True, but 370$ is to much!
you can buy all this stuff by yourself and it will maybe be around 200€ in Hamburg or Wacken.

Yeah I tend to think so too. I bought an emergency tent at Bloodstock Open Air last year after my tent broke for 60 pounds (so maybe €70?). This year I couldn't find a chair that fit in my suitcase so I bought one in Wacken village for €9.99. I don't think it's entirely necessary to sleep on an inflatable bed at Wacken considering how amazingly soft the ground is, and I can't actually remember how much my sleeping bag and insulation mat came to, but not heaps. I was more than happy to carry all of my camping gear around with me through Europe, but obviously not everyone is.

Just remember $370 includes a security deposit, I'm guessing the security deposit was was around $120. So it's about $250. Still expensive, but for someone us, I rather be comfortable and not deal more equipment than needed especially for me I'm going to other cities in Europe after the festival. And maybe I'm just a wimp.

we couldn't get the tickets in time before the sell out
Maybe throught the ticket exchange. But who knows.

Each to their own. My luggage still didn't go over 20kg with all the camping gear in it, but I don't really buy very much stuff while I'm away; a few shirts and other such small things mostly.

We did the ready to rock and it was absolutely the best decision ever. Nothing better than arriving after a very long all night train ride and finding that you already had a tent,bed, furniture etc all set up and ready for you to just crash in. No bullshit set up, no tear down, no having to worry about someone stealing your stuff because there are people around all the time and they are very good about keeping their eyes open. It's quieter than the 'normal' sites (comparatively speaking because it is still fucking loud!) It is SUPER close to the stage so you can even listen to the shows without even going anywhere in case the weather is bad or you just want to hang out and party at your tent. Its close to the main entry so you have less of a chance to get lost trying to find your spot. Totally worth every $$ imho.

Thanks so much for all the advice regarding your previous ready to rock rental tent experiences. Has anyone tried the other rental company?

They seem to be far more reasonable in price and have packages including tents, chairs, tarps, etc. That and there deposit prices are lower too.

Totally agreed, they are definitely cheaper. I hadn't even consider another tent rental company. Not sure what to tell you. The only pro I can think of for Ready to Rock is their tent location at the Wacken campgrounds, the village and to the bus. Not sure where mein-zelt-ist-bestellt have their tent setup at Wacken. For a first timer this past summer I really like the Ready to Rock tent location. Hope this helps.

According to www.mein-zelt-steht-schon.de you'd be in the no parking camping area. (A?)

I was looking a the map from last year and they appear to be pretty close to the Ready to Rock rental campling.
Hi,
so, I realised a few days ago that this year I'd actually have the funds to go to Germany, and attend Wacken. Little did I know though, that the tickets had sold out in a mere 48 hours (*insert jaw drop here*). The tickets' page (http://www.wacken.com/en/woa2014/main-tickets-shop/tickets/) mentioned possible options, but none of them were very well defined as to 'when'. Are we, who had no idea Wacken is THIS sought after, supposed to keep checking daily until we get lucky, or something?

It seems the forum ate my previous reply here..no matter..I wanted to ask, about the possibility to get tickets to wacken. Are we simply supposed to get lucky with the options presented at http://www.wacken.com/en/woa2014/main-tickets-shop/tickets/ and visit the site at a time when there are available tickets?
Thank you!
Thank you!
