  • International Lab organiser tickets for the global finale are in high demand every year, and we only have a very limited number of tickets available. This means that not every Lab organiser receives an organiser ticket and priority will be given to organisers who have not yet attended the finale in Berlin. If interested in a Lab organiser ticket, please contact the Falling Walls Lab team and they will get back to you as soon as possible. Tickets will also be available for purchase via our website.
