Buy tickets for events in Gelsenkirchen

Tickets in Gelsenkirchen - more than Schalke, promised

Gelsenkirchen is often reduced to a few big buzzwords, and yes: soccer is religion here. But if you think that the lights go out culturally right after that, then you haven't seriously opened the events calendar of this city. Because Gelsenkirchen can be a stage, and in such a way that you'll forget pretty quickly that you're in the Ruhr region and not in some supposedly more "cultural" city. The best example is the Musiktheater im Revier, or MiR for short: a theater that combines opera, dance, concerts and productions for children and young people under one roof and shows just how lively a municipal theater can be with its own repertoire. Advance booking is your best friend here if you want to secure a good seat, because popular evenings sell out faster than you can say reserve. And yes, the Box Office exists, but it's a last resort, not the plan. If you fancy festivals and regular series, it's also worth taking a look at the city's "Volles Programm" (full program) with formats that pop up in the city throughout the year and give you reliable reasons not to slump into your jogging bottoms at 8:30 pm. Cinema is also stylish in Gelsenkirchen: the Schauburg Filmpalast in Buer is one of the last classic movie palaces in Germany, a place with a lot of history and the kind of screen feeling that automatically makes you sit up a little straighter, even if all you really want is popcorn. The same applies here for particularly good evenings: It's better to secure your ticket in advance rather than end up standing in front of closed doors and pretending you'd planned it just so. And if you still have energy afterwards, the VELTINS Arena is not only a stadium, but also a regular stage for big shows, for which tickets are of course bought in advance, because spontaneous standing-room-only romance tends to be a theory with such formats. In short: Gelsenkirchen can do events. You just have to go. With Rausgegangen, you can find all ticket events in Gelsenkirchen at a glance, secure your ticket and don't have to experience what "sold out" feels like when all you really wanted was a really good evening.
