Sunday questions

[Sutasu]

Tried to ask at an official question form, to no avail yet.

1) Would the shuttle run on normal schedule on Sunday?
2) Would the post booth that allowed to mail your stuff back home available on Sunday?

Thanks!

The shuttle bus back to Itzehoe runs very regularly on Sunday until everyone is gone. On my first trip my friends and I took our sweet time leaving and decided to wait for a taxi, but the shuttle bus staff yelled at everyone to get on the bus instead. Like they didn't even make us pay for a ticket; they just wanted us to f off so they could go home.

As a general rule, don't expect anything to be open on Sundays in Germany apart from essential services like food, transport (the drivers, not the station staff in regional areas), select pharmacies, etc. If you need to send anything home and it can't wait until Monday, do it on Saturday.

Yeah...that's what I was afraid of. Mailing tent and stuff home was super helpful, but that probably means I can't stay for Sunday...(

And how is pool organized? You just hop on the bus in your swimwear and go - or are there spaces for changing and lockers for valuable things? Thanks!

No lockers. There are spaces to change however. But it's basic.
And you could hop on the bus in your swimming gear, but also change there.

If I recall correctly, it was quite expensive to mail stuff back from the festival compared to the post office, but I know there are circumstances where it can't wait until Monday (been there myself). Perhaps you could mail your tent back on Saturday and share someone else's tent on Saturday night or if the weather is good, you could sleep outside. It's up to you.
