Elbphilharmonie

The box office opens 90 minutes before the concert begins.

In the entrance hall, turn right after the Tube and follow the signs for ‘Tickets Konzert’ to the box office on the ground floor. ProArte opens a counter there for its season ticket and single-ticket services at every concert it organises and is happy to answer any questions you may have.

Please note: Due to renovation work on the historic quay walls at Kehrwiederspitze, access from Baumwall to HafenCity and the Elbphilharmonie will be restricted until February 2028: The bridge at the ‘Baumwall’ underground station in the direction of HafenCity/Elbphilharmonie (western Niederbaumbrücke) is closed to cars, buses and cyclists. The opposite direction (eastern Niederbaumbrücke) is not affected by the closures. Pedestrians can continue to use the bridges in both directions.

Bus routes 2, 111 and 607: The ‘Am Kaiserkai (Elbphilharmonie)’ stop will not be served in the direction of HafenCity until mid-May. Please use the ‘U Baumwall’ or ‘Am Sandtorkai’ stops instead. In the direction of Landungsbrücken, the ‘Am Kaiserkai’ stop is fully operational.

Private vehicles: To reach the Elbphilharmonie, please use the nearest bridge (‘Brooksbrücke’, approx. 500 m further on) to travel from the city side via ‘Auf dem Sande’ into HafenCity. Departure from the Elbphilharmonie is not affected.
