Wacken Open Air 2025 - All Info regarding the pre-sale
The W:O:A 2024 is history, the first 34 bands for 2025 are confirmed - what's still missing? Of course, the information about the tickets and the presale!
The regular ticket presale starts today at 20:00 on metaltix.com!
As usual we distinguish in Faster-Tickets and Harder-Tickets. All tickets are purely digital and personalized.
The categories at a glance:
The Faster Tickets, limited to 10,000 pieces, will be the first to go on sale. They cost 333€ (incl. fees) and come with a free and exclusive special T-shirt.
As soon as these tickets are gone, the sale of the Harder Tickets will start. They also cost 333€ (incl. fees).
That means: All tickets allow the visit of the complete festival on all days and the access to all stages. The main program will take place from July 31st, 2025 to August 02nd 2025. Camping is included in the ticket price and possible from July 31st until noon on August 3rd, 2025.
Shuttle buses from Itzehoe station to the festival and back will also be included for ticket holders and will thus be free of charge.
The first W:O:A 2025 merchandising:
Whether you snagged one of the 10,000 free shirts or not, two more exclusive W:O:A 2025 shirt designs will be available exclusively to fans who purchased a ticket!
Additionally, there are other exclusive bundle items like a button set, a sticker set, postcards, a lanyard and of course a souvenir ticket.
Important:
- After your ticket order has been processed at Metaltix, the tickets will automatically be transferred to the Wacken Ticketcenter. Tickets that have been ordered via pre payment will be transferred after the payment is fullfilled. There you can start the order for all physical items. The items will then be transferred to the shopping cart on Metalmerch. There you can also order regular W:O:A merchandise. The shipping of the items will start already on August 5th, and we expect that all orders will be shipped until mid of September.
- To prepare for the presale we recommend to log in to metaltix.com or create an account.
- If you have a Wacken.ID with this email address, just register with it. Otherwise register a Wacken.ID in advance via the Wacken Ticketcenter. You can use the Wacken.ID to log in to metalmerch.com. Then you can enter your current delivery addresses and decide which payment method you want to use.
- Available payment methods this year include PayPal with a registered PayPal account, credit card via PayPal without a PayPal account, and prepayment. PayPal also offers installment payments for registered PayPal customers.
- Since ticket returns are not allowed, we strongly recommend that all metalheads take advantage of the ticket insurance, which can refund your ticket price in case of an unforeseen cancellation on your part.
2025 Access Pass:
To ensure a smooth arrival by car and motorhome, we are optimizing the concept. Good news: Arrivals will start again on Sunday!
The Access Pass will still be valid per vehicle, not per ticket. Costs: €33 per car (up to 3.5 tons), €66 for larger vehicles/motorhomes (over 3.5 tons). Sales start: by spring 2025 at the latest.
