IMPORTANT ACTUAL ARRIVAL INFORMATION!!! Early Arrivals on MONDAY are definately NOT POSSIBLE. There are no surrogate campgrounds available!
Dear Metalheads,
due to the actual weather situation (partial more than 50 liter/m² rain in one hour) we have a special request to you:
DUE TO THE HEAVY RAIN AN EARLY ARRIVAL IS NOT POSSIBLE BEFORE TUESDAY, 31ST OF JULY - THE SAME GOES FOR PEOPLE TRAVELLING WITHOUT OWN VEHICLE. IF POSSIBLE PLEASE TRAVEL BY BUS AND TRAIN WICH ENSURE A COMFORTABLE AND SAFE ARRIVAL.
To guarantee us, but ESPECIALLY YOU a smooth festival we are depending on your cooperation.
The grounds are completely soaked at the moment and CAN’T be frequented by automobiles. Unfortunately, more rain is announced for this weekend.
The whole team is working at full speed at the dewatering and preparation of the grounds, to enable the camping at the automobiles and to afford you the best possible camping grounds. The weather outlook for the festival time is better, but every day counts to get the grounds dry, so that they will sustain the festival time, which is of-course in everyone's interest. But this contains, that the campgrounds have to be blank as long as possible and that they can’t be frequented by car or foot.
Please use the attractive travel offers with bus and train , more info in our travel portal
We hope and request your cooperation and we are sure that you will understand and support us, to make the W:O:A the most awesome metal party of the year again.
Otherwise we would probably unfortunately be forced to separate camping and parking!
All workers which are setting up the W:O:A are anyhow in cheerful spirits and we are looking forward to welcome you as of Wednesday, when we will say again:
Faster:Harder:Louder – See you in Wacken Metalheads – Rain or Shine!!!
