Oh, so cyber was wrong. Sorry, I didn´t proof his statement i.e. "sold out for metal shuttle from Lübeck"...

So you have a shuttle directly from Lübeck airport to Wacken? Cool

Just wondering people if you could help me out.
I'm arriving to Berlin from Mexico. Then i thought I could take a train, but I if you could help me out a little; the page which its supposed to be in Spanish and/or in English its half in German D:!I cant understand at all, so anyone knows which train(s) I could take and what to do when I get to Wacken? I mean, is the train station inside Wacken, or in the outside of the town, and when I arrive am I supposed to get into a bus or something? or just I get of the train and ta-dda! I'm in wacken =)
Thanks for your help!

From Berlin you go to Hamburg (either Hbf which is main station or Altona)
From Hamburg, you go to Itzehoe. This is the station nearest to Wacken.

It could be that you have to change in Elmshorn from the Hbf but that shouldn't be a problem.

Since I don't know when you'll be arriving....

From Berlin you can´t go directly to Hamburg-Altona, you will arrive at Hamburg Hauptbahnhof (central station). There you have to switch into the S-Bahn, go to Altona. Wait, just send me you arrival dates and I can give you the schedules how to go.

ok, i think i got this right:

so, first thing to do is to go the s bahn station (hamburg aiport (flughafen) to ohlsdorf. than to get another train to altona or hamburg bhf S1 direction wedel, than a regional train to itzehoe (r60), than the shuttle bus to wacken

is this right?

danke schon

2.) Regional Train to Itzehoe (about 46 to 56 minutes)

just 37 minutes from airport to altona? really?

and another question, i saw shuttle buses from itzehoe and the page is all in german so i cant understand it very well

from what i've understood there are buses on wednesday each 30 minutes up to 20.00

then there is just one at 22 and the last at 24

so, people like me, arriving at 21, will have to wait one hour hoping to be able to get in that shuttle bus?

Yes, really Our Airport is not that far away from the city.

Is someone's going to arrive on Monday- join our "pre-Wacken garden party" from Saturday evening to Monday morning. It's about a quarter an hour away from the campgrounds. The more people, the more epic.

Fuck yes, John. Say goodbye to your garden.
