Nicklord Posted January 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 (edited) About 1/3 is left, next wave will probably look like the 2nd one but maybe there will be one more headliner for Volbeat day. I really want Wolfmother and Dropkick Murphys to be there from available bands Edited January 16, 2016 by Nicklord Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liliarocks Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 Hi everyone, Just booked myself tickets for Rock am ring! Would be great if anyone can give me some advice as it will be my first time here and i will be coming solo! None of my friends can make it and decided I'm going anyway the line up is too good to miss I have not booked my travel yet but I think i will be flying into Cologne and from there get the train. What day does the festival open so you can set up camp and can anyone advise a good day to arrive? Also as I was wondering if anyone knows if there are sometimes efestival camping groups or meetups? As I'm coming alone it would be good to find some people that I could pitch near or meet up with! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, I was last year and I think the perfect day to arrive is on Wednesday or even on Thursday but really soon because last year we arrived on Thursday evening and it was too late there was a problem with camping space, they had to improvise camping areas because there was no space left, so my suggestion is if you can arrive on Wednesday, do it. I do not know about any camping group but I'm going with a couple of friends we are staying at the rock an roll camping, you can gladly join.

Okay that's good to know I will arrange my travel so I can arrive on the Wednesday yeah that would be cool thanks! I have just booked general camping though i think, do you have to book the rock and roll camping in advance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArielBiMBa Posted March 18, 2016 Report Share Posted March 18, 2016 Hi There! I have a few questions for people who's already been to Rock Im Park, hope you can help: The best flight I can find ("best" means cheaper by almost 50% than others) arrives at Nuremberg on Thursday 01:15 AM. Is it reasonable to arrive at the camp around 02:30 and start looking for a place? is it well lit at night? Or is it preferable to find a hostel in Nuremberg for that night and start looking for camp first thing in the morning (lets say around ~9AM) Considering the first option, how much should a cab from the airport to the festival grounds cost? (I'm assuming there's no other public transport option that late) Is there a supermarket within the festival grounds, near the campsite? generally, how much was expenses for you in a festival day? (Yeah, I'm a bit tight on budget...broke student haha) Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArielBiMBa Posted March 18, 2016 Report Share Posted March 18, 2016 It seems that editing messages isn't possible so just a small correction - In addition to "Is it reasonable to arrive to 02:30 to the campgrounds", is it even possible? cause this made me recall my Download experience and that the campgrounds weren't accessible for everyone, only ticket holders, and I guess there'll be no one to check my ticket and allow entrance in RIP on such a late hour...

Probably around 30-40 euro 3. There is no supermarket on site. However there is a Lidl/Aldi close enough to the campsite. Its quite a walk though.

I honestly don't know for sure, BUT i imagine that it should be fine to arrive at that time. The only thing ill say is that it may be difficult to find a camp site at that time as it will be very full and will be pitch black around the campsite!

ultimateginge Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 My friend and I have just booked flights and we're not getting to Nuremberg until 4.50pm! In my experience of festivals this is pretty late so I think we might struggle for a space but can anyone recommend one of the less busy sites I could aim for? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ipayne Posted May 6, 2016 Report Share Posted May 6, 2016 Anyone know when they'll release the day splits? Really annoying me that it's less than a month until the festival and we don't know who's playing what day yet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't figure out how to copy from fb app. Go to Rock im Park page and find post from the 3rd of may. They released day tickets and wrote biggest names of each day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biffoire Posted May 6, 2016 Report Share Posted May 6, 2016 Last year the day splits were 14th May. Also, I think the App may be knackered. Hopefully it's working when the times go up. http:///s/rockimpark2015/?user=06krpr.kq& This is useful but not confirmed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biffoire Posted May 6, 2016 Report Share Posted May 6, 2016 Freitag, 3. Juni (Black Sabbath, Fettes Brot, Biffy Clyro, Korn, Bring Me The Horizon, Alligatoah, SDP, Wirtz, Johnossi, U.V.M.) 85,- Euro. Samstag, 4. Juni (Volbeat, Tenacious D, Major Lazer, The 1975, Disturbed, Breaking Benjamin, Amon Amarth, Panic! At The Disco, Rudimental, Puscifer, Of Mice & Men, U.V.M.) 80,- Euro. Sonntag, 5. Juni (Red Hot Chili Peppers, Billy Talent, The BossHoss, Deftones, Bullet For My Valentine, Heaven Shall Burn, Foals, Killswitch Engage, Trivium, Lexy & K-Paul, U.V.M.) 85,- Euro. Not exactly comprehensive. But hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ipayne Posted May 6, 2016 Report Share Posted May 6, 2016 Thank you guys, I'm going to Rock Am so it at least gives me an idea. Trying use the R&L formula to work out which days it will be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biffoire Posted May 6, 2016 Report Share Posted May 6, 2016 There are usually fewer clashes as the main stage, second stage and third stage headliners don't overlap. The stages are very close and easy to get between (main and 2nd). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeCecil Posted May 6, 2016 Report Share Posted May 6, 2016 Haven't seen it posted here, so thought I should. As of this year, those arriving on the Wednesday at Rock am Ring must pat for an early pass worth 20 euros. They won't be available at the gate, so needs to be online before arriving. Also, the LIDL on site has been expanded I think. The range seems good and prices low! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roryBreaker Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 Hi all... this will be my first trip to Rock AM Ring. What is the better financial option? Am I best having my euros in cash on me or on my account to use my card? Was planning a half and half split but not sure what the best approach is. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carioka88 Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 Hello! I am planning to go to Rock AM Ring. Is there any information in English? Where to stay and things like that...? Also, for people that have been before: is it a problem if I don't speak German at all? only danke! Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers! most germans speak good English so its not a problem, at least not in my experience. As for info I dont know what you mean?! its on a big airfield beside a small town so i doubt that there are many options other than camping on site.
