Frequently Asked Questions
The tent is accessible.
For the Grand Chapiteau only a limited number of wheelchair spaces are approved, therefore, we asked you to buy wheelchair tickets (valid for wheelchair user and a carer). We ask wheelchair users to buy their ticket via the Tollwood-Tickethotline (089-38 38 50 0 / Mon – Thu von 9:00 – 17:00 hrs, Fri 9:00 – 15:00 hrs).
There are specially reserved spaces for wheelchair users at the Spiegelzelt.
For your safety and the safety of others, it is obligatory to use the predetermined spaces for wheelchairs, as i.e. escape routes have to be kept clear. Moreover, the view from these spaces is according to the needs of wheelchair users.
