I was really excited to go check out the tour and had taken the time to navigate the website and book a tour in English. When I arrived I was told it would only be in German. They have refunded the t…Full review by Jet364566

They have tours, some of them in English, for which you have to buy a ticket in advance. The one we went on lasted about an hour and was excellent. This is the only way to get inside the concert hall unless, of course, you buy a ticket for a performance.
According to the official website, for sold out performance, "Remaining tickets occasionally available at box office 90 minutes before start of event." I'm curious if anyone has had success in obtaining tickets this way, and if there's any tip you can share to increase the chance of getting tickets. Thanks!!

Trip update: I was able to get tickets to the sold out Kammermusikfest concert by showing up at the ticket office 90 minutes before the concert. All I had to do was to wait in line for less than 20 minutes. And it was well worth the extra effort as the beauty and acoustic of the Grosser Saal was simply stunning. I also attended a different concert at the Kleiner Saal on the same day and it was equally fantastic too. The shoebox style hall, while not as grand as the Grand Hall, was more intimate and the acoustic was very responsive. I had a very engaging experience at the well named Recital Hall.
Is there a dress code for evening symphony concert at Elbphilharmonie?

There isn't a dress code per se, but I think you would be most comfortable in at least smart casual or business clothes. In other words, you might feel out of place if you wore shorts or athletic wear. Many men wear coat-and-tie and women dinner or cocktail dress or office-style pants suits dressed up with jewelry or a scarf.

Are there any ways to get some last minute (maybe cheaper as well??) tickets other than the official website? I found the performances on my available dates are full .......

Maybe you can try your hotel. Sometimes the hotels are buying tickets for performances and then sell them to their guests. Or try the reselling websites. A number of people are "friends of the Elbphilarmonie" and get tickets and then sell them or give them away if they cannot attend themselves.
