Advance Sale

Advance ticket sales always begin on the 3rd calendar day of the previous month. Should the beginning of advance ticket sales fall on a Sunday or public holiday, the advance sales will begin on the following working day (Monday to Saturday). 

We would like to ask you to collect reserved tickets at the box office, no later than one day before the performance (or five days before a premiere). Unpaid tickets will otherwise be released for purchase by other visitors. Paid-for tickets can be collected at the box office on the evening of the performance.

You can either collect or purchase tickets at our theatre box office at Berliner Ensemble or order them online in our web-shop.

Here is an overview of our seats and ticket prices at Neues Haus and Großes Haus.

Performances with English surtitles

The Berliner Ensemble offers a special service for our international audience and visitors to Berlin from all over the world: Several times a month, we will present selected performances on the main stage at Großes Haus with surtitles in English. You can find the dates here and in our monthly programme; the performances with surtitles will be specifically marked. Our box office staff will be happy to tell you from which seats you will have a good sight-line to the surtitles. For the best view of both stage and surtitles, we recommend seats in the balconies (1. Rang, 2. Rang) or in the stalls (Parkett) from row 13. Seats in the side boxes have a partially obstructed view.
