This should prove interesting - and perhaps an indicator of the future? Expect problems with the online ticketing service when it goes live online on the 13 Oct 2013 at 18:00. From the Bayreuth Website:
BAYREUTH FESTIVAL 2014
Here you have the opportunity to directly purchase tickets for eleven performances of the Bayreuth Festival 2014 from 13 October 2013, 18:00 onwards. You can receive these tickets without any waiting times as they will be sent to you in a PDF file via email immediately upon payment.
You will not have to pay any additional fees. You will pay the regular ticket price plus the fee of 2.00 Euro for each seat. The processing fee of 6.00 Euro per invoice will be waived.
Successful ticket purchase does not have any effects on your personal ordering statistics. This means, for example, that your existing waiting times will not be affected.
