I can't make it to the venue 15 minutes before the concert starts. What can I do?
15 minutes before the start of the concert, seats may be allocated to people waiting without a reservation. Your reservation will then be cancelled.

Yes, of course. The Ruhr University offers barrier-free access to the Audimax level at several entry points. In the concert itself, you will be provided with a seat at ground level. It is also possible to use your wheelchair etc. as a seat.

Disabled parking spaces in P3 are signposted at the entrance to the parking garage and are accessible despite the current construction site. The elevator from there ("blue tower") to the Forumplatz is also available during events. Should technical difficulties arise, you can request an escort service from the Info Uni-Mitte to use alternative elevators, e.g. in the HZO: Tel. 0234/32-27001

Due to large crowds, we recommend arriving a little earlier.
If you have any questions, please contact us!

Unfortunately not. Admission into the hall begins 60 minutes before the start of the concert. If you like arriving early, there are pretzels and refreshments available until the start, but we are not allowed to let anyone into the building earlier than 60 minutes. Your ticket will guarantee you a seat. We would also like to inform you that the foyer may only be used for catering purposes.

If you can provide a disability card or otherwise valid documentation, you will be given priority access to the Audimax foyer. Should you have any queries on site, please contact the admissions assistants. 

Yes, you will be able to buy cold refreshments and fresh pretzels at the concert.

Depending on the weather conditions, you can leave your belongings in our cloakroom free of charge. We accept no liability for the cloakroom.
