34C3 Tickets: Status and Open Sale

Tue, 03 Oct 2017 09:24:27 +0000

Since August, the first tickets for 34C3 can be bought using a voucher. This voucher phase will continue until October, 15th 2017 or until the ticket quota assigned for this phase is empty. At this point, all issued vouchers will be invalid with the exception of Angel vouchers which are valid until November, 15th 2017.

After the end of the first phase, we will open the ticket shop to everyone interested. To distribute chances to buy a ticket more fairly, we will distribute the remaining tickets into three quotas on three dates:

Thursday, 2017-10-19 20:00 CEST,
Sunday, 2017-10-29 15:00 CET (attention: end of daylight saving time!),
Tuesday, 2017-11-21 11:00 CET.

The ticket prices are available at https://tickets.events.ccc.de/34c3/. Our FAQ at https://tickets.events.ccc.de/34c3/page/faq/ should answer most questions.

We will put all available tickets on sale on those three dates. Therefore, there will be no ticket sale on site, provided that the presale tickets will be sold out.

The whole process of the presale is explained in more detail at https://tickets.events.ccc.de/34c3/docs/.
The ticket team is happy to answer any questions not answered by the FAQ at 34c3-tickets@cccv.de.

34C3 Presale

Wed, 09 Aug 2017 18:36:51 +0000

It’s that time of the year again – we’re opening the presale for this year’s Chaos Communication Congress!

Again, there will be two phases, with the first one starting today.
During the first phase, we’d like to invite the core of our community to participate in the presale.
It will end as soon as no more tickets are left in the pool for this phase, but by 2017-10-15 at the latest.

During the second phase we’ll open the presale to everybody on a number of pre-announced time slots. We’ll announce these open presale dates at least two weeks ahead of time on this site.

We’ll offer all tickets for presale. Im case they don’t sell out, we’ll offer the rest on-site in Leipzig. We’ll tell you until 2017-12-20 whether this is going to be the case or not.

Planning an event of this scale at a new location comes with many uncertainties. As best as we could, we have calculated the average price necessary to make 34C3 pay for itself – you’ll find details and a chart plotting the average ticket price of currently sold tickets at tickets.events.ccc.de/.
If you are able to support us, please do!

You can find a more detailed explanation of the presale phases and the voucher system at tickets.events.ccc.de/34c3/docs/. If you have any questions, please refer to the FAQ at tickets.events.ccc.de/34c3/page/faq or contact us at 34c3-tickets@cccv.de.

See you in December!

29C3 – Tickets and Pricing

Tue, 09 Oct 2012 21:15:49 +0000

29C3 will cost us much more than standard tickets priced at 80 EUR will pay. Thus we’ll sell supporter tickets for 100 and 120 EUR. Please consider buying one of these. Help us minimize our losses and support others who can’t afford paying much more! Thanks a lot! :)

Moving the 29C3 to Hamburg will cost a lot of money. As far as we know yet, 80 EUR for a standard ticket will not cover those costs, even if a lot more people will show up at the conference. If we wanted 29C3 to make no loss, based on our current calculation, the price for a conference ticket should be something around 100 to 120 EUR.

Anyway, we will not raise the price for a standard ticket, keeping it at 80 EUR, since we know that some of you can’t afford paying more. For those of you who can’t even pay 80 EUR, please contact 29c3-friends@cccv.de and tell us a bit about yourself, what you’re doing and how much you could pay. Be sure, we’ll find a solution.

BUT, if you feel you can afford it, and if you feel that Congress might be worth it, please consider buying a supporter ticket. We sell these in two versions, one for 100 and the other one for 120 EUR. Which one you choose, if any, depends on you.

If you want your company to buy a ticket for you, or if you’d simply like to pay a bit more, we sell business tickets for 350 EUR. Please note that this is the only ticket type that comes with an invoice including a name and an address.

28C3 – Can’t Afford to Pay the Full Price?

Wed, 02 Nov 2011 23:49:20 +0000

Since we forgot to mention it in the first place: Yes, we do have a 28c3-friends request address for people who can’t afford to pay the full ticket price. We’ve added information to http://events.ccc.de/congress/2011/wiki/Tickets:

If you or someone you know can’t afford to pay the full price for a ticket, send a mail to 28c3-friends@cccv.de. Please tell us, why this person can’t pay the full price and why he or she should take part in 28C3 nevertheless. Usually we agree on some affordable price. But please keep in mind that tickets are already very cheap and that we can handle only a limited number of such requests. So, please think twice before sending us a mail to that address.

If you want to try your luck, you still need to get a ticket in the on-line ticket sales. Just choose any ticket type and tell us the user name. If we agree on some price, we’ll edit your order afterwards. If we don’t agree, you may just not pay within 2 weeks.

Camp 2011: Ticket Shop Opened

Fri, 20 May 2011 01:26:12 +0000

We’re selling tickets for the Camp now. For more information, please read the Tickets page in our wiki.

The main presale for 27C3 is beginning

Tue, 09 Nov 2010 22:09:36 +0000

Dear attendants in spe,

as announced earlier, the second batch of tickets for 27C3 will be available accompanying the initial Fahrplan release.

At Thursday, November 11th at 9 p.m. CET (that is 8 p.m. UTC), we will release the largest of our three allotments with 2,000 tickets. Log into our presale system. While the first batch was designated to hackers with rather long journeys to allow booking flights and hotels early, most tickets were sold to Germans. We have to rethink the policy for 28C3.

Please watch out for the booby traps below, so you won’t be left unhappy without a ticket:

To protect us – and thus your tickets – from automated hoarding, accounts can not be used for ordering tickets until 24 hours after you create them. If you don’t have one yet, get one soon.
Please confirm your order by clicking “Confirm Order” after selecting your tickets.
Tickets have to be paid within 14 days. Overdue tickets are returned to the pool.
Orders we received payments for will be flagged as “payment confirmed”. If that does not happen for some reason, please do not hesitate to contact us.
“Golden Tokens” are only valid until November 30th, so don’t procrastinate too long. Unused tokens are returned to the pool.

Heads up, Pre-Sale Begins

Sat, 09 Oct 2010 05:05:22 +0000

You’ve probably waited most of two weeks for this: The pre-sale for the 27th Chaos Communication Congress tickets will start this weekend. To be precise: We will open our server ports tomorrow morning, Sunday (October 10th), at 10:10 Berlin time (08:10 UTC).

Category	Price
Standard	EUR 70
Nachwuchs (below the age of 18)	EUR 25
Members of the CCC e. V.	EUR 45

For more details, e. g. business tickets, see our wiki and the FAQ.

This will be the first batch of three, offering 800 tickets. The second and largest batch will be available two days after we’ve published the “Fahrplan” in early November. The last and smallest batch with the remaining tickets will be available in December.

Volunteers of the 26C3 (Engel) will receive their “golden token” today, which will be sent to the email address they used in the “Engelsystem” last year.

During the course of the day, we’ll publish detailed instructions on how to use the pre-sale system.
