Eat, Drink & Fly - Weeze Airport

At the first floor of the airport before check-in, you can have a meal at a self-service restaurant. I enjoyed a well sized German Schnitzel meal. There even is an outside terras with a lookoff to the platform activities.

The airport probably is the cheapest one fir the company in theDutch, Belgium and German area.Just bring your (at home) printed boarding pass and your passport and you are set to fly.The waiting area after passport control is sober, but... 

V Bird ---- BANKRUPT

V Bird ---- BANKRUPT, Weeze

 sabsi Says:  I KEEP THIS TIP HERE IN CASE VBIRD WILL COME BACK BUT FOPR NOW THEY HAVE DECLARED THEMSELVES BANKRUPT AND THE PLANES STAY ON THE GROUND. Ryanair still uses Weeze Niederrhein airport though and announced that they might take over some of VBird's routes... fingers...

Public Transport to Niederrhein Airport, Weeze

 sabsi Says:  There's a shuttle bus that connects Niederrhein Airport with Düsseldorf main station every two hours. The trip takes approx. 75 minutes and it costs 11 Euro. When your plane is late, however, and you have missed your bus (like we have) this might help you:You can call... 

Where the hell is Weeze?

Where the hell is Weeze?, Weeze

 sabsi Says:  The festival takes place at Weeze Airport (Flughafen Niederrhein). This is one of the airports by Ryan Air that claim to be somewhere else ;-) Weeze is called Duesseldorf in Ryan Air Terms but it's 100 kms north from Duesseldorf. From Duesseldorf or the Rhineland/Ruhr Area... 

Train

Train, Weeze

 Gili_S Says:  There is very small train station here, I think there is only one line, Dusseldorf - Kleve.This is good connection for the users of the nearby airport. Take the train to Dusseldorf if you plan to travel further in Germany or take it to Kleve if you want to go to Holland. 

Airport Niederrhein

Airport Niederrhein, Weeze

 Gili_S Says:  This is very small airport near the town, only few small airlines use it, but you can get very cheap flights to several destinations around Europe.

Luggage and bags: During Terremoto 2003 the weather was quite rough. There was heavy rain just before the festival started. I was happy that I brought my waterproof bag and a jacket because it got quite cold in the evenings!

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Docs or other mud and rain resistant boots. Everybody at the festival looks quite scruffy - even some bands ;-) So wear whatever you like.... I even saw people wearing plastic bags!

Photo Equipment: I was happy I had a good zoom so I could some nice pics of the performances on stage.

Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: We drove home every night to sleep in our own beds but normally people sleep in tents here. We were lucky to have a VIP parking ticket so we didn't have to park near the campground which is miles away from the stage!!

Miscellaneous: The most important thing for us to bring was the backstage tickets of course. They gave us the chance to get to know the artists and have a look "behind the scenes".
