Is it possible to get to the festival if I am staying in Hamburg? Hoping to get a hotel there and be able to get back and forth to Wacken, does anybody know?
Camp!!! You're gonna be missing all the fun and spirit traveling back and forth...Is it possible to get to the festival if I am staying in Hamburg? Hoping to get a hotel there and be able to get back and forth to Wacken, does anybody know?
Hello all,
I'm planning on staying at a friend's house at Hohenwestedt, nearby Wacken, and go to the festival area everyday after lunch, by car. Would it be too much hassle or is it doable?
It'll be doable, but, it's 30 minutes a day without traffic. That would be a real hassle. I don't even think there is a parking area for people just spending time during the day. Plus, you'd be missing a lot of bands by going after lunch.
I would highly recommend just camping.
I really don't mind driving 1h per day or eating earlier to avoid missing some shows. To be honest, I'm more concerned with the parking situation and traffic. Is there heavy traffic throughout the whole festival period?
I'm trying to avoid camping because I'll travel through Greece after the festival and don't want to carry all the equipment for 20 days, since it will be useless when I leave Wacken.
Thank you all for the responses.

Not doable.
€13 for a one way (by train)
There are 4 days.
makes €104, and I forgot the bus here (and the HVV if you need that in Hamburg)
Add the time it takes to travel.. welcome to hell. I'd say: just camp!
