Questions & answers

Our mission: to be Germany’s most hospitable theatre.

Are food and drink available at the Palast?

Our guests are already able to select their drinks and accompanying food at the theatre bars before the show starts. These will then be served to them at their desired table during the interval.

At what time do doors open and how long is the show?

Doors open one hour before the show begins. The show runs for almost two hours and 30 minutes, including a 25-minute intermission.

Is Wi-Fi available at the Palast?

Complimentary Wi-Fi is available on Claire-Waldoff-Platz outside the theatre box office (_Free_Wifi_Berlin) as well as in the foyer and theatre hall (Mein-Palast).

What are the age recommendations?

The recommended minimum age for the Grand Show is 8 years. Children under the age of 6 will not be admitted.

The recommended minimum age for the kids’ show is 5 years. Children under the age of 3 will not be admitted.

Can I bring the kids?

Children aged 6+ are very welcome at our Grand Shows. Our kids’ shows are suitable for children aged 3+.

Is the show also suitable for foreign guests?

Our Grand Shows are great for international guests as, unlike musicals, revue shows do not have a classic storyline. This means that there aren’t any spoken texts to understand – so anyone can enjoy the show.

Can I take food and drinks into the theatre hall?

We ask for your understanding that the narrow seating rows mean that food and drinks cannot be taken into the theatre hall. Food and drinks are available at the bars in the foyer before the show as well as during the interval.

Is there a dress code?

No, there isn’t any dress code. Please feel free to wear whatever you feel comfortable in. Whether that is smart evening wear or a comfortable top and trousers is entirely up to you. Please do respect this special occasion though – tracksuits and trainers are not appropriate!

Do I have to use the cloakroom and how much does it cost?

Coats, jackets, backpacks, suitcases and bags of more than 45x40x20 cm in size may not be taken into the theatre hall and must therefore be stored in the cloakroom.

Are photos, filming and recordings permitted during events?

Due to various copyrights (e.g. for the lighting design, costumes and scenery), photos, video and sound recordings are not permitted during performances. Photos and videos may only be taken for private purposes during the final applause.

Is the Palast accessible to people with disabilities?

The Palast was opened in 1984 when access for people with disabilities was unfortunately not yet foreseen in all areas. Today, access to the Palast is very good and people with disabilities are able to access most areas of the theatre. Four wheelchair spaces are available in the theatre hall. An induction loop allows guests with impaired hearing to also experience the show acoustics. Please do not hesitate to contact us to discuss the optimal seating arrangements for your visit. Simply visit the box office, give us a call (+49-30-2326 2327) or use our online chat function. You can then also book seats directly. For more information on access, please see Guests with disabilities.
