I have a question about my tickets


For ticket, discount and refund questions, please go to this page.

What time do the doors to the hall open?


The doors to the hall usually open 30 minutes (Main Hall) or 15 minutes (Small Hall) prior to the concert - times are subject to change. With pop concerts, this also depends on the sound check.

Am I allowed to take pictures during a concert?


It is not allowed to make professional photo, film, video or audio recordings during the concerts. If the artist does not object, you may make recordings with a mobile phone, without light/flash. We ask that you do not disturb other visitors while doing so.

Can I bring my own snacks and drinks?


It's not allowed to bring your own snacks and drinks to our concerts.

Drinks included


When a drink is included in your ticket for pop, jazz, and world music concerts, you receive a token for a drink after your ticket has been scanned. For concerts without an intermission, you may redeem the token before or after the concert.

For all classical concerts, a refreshment during intermission is automatically included in your ticket. To minimize waiting time at the bar during these concerts, the drinks are already prepared for you in our foyers. If you can't find your favorite drink there, our bar staff will be happy to get it for you!

For safety reasons, it is not allowed to bring glassware/dishes into the halls. If you haven't finished your drink before the concert starts or during the intermission and you would like to bring it into the hall, you can get a hardcover plastic cup at one of our bars. At concerts and festivals with free choice of place, drinks are only served in hardcover plastic cups, and these cups are always allowed inside the hall.

Hoe laat sluit de bar?

De bars in de foyers sluiten 10 minuten voor aanvang van het concert. Tijdens de pauze en na afloop van het concert geniet u natuurlijk van een lekker drankje. 

Late arrivals


Unfortunately, late arrivals cannot always be admitted to the concert. The center of Eindhoven is particularly busy on Friday evenings (shops are open until 21h00) and on Sundays. PLease take this into account when planning your visit.

How do I travel sustainably to Muziekgebouw Eindhoven?

The content of a concert is entirely up to the artist. Since we have no input in this, we cannot consider this request.
