Concert Summer 2019: Location & FAQ’s.

The admission ticket grants the holder an outbound trip to the event site starting 3 hours before the event opening and a return trip up to end of operating hours using all VVS transit (2nd class).

We recommend using public transit. U 11 light rail runs every 15 minutes (1.5 hours before the start of the event to about 60 min after the event ends).

As an alternative, you can use the designated parking options in Neckar Park. Please follow the applicable signs.

There will be a shuttle to the concert in a historic Mercedes-Benz O 3500 bus, built in 1950, from the Schlossplatz square. The bus runs (exclusively) on 7 July between 11:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. Please note that the bus has limited capacity and there is no guarantee for transportation.

The festival site is largely barrier-free and easily reachable for people with restricted mobility. Near the main stage there is a separate wheelchair platform as well as sufficient accessible toilets.

The entry checks may take longer due to people and bag screening. Please bear with us. We kindly ask you to be patient and to refrain from pushing. The checks are necessary in order to ensure a safe time at the Concert Summer.
