How and when can I acquire a ticket for access to gnration?

Tickets for this room always sell out very quickly. However, Semibreve and gnration might make available a reduced and extra number of daily tickets for gnration. In the case that this does occur, tickets for access to gnration may be acquired on show days, 15 minutes before their beginning, at the gnration ticket counter. We do not guarantee that tickets will still be available at performance times.

Should I wear auditory protection at the performances?

The use of auditory protection is advisable for people with auditory sensitivity. The Semibreve festival is a sound experience, where volume for the performances is an integral part of the experience, with the possibility of concerts with considerable volume. At the shows where there is a considerable sound volume, the festival will inform you through its communication channels. The festival also has at the audience’s disposal auditory protectors, at an affordable price.

Can I photograph or film the performances?

No. With the exception of persons duly accredited for this effect, such as is the case with media and the festival’s communication team, it is not permitted to photograph or film the performances. When in a context of a dim lighting of the room, screen luminosity on mobile phones reduces the visual experience of the audience around you. We also ask that you turn off the sound on your mobile phones during the performances. Besides a visual experience, Semibreve is also a sound experience.
