(Groups are restricted to no more than 4 adults as well as their minor children, or to those persons who live in the same household.)

Visitor documentation for contact-tracing purposes in the eventuality of Covid-19 infections: The designated seating is either assigned to a specific person, including their name and telephone number, by the ticketing system, or an attendance list is maintained – including names and telephone numbers – by row or seating block. Registration is obligatory in order to contact-trace and inform affected persons in the event of a Covid-19 infection.

• PCR test by an authorized body (e.g. laboratory): period of validity 72 hours
• Antigen test by an authorized body (e.g. pharmacy, test street): validity period 48 hours
• Antigen test for personal use with digital recording: validity period 24 hours
• Antigen test under supervision in the respective company: only applies to the specific occasion

In order to avoid crowds, the entrances to events open earlier (usually one hour before the event begins). You can find out the exact times from the respective organizer. If the space permits, several entrances are available for attending an event.

In all public places, the minimum distance of two meters to people who do not live in the same household must be observed. The wearing of an FFP2 mask is also mandatory in closed rooms.

If any of the attendees subsequently show symptoms of Covid-19 infection, all attendees can be contacted by the organizers without delay.

Our state health authorities strongly recommend that we collect the contact data of all attendees and save this information for 28 days after the event. After 4 weeks, data privacy laws require us to delete such contact data. This constitutes legitimate data processing in accordance with Art.6 ( 1 ) ( f ) GDPR, since it serves health safety measures for contact persons.

If you begin to feel symptoms of a Corona infection after attending an event, please inform the event organizer immediately and contact a doctor. If Covid-19 is suspected, the event organizer will contact all attendees without delay.
