AS YOU LIKE IT! - YOUR SUBSCRIPTION TO THE DRESDEN PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA

Do you like to plan for the long term and prefer to have your best plans in your calendar well in advance? Then our festival site subscriptions are just right for you. Or are you one of those who like to choose for themselves, plan more flexibly and also want to book a subscription later in the season? Then one of our new and flexible optional subscriptions is the best choice.

A subscription allows you: 

  • As a season ticket holder, you will receive your seat for the coming season before all other guests.

  • With a fixed subscription you save up to approx. 40% compared to the normal price, with an flexible subscription approx. 20%.

  • If possible, you will receive the same seat in the concerts with a fixed seat subscription.

  • As a fixed subscriber, you have the opportunity to swap within the orchestra concerts up to three times per season without additional charge (subject to availability).

  • As an flexible subscriber, from the 2025/26 season you can choose your desired concerts from one of our four concert series (symphony concerts, chamber concerts, short concerts abFRACKt and/or short concerts Best of Classics) and book them on site at the ticket service or online in the webshop as an individual subscription.

  • We invite you to a presentation of the new concert season in advance.

  • We will inform you exclusively about special offers.
    You can take your friends and family to the concert with a 10% discount

You can book these subscriptions:

Whether you prefer to come more often or just a few times a year, whether you particularly like the works of well-known composers or you like to try something new - each of our large subscriptions has the right concerts for you. Depending on the number of concerts, you can save up to 36% on the normal ticket price. You will find our major subscriptions under A-E. Our big subscriptions are available again for the 26/27 season.

Do you like going to concerts, but it doesn't have to be every week? With our small subscriptions, we have selected four or five concerts for you each week. With our matinee concerts, you can start your Sunday with a musical highlight and have already experienced something wonderful at lunchtime. Or perhaps you are one of those who like to end their working week with a concert on Friday evening. Or you prefer to mix things up and come to us on different days of the week. You can find our small subscriptions under the name G-I.​ Our little subscriptions are available again for the 26/27 season.​​​​​​

You can put together an optional subscription from our symphony concerts, which are marked WA in the calendar. It must include at least four and can include a maximum of ten concerts. You can also book a subscription of your choice from our chamber music, abFRACKt and Best of Klassik series. Depending on the series, it can include a minimum of three and a maximum of eight concerts. It is not possible to swap concert dates from an flexible subscription.

A concert for €7.50? Of course! Pupils and young people (students, trainees, men and women doing their federal voluntary service or a voluntary social year, military service) under the age of 30 can purchase any subscription from the start of sales for €7.50 per concert. These Young People's € subscriptions are not automatically renewed. From the 2025/26 season, the price will be €8 per concert. Within a fixed subscription, up to 3 concert dates can be exchanged at a later date.
