Ticket Info

The COVID-19 virus has completely overturned all of our summer plans. As we know, this cowardly bastard also ruined the FM4 Frequency Festival 2020. But we will not let it get us down and are already planning for FQ21 (August 19-21, 2021), so that it will be the most beautiful, colorful and loudest reunion.

YOU CAN’T KEEP US FROM disDANCING

Ready to dance and celebrate life together again in St. Pölten next year? After 3 years of being sold out, the tickets for next year are of course very popular. So exchange (=swap) your FQ20 tickets (regardless of the category) now for FQ21 tickets of the same category. Everyone who unfortunately cannot be there next year can have a voucher issued.

A short overview about all your options can be found HERE.

 

For all further info please have a look paragraphs and FAQs below:

Ticket exchange / ticket swap *

You can swap all your FQ20 tickets (festival passes, glamping, comfort, caravan tickets, day tickets etc.) for next year on our specially set up online platform. All tickets purchased through the official ticket providers (oeticket, eventim, musicticket, Raiffeisen & Hofer) can be swapped until July 31st, 2020. After your swap you will receive a confirmation email which together with your FQ20 ticket is your confirmation of admission for next year.

The pre-sale for the FM4 Frequency 2021 starts with the final prices of 2020. So, since there will be no Golden Egg, Earl E. Bird, Justin Taim or Lay-Z phases, the swap for next year is definitely the cheapest and easiest solution. If you e.g. bought a FQ20 Golden Egg Pass for EUR 149.99, you now get a FQ21 festival pass worth EUR 189.99 and thus save EUR 40.

Ticket return / voucher system

If you cannot attend FM4 Frequency next year, you can also have the ticket price redeemed as a voucher. This voucher is valid until December 31st, 2022 and can be redeemed for future events organized by the musicnet entertainment GmbH (incl. FM4 Frequency Festivals), Nova Music Entertainment GmbH and Barracuda Music GmbH. For an overview of all future events please go to www.barracudamusic.at.

After this period has expired, you can have the voucher value refunded. This solution is based on an Austrian federal law that has been adopted in order to keep the culture and events industry alive for the next few years. However, since all framework conditions and the technical implementation have to be worked out here first, we ask for your understanding that no binding start date can be given yet. The ticketing companies have set the goal for the second half of June 2020. Thank you for your patience. All further info about the vouchers can be found in our FAQ-section below.

Refund – Exceptional case

We are aware that this crisis situation is also a financial burden for many of us. Therefore, we decided to refund the face value of your FQ20 ticket (= the value printed on the ticket or voucher) to all of you who have lost their jobs due to the COVID-19 crisis. Thereby we want to make a small contribution. If this applies to you, please send us an email with your official confirmation from the unemployment service and your ticket barcode to covid19hilfe@frequency.at.

Only the official confirmation of the unemployment service is valid as proof. March 15th, 2020 is the key date for unemployment. Short-time work is not considered as a loss of job here.

* Upon confirmation you agree to set off your claim for refund of the Frequency 2020 ticket price against your obligation for payment of the Frequency 2021 ticket price.

  • I want to return my FQ20 ticket. What should I do? Info about vouchers!

    If you cannot attend FM4 Frequency next year, you can have the ticket price redeemed as a voucher. This voucher is valid until December 31st, 2022 and can be redeemed for future events organized by the musicnet entertainment GmbH (incl. FM4 Frequency Festivals), Nova Music Entertainment GmbH and Barracuda Music GmbH. For an overview of all future events please go to www.barracudamusic.at. After this period has expired, you can have the voucher value refunded.

    This solution is based on an Austrian federal that has been adopted in order to keep the culture and events industry alive for the next few years. The system is intended to help ensure that the culture and events industry continues to survive. However, since all framework conditions and the technical implementation have to be worked out here first, we ask for your understanding that no binding start date can be given yet. The ticketing companies have set the goal for the second half of June 2020. Thank you for your understanding and patience. All further info about the vouchers can be found in the following questions and answers below.

    There is currently an exception for anyone who has lost their job due to the COVID-19 crisis. You will find all further info at the question "I lost my job because of the COVID-19 crisis. Is there an exception for my refund?"

  • For which future events can the voucher be redeemed?

