What to know before you go

Check the door time listed by the official ticket seller. Plan to arrive at least 30 minutes early to clear security and reach your section.
Security check: most venues prohibit professional cameras, large bags and outside food. Check the venue's official policy before traveling.
Bring the same payment card or QR code you used at checkout. Some venues no longer print physical tickets — phone screen is enough.
Dress for the genre and the weather — outdoor shows can get cold after sunset. Comfortable shoes for standing-only sections.

What to expect

This is date 24 of the 71 that Karat has scheduled in our catalog through December 2027. There are 71 dates in Germany. The previous stop is Hamburg (March 6) and the next one is Krefeld (March 11).

The GoAllConcerts take

Karat is worth seeing live this autumn. The band was founded in 1975 in East Berlin and now has 74 dates listed in Germany, running from October 2026 to December 2027. This is a tour of concert halls and congress centres, not stadiums: the Tonhalle in Düsseldorf, Die Glocke in Bremen, the Georg-Friedrich-Händel-Halle in Halle. That suits anyone who wants to hear a rock band with a long history in a comfortable room with good sound. It is a show for people who know the group's classic repertoire and for those who want to get close to a piece of German rock history. When buying, take your time choosing the city and the venue: the calendar covers twelve cities, and the opening shows, from 21 to 24 October 2026, come four nights in a row.
