Secondhand tickets will be available again in 2023!

On sold-out festival days, the Secondhand ticket exchange will take place from 22.00 and until 02.30 each day.

Exchange/sale/trade will take place exclusively down at the valley station in the Secondhand Meeting Zone!

And this is how it works: If you as a ticket owner want to rush off on a sold-out day before the end of the festival, you can sell your wristband to interested parties from 10 p.m. onwards in the exchange zone (and only there!) directly in front of the Gurtenbahn valley station. The price is up to the trading partners. If there is an agreement, the exchange takes place at the second-hand ticket counter: old wristband (seller) gone, new wristband (buyer) on. The Gurtenfestival only charges a fee of CHF 5.00 for the exchange of the new wristband. Otherwise, the Gurtenfestival AG assumes no liability or guarantee.

Important: Wristbands will only be issued for the current festival day. Sold or exchanged multi-day and comfort wristbands become “normal” day wristbands, which only grant admission on the current festival day!    

Donation box mountain station

If you come down from the Gurten earlier, you can also put your wristband in the donation box next to the Troubleshooting Cashless & Ticketing until 9.30 p.m. at the mountain station – and donate it.

These donated wristbands will be handed over to new visitors at the secondhand ticket counter from 10 p.m. for a fee of CHF 5.00.
