Arrive early, plan a locker

Plan on a locker for coats and bags. Arrive 30 to 45 minutes before doors for the busy club shows, and never refresh the online ticket queue, since that sends you to the back.

Buy the membership first

Buy your Paradiso membership online with your ticket: €4.50 for a month or €9.50 for a year. Most nights need one on top of the ticket, and buying ahead skips the door queue.

Book a locker early

Reserve a locker through the link in your service mail, open from 48 hours before main hall evening shows. Otherwise scan the QR code in the queue.

Sold out means waiting list

For a sold out show, join the waiting list or buy on TicketSwap. Those are the only resale routes Paradiso guarantees, and there are no door tickets.
