We had a good donder around all the fantastic and varied stalls. This had taken over an hour by this point so we decided to head out into the Wackinger Village to see where everything was and go for a nosy around the stalls etc. We then headed back down to the VIP/Press entrance and into the festival grounds.

Soooo off we went on our expedition and further up a back road until we finally found it, yay! We got there, do the normal British thing – queued up and got the passes no problem.

After being dropped off at the main entrance, we were told we need to head to the other side of Wacken Town to collect our press passes! We managed to get a taxi that dropped us off at the address they were given by the steward and was on our letter, however the check in bit was a lot further up so we decided to walk it instead as the taxi driver wasn’t sure even though stewards said where it was. Neil and I had an interesting start to our festival. It great to see the community getting involved, embracing the festival. Thursday – Our first day at Wacken, I was looking forward to seeing The Holy Wacken Land for the first time.Īs the coach drove through a few small sleepy villages until we spot the Wacken Tower from afar and we start to see lots of metal heads, entrepreneurial children offering to kart back your supplies for a few euros! As well as town residents operating bars, food stalls in their gardens. Before heading to Wacken on the Thursday am.

We arrived in Hamburg on the Wednesday lunchtime so had time to explore parts of the city as well as going to the Hard Rock Cafe there. There are other companies, planetmosh do not endorse Argon events We had used the company last year for travelling/hotel for Hellfest so were happy to use them again.Įd.

We choose to go to Wacken by coach from London and do the hotel package with Argon Events.
