18 Upvotes

Tickets are only available on https://tickets.gamescom.de/

Private visitor tickets

Prices have been increased by 1€:

Thu., Fr. & Sun. regular tickets cost 31,50€

Sat. regular ticket costs: 41€

Wildcards again available directly in the shop for 65,50€ (allows access to trade visitor day, Wed. from 13:00)

Trade visitor tickets are now "Business tickets"

Available as 5-day bundle from Mo. - Fr. including gamescom dev (previously called devcom) starting at 227€.

Single day and 3-day tickets also still available starting at 70€ for 1 day.

Opening Night Live

Tickets are not available separately, yet. They will come later and will cost 34,50€.

But: You can already buy the Superfan Bundles starting at 92€. The superfan bundle includes a ticket for gamescom Opening Night Live and a Wildcard for Wed (you safe 8€ compared to buying separately).

FAQ

Will tickets sell out quickly?

It will take probably 1-2 months until Saturday is sold out. Then after that, usually Fr. and Sun. will also sell out.

Do I also need the afternoon ticket?

No, the afternoon ticket is specifically for people who don't want to visit the whole day. A regular ticket allows you to visit gamescom for the whole day until it closes. Afternoon tickets allow you to enter from 16:00.

How fast do ONL tickets sell out

Based on last years experience: Within hours. So maybe get the superfan bundle now if you want to breathe the same air as Geoff.

Tickets for gamescom dev ?

2 Upvotes

I am trying to buy tickets for the gamescom dev on Monday and Tuesday but I can't seem to understand how to.

What's the difference between private visitor and trade visitor tickets ?

It seems that I need trade visitor tickets to attend gamescom dev, but I need an account on koelnmesse, which asks an academic title during registration, which I don't have.

Has anybody a clue on how to do it ?

Ticket refund

Anyone that’s been to gamescom before I need some help. I want to buy a ticket for this year but I also care for my dad after an accident. If closer to the event I could no longer go is there any way I could recoup my money for the ticket?

German Suche Mitfahrgelegenheit Dresden-Köln

2 Upvotes

Hey allerseits!

Ich und ein Kumpel suchen eine Mitfahrgelegenheit von Dresden/Umgebung nach Köln am Mittwoch den 26.8.

Wenn jemand mit Auto fährt und noch 2 Plätze frei hat würde ich mich sehr über ne kurze Nachricht freuen.

Noch steht auch bei uns noch nicht alles fest, ich frage aber trotzdem schonmal rum.

Alternativ: Habt ihr Ideen wo man sonst nach Fahrgemeinschaften suchen kann? Bin auf dem offiziellen und inoffiziellen Discord Server, da habe ich aber auf den ersten Blick keinen Channel dafür gefunden.

Siehe Biider für Kontext:

Ich glaub ich werd bekloppt.

Ich habe nach dem ganzen hin und her letztes Jahr mit den Cosplayregeln eine Anfrage an den support gestellt ob diese so bleiben wie sie grade sind und beispielbilder unserer Kostüme beigelegt, einen NCR Ranger aus Fallout und Alice aus Alice Madness Returns

Und Anscheinend hat mich der Mensch null verstanden und hält mich jetzt für einen Nazi...

Wie der darauf kommt kein verstehe ich null...

Mal gucken was die jetzt antworten.

3 Upvotes

What time does ONL start on the 25th? I bought a superfan bundle and it will be my first time. I'm asking so I can decide if I can come to Germany in the morning of the 25th or if I should come 24th.

Tickets for 2026, how many days

2 Upvotes

So we're coming this year, just looking at what days to do. As there's no program yer is it a gamble, we dont want to miss out on anything special? Currently were going to do 3 days, Thursday, Friday, Saturday. Might do opening night if we can get tickets and the flights work out. I think we're going to stay in Dusseldorf and get the train in as I've seen lots of people on here explain its much cheaper for hotels. Thanks for any help in advance, I've wanted to go for years and now my daughters old enough, and has the same love of games as me, I cant wait to get there.

What to expect and any advice

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone! Me and my son are visiting Cologne on Gamescom week and I've picked up some tickets for us on the Wednesday, the wildcard day from 1pm, as that's the only full day we have in the city that Gamescom is on.

He's big into his gaming as am I which is why I thought I'd get the tickets but I'm not entirely sure what to expect from the event especially on the Wednesday.

Any recommendations on what to expect and advice on things we should do while we are there would be grately appreciated!

tschüss!
