The Identification Wristband is assigned to one person and may not be removed, transferred or shared with third parties. Damage, removal or lack of the wristband may result in refusal of re-entry to the Performance.
Time Slot – the time interval during which the Spectator is entitled to the first entry to the Hall under a Time Slot Ticket.

3. Tickets and Time Slot System

Two types of tickets apply for the Performance: the 24-hour Ticket and the Time Slot Ticket.
After entering the auditorium, the Spectator has the right to remain for any duration, until the official end of the Performance, regardless of the validity period of their Time Slot.
In the case of Time Slot Tickets, after the expiry of the Time Slot, it is possible to leave the Hall for a period not exceeding 30 minutes, exclusively upon obtaining a Control Coupon.
The right to remain in the Hall after the expiry of the Time Slot is irrevocably lost in the event of leaving the auditorium without obtaining a Control Coupon or for a period exceeding 30 minutes. In such cases, re-entry to the Hall based on the same Time Slot Ticket and/or Identification Wristband is not permitted.
Subject to availability, tickets may also be purchased on site at the Earth Hall during the Performance.
On-site ticket sales at the Earth Hall take place from 18:00 on 26 June 2026 until 15:00 on 27 June 2026.
The purchase of such a ticket does not guarantee immediate entry to the auditorium. Entry will be possible once seats become available, during breaks between scenes. Waiting time depends on current occupancy.
In accordance with § 6 of the Terms and Conditions for the sale of tickets for ticketed events organised as part of the 36^th edition of Malta Festival in Poznań, held on 21–28 June 2026, and Article 38(1)(12) of the Act of 30 May 2014 on Consumer Rights (Journal of Laws 2024.1796, as amended), purchased tickets are non-refundable and cannot be exchanged for another date/Time Slot.

4. Queue Organisation and Re-entry System

In order to ensure smooth audience rotation, two separate access queues to the Hall are introduced:
- Priority Queue: Intended for holders of 24-hour Tickets, Attendees holding an Identification Wristband who are returning to the Event within their applicable Time Slot, Attendees holding a Control Coupon, and holders of tickets marked with the Accessibility (OzN) symbol (both 24-hour Tickets and Slot Tickets).
- General Queue: designated for holders of Time Slot Tickets for the current Time Slot (first entry) and for persons purchasing tickets at the box office and Spectators returning without a valid Control Coupon within their Time Slot.
Due to the nature of the performance, entry and exit of Spectators take place exclusively during short breaks between consecutive scenes of approximately 10 minutes. The audience staff determines the number of persons admitted during each interval based on current occupancy. Additionally, a 15-minute technical break is scheduled every 2 hours.
A Spectator intending to leave the Hall for a period not exceeding 30 minutes is required to obtain a Control Coupon from the staff, indicating the time of exit. Returning with a valid Control Coupon within the designated time entitles the holder to enter the Hall via the Priority Queue
A Spectator who exceeds the 30-minute absence limit, while their Time Slot remains valid, retains the right to enter the auditorium via the Priority Queue (upon presentation of an Identification Wristband), however, they must take into account the possibility of having to wait for available seats. Exceeding the 30-minute absence limit while the Time Slot indicated on the Slot Ticket has also expired results in the loss of the right to return to the auditorium.

5. Rules of Conduct in the Auditorium
