Get a parking discount on theatre nights

As a guest at The Royal Danish Theatre you receive a 25 % discount when parking in Q-Park’s car park in Magasin.

If you have a subscription to The Royal Danish Theatre or own a theatre card you obtain a 50 % discount. The discount is valid all days and nights.

How to get the 25 % discount as a theatre guest:

1. Draw a parking ticket at the entrance to the car park.

2. The ticket is scanned in the ticket machine at The Play House or at the Old Stage. The ticket gets a bar code which later on releases the discount.

3. When you leave the car park you scan the ticket. The bar code now releases the discount and payment is then possible either in cash or with a credit card.

How to get the 50 % discount as a subscriber or theatre card holder:

1. Draw a parking ticket at the entrance to the car park.

2. When you leave the car park you first scan the ticket and next the subscription card or theatre card. The combination of ticket and card releases the discount and payment is then possible either in cash or with a credit card.

NB! If you use your credit card directly at the drive no parking ticket is released and therefore no discount. Thus, it is important to take out the parking ticket!
