Collette claims ‘premiere access’ for 2020 Oberammergau Passion Play

Collette is claiming “premiere access” to tickets for the once-in-a-decade Oberammergau Passion Play in 2020.

The Bavarian hamlet will play host to thousands of visitors for the event with 102 performances of the play depicting the life and death of Jesus Christ performed all by local residents.

Collette handled more than 10,000 travellers to the Passion Play in 2010, the most of any tour operator.

But competition for tickets as the play is high as it only runs five days a week from May 16 to October 4, 2020.

“Collette travellers will have at least seven programmes to choose from nine to 13 days in length,” said Jaclyn Leibl-Cote, Executive vice president of product and tour management.

“Each programme includes a one or two-night Passion Play premium category package with reserved accommodations as well as seating.”
