Safety
last update: 10. March 2023
ventilation
The ventilation system that we had installed in 2020 meets the latest technical standards. It exchanges all of the air in the theatre hall with fresh air up to eight times per hour. Integrated probes monitor the ambient air quality and continuously take measurements to ensure that its quality remains virtually the same as that of the fresh air outdoors (below 500 ppm on average).
The concentration of aerosols is thus reduced to a minimum – and this in turn minimises the risk of infection with Covid-19, flu and other respiratory diseases.
The TÜV technical inspection body has awarded the Palast its quality seal for infection control for its ventilation system. A report by the German theatre technical society (DTHG) published in November 2022 also confirmed a “minimal risk of infection” during a two-hour stay in our theatre hall, even at full capacity with 1,900 guests.
seal of quality
In 2021, we were awarded the TÜV quality seal for our Covid-19 hygiene policy. Our theatre therefore meets all of the requirements for health protection and hygiene measures. Ensuring our guests a safe show visit.
In October 2022, the TÜV reviewed our hygiene measures and extended the quality seal’s validity to 2023.
You are covered
We are still living in unpredictable times. As a state-run theatre, the Palast therefore offers its guests a triple Feel Safe promise:
The Palast is the first and up until now the only theatre to have gained the TÜV seal of quality “Tested Covid-19 Infection Protection” for its procedures and its hygiene concepts. Good to know: the new cutting edge ventilation system replaces the entire volume of air in the hall with fresh air up to eight times an hour.
If a performance is cancelled, you can be sure of getting your money back within three weeks – automatically and without you having to put in a claim, as we are not implementing the legally permitted voucher system.
If something comes up and you can’t attend the show after all, you can rebook the ticket you purchased for another date, up until two hours before the performance starts, without giving a reason, or you can exchange it for a voucher.
This option is not available for tickets purchased from third-party vendors.
IN THE FOYER
We do everything we can to ensure that our guests and employees enjoy a safe show experience.
The foyer and theatre hall can only be accessed with a valid ticket. Service staff are stationed at all entrances to check tickets (also during performances and in the interval).
All guests must pass through the security gates at the theatre entrances (even when coming back inside, e.g. after smoking). The detectors are also safe for guests with a pacemaker but can be bypassed upon presentation of a pacemaker pass.
The Palast reserves the right to have the backpacks and bags of individual or all guests checked by trained service staff in guests’ presence.
“Coats, jackets, backpacks, suitcases and bags of more than 45x40x20 cm in size must be stored in the cloakroom (free of charge).
We highly recommend that you always keep personal items such as keys and wallets on your person.”
