No, unfortunately this is not possible. The ticket will be exchanged for a festival wristband at the entrance, which allows access to the festival for the whole weekend.
The fastener of the wristband will be firmly sealed. The wristband cannot and must not be passed on – cut wristbands lose their validity and will not be replaced.
Generally speaking, we have a no-refund/ticket change policy. However, in certain cases (e.g. cancellation due to a Force Majeure event or if you do not meet some entry criteria prescribed by the local authorities after you purchased) a full refund (excl. 3% processing fee) applies.

The deposit coin has no monetary value, i.e. you can neither return the coin you got for free at the entrance nor exchange it for 2€.
