House rules and prohibitions

These house rules and prohibitions apply to anyone entering our venue in any capacity.

  • All visitors are requested to arrive on time and to respond appropriately to any instructions from security staff. For safety reasons, it is not permitted to bring luggage, backpacks or handbags larger than A4 size (max. 21 cm x 30 cm x 10 cm) into the venue. This rule is strictly enforced. We therefore kindly ask that you bring only essential personal items and leave all other belongings at home.

  • Children under 12 who are not accompanied by an adult will not be admitted to the venue. Accompaniment by an adult is also strongly recommended for young people aged between 12 and 16.

  • It is forbidden to enter the venue with bottles, cans, drinks or food, alcohol, cutlery, glass (perfume) bottles, aerosol sprays (such as deodorants), flagpoles, (extendable) selfie sticks, fireworks, sharp objects, audio recording equipment, film or photo cameras. Smartphones with camera functions are tolerated, unless otherwise specified by the organiser.
    This list is not exhaustive. A stricter access policy may apply at the request of the artist or organiser. Entry to the venue implies agreement to a possible search. In the event of a violation, entry may be denied and the police may be contacted if necessary.

  • Be•at cannot be held liable in any way for theft or loss of objects brought along, not even if they have been placed in a locker.

  • The be•at venues have a zero-tolerance policy on drug use and excessive and/or bothersome alcohol consumption. Violation of this may result in denial of access to the venue, without any right to compensation for the offender. Be•at is free to request the assistance of the police. In no way can be•at be held liable for damage to persons or property resulting from drug or alcohol consumption.

  • Sexual or other transgressive behaviour will in no way be tolerated and may lead to denial of access to the venue, without any right to compensation for the perpetrator. Be•at is free to request the assistance of the police.

Be•at points out that in case of violation, the authorised services may draw up an official report or issue a fine (with or without immediate collection). Smokers can, however, leave the building on presentation of their ticket to light a cigarette outside. The ticket barcode is also scanned on re-entry.
