Ticket prices

To give you the perfect ball experience, we recommend reserving a table seat in addition to your ticket. This way you have a guaranteed seat throughout the entire ball night, can order food and drinks directly to your table and do not have to queue at the buffet. Live music will be played in many rooms after the opening.

The number of seats at a table varies per room. In most cases, a table seats 4 or 6 people. You can purchase individual seats or an entire table.
Please note that all tables are outside the ballroom.
All table shares can only be booked in conjunction with regular tickets.
