Group Service

The following terms for performances at the Semperoper Dresden apply to groups of more than 20 persons (these terms and conditions do not apply to third-party events and guest performances):

Terms for early bookings
You are required to pay a deposit on bookings for performances that are less than 8 months hence. This deposit must be paid within 8 weeks of the booking date. The final invoice will be sent to you 4 months before the performance date. This must be settled within 4 weeks.

General terms and conditions
You are required to pay a deposit on bookings for performances that are less than 8 months hence. This deposit must be paid within 4 weeks of the booking date. The final invoice will be sent to you 4 months before the performance date. This must be settled within 4 weeks. If the desired performance is within the next 5 months then you will receive an invoice for full payment, which must be settled within 4 weeks.

You will be sent an invoice by post or by email. The down payment of 10 percent of the ticket price is not an additional fee, but is deducted from the ticket price. The final amount due corresponds to the sum remaining after deduction of any advance payment. An extension option past the invoice due date is generally not possible. Please note that reserved tickets will be automatically released for sale after expiry of the deposit deadline if you have not contacted us and have not made payment.

Ticket returns 
There is no charge on reductions or cancellations of group bookings prior to deposit payment. Please inform us in writing of any such changes.
A reduction in the number of reserved tickets made between the deposit payment and final payment date shall entail a cancellation fee of two euros per ticket. This fee will be deducted from the deposit. The Semperoper Dresden may take back purchased tickets on consignment without any legal obligation. In particular, the Semperoper Dresden is not obliged to offer such tickers for prioritized sale. Any income from sold tickets will be paid after the event. The consignment fee amounts to 10 percent of the ticket price (at least 6 Euro per ticket). Any unsold tickets will be returned to you by mail.

Special terms apply to the following performances

• Opera and ballet premieres at the Semperoper Dresden
• Symphony concerts of the Staatskapelle Dresden

When booking tickets to any of these events, you will receive an invoice for full payment tobe made no later than 8 weeks after the date of booking.
