Prefer buying in person? Tickets are available at these locations in Opava:
Discounts
We offer discounted tickets for children aged 4–15 and young people aged 15–18. You can also take advantage of group deals (e.g. 5+1 free, 8+2 free), as well as discounts for ISIC card holders and seniors.
Visitors with a ZTP disability card receive a 50% discount. For ZTP/P card holders, one accompanying person is admitted free of charge. Tickets for ZTP and ZTP/P holders can be purchased on site or at the VAMA ticket shop in Opava.
Wristband exchange
When you arrive, simply exchange your ticket for a festival wristband at the accreditation point by the Church of St Adalbert (Kostel sv. Vojtěcha) on Dolní Square. Our team will place the wristband directly on your wrist, so it’s ready to go straight away – it isn’t possible to collect it and put it on later. This helps us keep things fair and ensure a smooth, relaxed festival experience for everyone.
