I've been to Rock Am Ring twice so far, once we got a coach to Cologne from London, took fucking ages! Like 15 hours each way, and the other time we flew to Cologne/Bonn, it's quite convienent to fly as it's only like an hour on the plane.

How we are doing it this year, is flying out from London on the Tuesday, spend a night in Cologne drinking in their amazing pubs, then head to Koblenz on the Weds morning to get the coach to the festival, pretty much the reverse on the way back!

They are opening the camping on tuesday already :) Me and my friends are flying from Sweden to Frankfurt on tuesday :D cant wait!

To anyone that has already been to Rock Am Ring... are there any after hours parties after the main acts close?

Went a couple years ago, as far as I remember bands keep playing till around 3am. And there is some stuff going on after, not huge amounts but something.

Got my tickets today, me, my brother and my friend are going.

Anyone using Argon Events coach package? I used them last time and I am using them again.

Gonna be amazing again :-)

There's a tent near the arena where they play rock music and I think there's a bar in there too... I've never been in there because it's always been packed when I've been walking past, it looks good though! Also, last year we went to this place across from the pubs near the arena entrance, I guess it was a club. It was on the Thursday evening and a Rage Against the Machine cover band was playing in there until quite late, was awesome!

There is a party tent of sorts, on Friday and Sat the music don't stop till 3am! Proper insanity!

I'm getting the eurostar out on the Tuesday, flying back the following Tuesday. Any questions? Feel free to hit me up, this is my third Rock AM Ring.

This is my third one too, I'm driving over on Wednesday, getting a ferry at about mid day so I'm hoping to be there in the late afternoon! Can't wait now, it's so close! Debating whether or not to do the bungee. We did it last year and it was awesome, the view of the mountains from the top of that crane is incredible.

I think it's a 60 foot bungee, think it cost about 60€ but don't hold me to that... I'm not sure if there's a weight restriction but one of the lads with us last year is a bit on the heavy side and he was able to do it, they made him a custom harness out of two smaller harnesses. It's well worth looking in to, it's an amazing experience!
