Travelling to Wacken-Open-Air

361 days a year Wacken is a small town with 2000 souls in the middle of Schleswig Holstein, Germany.
But for three days in August the population increases to 75000. Wacken is located 10 km north of Itzehoe and 50 km north/west of HAMBURG. Directions can be found at: http://www.uk.map24.com.

It´s important that all festival visitors obey the instructions of the stewards and security. We encourage you to carpool in order to cut down on the traffic and resulting waiting times. Save time and money!!!

Advice to all users of navigation systems: Only use navigation systems untill you achieve the signposted travel route. From then on you can trust our guidance-system. Much more important is this fact for your departure! Because then we are depend on the fact that not all of you hit the same freeway. So please follow our departure-advices, even if they look like a detour. Please use your navigation system not before you are on the freeway. At least this helps to prevent the traffic-jam in Northern Germany. ATTENTION: For the departure we use both freeway A 23 and freeway A 7as the rout toward south-direction.
