Q & A about Wacken Open Air

[Quark]

Will they help me in the ticket office to wear wristbands from previous festivals, or shall I do it in advance?

Better do it yourself. They'll only help you with the wristband of 2017.

 

[Andrei]

Curses.
Any advises how to best fix them?

 

[Quark]

You didn't cut them off, did you???
That's not needed! You can continue carrying them! It's just, they won't HELP you putting them on! It's just the 2017 band they'll put on!

 

[Andrei]

Now, I did not cut them, so they are intact
But I was curious how do you put them back- do you sew, glue or use some pins to fix them?

 

[Quark]

Velcro or whatever they're called. There's a tun of possibilities.

 

[Milkie]

You can get them off slowly without removing the metal thingy. It's annoying but worth it.

People who are crew or who play in a band, or work in some way for wacken get those. Do I really have to explain this?

 

[Milkie]

VIP wristbands are given to certain people by organizers. You can't buy them for higher price like at some festivals you can.

 

[Trubozhop]

Okay, got it. Thanks.

And before you get too excited, it's not that exiting as a seems. You get access to the press tent and that's about it. No free booze, no meetings with your favourite artists etc. Nothing of that kind.
Had them from 2005 to 09.


O ja , they are personalised. Don't bother asking if you could get one from me or someone else! ID needed!

Well I'm sure there are multiple kinds of vip wristbands for differend areas. Like, if you participate in the metalbattle you'll get a vip wristband, which allowes you into that area, but not into the mainstage vip area.

A group of friends are traveling in just for Wacken and are planning to stay in Hamburg.
