per ticket.
