Frequently asked questions
I was a subscriber in the 25/26 Season. Will I have the right to renew all subscriptions for the 26/27 Season?
If you do not wish to make any seat changes, you may automatically renew the subscription(s) you held during the 25/26 Season. Any request for changes (seat or zone) will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis. Please ensure that you log in to your MyGulbenkian account using the same email address used during the previous season.
Please note that the Sunday Concerts subscription is no longer available for the 26/27 Season, and only individual tickets may now be purchased.
Are there subscriptions available for the Sunday Concerts cycle?
No. Sunday Concerts were conceived as a relaxed and accessible introduction to classical music for a broad audience. In order to allow a greater number of people to attend the concerts throughout the season, only single tickets will be available for this cycle. A new ticket with a 50% discount for young people aged between 6 and 17 will also be available.
Are there any age-related discounts when purchasing a subscription?
No. However, the price of subscriptions already includes a discount on the total ticket price, with the percentage varying according to the cycle and seating area.
If one or more concerts in my subscription are canceled or postponed, will I be refunded?
The Gulbenkian Foundation will ensure a full refund for tickets to canceled or postponed concerts.
Do I just need a MyGulbenkian account to submit my subscription request?
No. You also need to join the Cartão Gulbenkian (free) in order to access the form.
Does Cartão Gulbenkian Mais membership offer any advantages when purchasing subscriptions?
No. The Cartão Gulbenkian Mais membership only provides access to the pre-booking of single tickets (one day in advance). Similarly to its free version, Cartão Gulbenkian Mais also offers increased age-related discounts for single ticket purchases.
If I buy more than one subscriptions, do all subscribers need to join the Cartão Gulbenkian?
No. Only the person submitting the subscription purchase request is required to join the Cartão Gulbenkian (free).
