Tickets in Essen - Ruhrpott with world-class standards

Essen is a city that has reinvented itself so convincingly that it is easy to believe it. European Green Capital, UNESCO World Heritage Site Zollverein, cultural metropolis Ruhr: Essen is playing in a league that you wouldn't necessarily expect from a former mining town. And the city's calendar of events proves just that: anyone who buys tickets here gets culture at a level that sets standards nationwide. The Theater und Philharmonie Essen, or TUP for short, is one of the largest five-sector theaters in Germany and stages a program ranging from Verdi to contemporary dance with opera, drama, ballet, the philharmonic orchestra and the Aalto Theatre, regularly ensuring sold-out houses. If you want a seat in a popular production here, you simply cannot avoid advance booking, and subscribers often have access to tickets even earlier. The Box Office is nice, but not a plan. Lichtburg Essen is even more impressive: Germany's largest movie palace with 1,250 seats, a screen measuring around 150 square meters and a real theater stage that hosts concerts, readings and musicals in addition to film premieres. The Lichtburg is no ordinary cinema, it is an institution, and tickets sell out quickly on special evenings. For those who like their cinema a little more hand-picked, Essen's art-house cinemas around the Lichtburg offer an arthouse selection of international arthouse cinema and film series, for which it is also better to reserve tickets early. If you are looking for bold stage art on a smaller scale, the Katakomben-Theater is the right place for you. It offers a varied program of concerts, performances and theater without borders and has a loyal community of regulars who know that good evenings there sell out quickly. With Rausgegangen, you can find all ticket events in Essen at a glance and secure your ticket before the Ruhrpott runs out of seats again.
