Front-of-row areas

Front-of-Row tickets - exclusive and up close!

After last year's premiere, there will be another opportunity in 2026 to secure a place in the exclusive Front-of-row area to be secured. These places refer to the chair and meadow areas within the three fingers in the area directly adjacent to the fireworks show.

The limited offer is aimed at all those who want to enjoy the International Fireworks Competition in the Herrenhausen Gardens in a particularly relaxed and comfortable way.

This is how it works:
The front-of-row tickets can only be purchased in the ticket shop in addition to the regular admission ticket.
Guests show their separate front-of-row ticket at the main entrance “Prinzentor” and receive the corresponding access wristband. Access is then directly at the booked area, i.e. one of three so-called „fingers“.
Important: The front-of-row ticket only entitles you to access the booked „finger“; regular admission to the event is required separately.

What makes front-of-row tickets so special?

With a front-of-row ticket, you can sit or picnic directly in the three so-called „fingers“ - i.e. right next to the fireworks area. The big advantage: while all other guests have to leave the area for the fireworks and move to standing room, guests can remain seated in the three fingers and enjoy the entire evening in a relaxed manner - from the supporting programme to the grand finale in the sky. In addition, there is complete flexibility: with the wristband, access is possible at any time - without any crowds and with maximum freedom of movement.

up close and personal: sit or picnic directly in the three so-called Fingers - in the immediate vicinity of the fireworks area.

exclusive advantage: remain relaxed even after the safety evacuation. 

Flexibility: come and go with the ribbon at any time, no stress - full freedom of movement.

more comfort: more space, less crowds thanks to strictly limited tickets.

The three zones:

The exclusive pitches are divided into three zones:

  • Orange Zone
  • Blue zone
  • Pink zone 

Please note: All zones offer seating (on gravelled areas along the flower beds) as well as grassy areas (for visitors with picnic blankets).

The number of seats in the respective zones is limited and can only be purchased in advance in the ticket shop: To the ticket shop