    This voucher is valid until December 31st, 2022 and can be redeemed for future events organized by the musicnet entertainment GmbH (incl. FM4 Frequency Festivals), Nova Music Entertainment GmbH and Barracuda Music GmbH. For an overview of all future events please go to www.barracudamusic.at.

    After this period has expired, you can have the voucher value refunded.

  • How much is the voucher issued for?

    About the price printed on the ticket. Only one ticket can be processed at a time. It is unfortunately not possible to combine several tickets into a total.

  • I bought a FQ20 ticket with a value of less than 70 euros, and I would like to return it. What options do I have?

    For all tickets with a value of up to 70 euros you can (as soon as the system is available) get a voucher. This voucher is valid until December 31st, 2022 and can be redeemed for future events organized by the musicnet entertainment GmbH (incl. FM4 Frequency Festivals), Nova Music Entertainment GmbH and Barracuda Music GmbH. For an overview of all future events please go to www.barracudamusic.at.

  • I bought a FQ20 ticket with a value of more than 70 euros and would like to return it. What options do I have?

    If the ticket value exceeds 70 euros, you will receive a voucher for 70 euros and the remaining amount (above 70 euros) will be paid to you.

    At festivals, however, the value of the ticket is calculated per event day. Say a 3-day festival pass for 180 euros corresponds to a value of 60 euros per day. Since the value per day does not exceed 70 euros, only the voucher solution is possible here. You will receive a voucher worth 180 euros.

    This day regulation is established by a federal law. The german version of this law can be found HERE.

    Further calculation examples:

    VIP Festival Pass: If you have a VIP Festival Pass for 349.99 euros, the daily value is 349.99 euros / 3 = 116.66 euros. You can have 210 euros (3 x 70 euros) issued as a voucher and the remaining amount of 139.98 (3 x 46.66 euros) will be refunded.

    Day tickets: If you have a day ticket for 99 euros, you can get 70 euros as a voucher and the remaining amount of 29 euros will be paid out to you.

  • I have a glamping ticket (Fiver, freQmansion, Bungalow) or a comfort ticket. Can these tickets be refunded?

    There is an exception for these "accommodation tickets". If you don't want to swap them for next year, they can be refunded. Please send us your refund request to glamping@frequency.at

  • I bought several tickets for the FQ20. Does the voucher model refer to the total amount or each individual ticket?

    Only one ticket can be processed at a time.

  • When can I get a voucher for my FQ20 tickets?

    More information will follow. Together with our ticketing partners, we have to set up the processing systems and that takes a lot of time. Please understand that for this reason we cannot give a binding start date. The goal is the second half of June 2020.

  • Where can I return my FQ20 tickets and thereby get a voucher for the musicnet entertainment GmbH?

    More information will follow. Together with our ticketing partners, we have to set up the processing systems and that takes a lot of time. Please understand that for this reason we cannot give a binding start date. The goal is the second half of June 2020.

  • Can I have a voucher issued where I bought my ticket (öticket ticket office, Hofer supermarket, Raiffeisen Bank etc.)?

    Together with our ticketing partners, we have to set up the processing systems and that takes a lot of time. Please understand that for this reason we cannot give a binding start date. The goal is the second half of June 2020. From today's perspective, it is not planned to issue vouchers at stationary ticket offices. The processing will take place via an online system.

  • I want my tickets paid out! What needs to be done?

    According to the law a refund is only possible after December 31, 2022. The legislature has stipulated that only the voucher system can be used for all canceled events. All vouchers that are not redeemed by 12/31/2022 can then be paid out. This system is intended to help ensure that the culture and event industry continues to survive.

  • How long does it take to process my request?

    We ask for your patience here, as the practical and technical implementation takes a lot of time.

  • I lost my job because of the COVID-19 crisis. Is there an exception for my refund?

    We have decided to help out all visitors that lost their jobs due to the COVID-19 crisis*, by refunding the face value of their ticket (value printed on the ticket or voucher). Since every euro is important here, we want to make a small contribution with this immediate refund. After all, this is about threatened livelihoods.

    If this applies to you, please send us an email with your official confirmation from the employment service and your ticket barcode to covid19hilfe@frequency.at

    Only the official confirmation of the employment service is valid as proof. March 15th, 2020 is the key date for unemployment. Short-time work is not considered a loss of job here.
