Frequently asked questions

What do I do in bad weather conditions?

Weather conditions can vary greatly depending on the day. It's always a good idea to check the weather forecast in advance. That way you can plan better whether you should pack sun cream or a rain poncho. Warm clothes for the evening can't hurt either, because even in summer it can get chilly in the evening at an open air event. Nothing is worse than standing in the rain or freezing in the cold without being prepared!

How do I get to the Open Air and where can I park?

Getting to the open air depends on the venue. Many open-air events are easily accessible by public transport, which is often the least stressful option. If you want to travel by car, find out about the parking options on site beforehand. There are often special parking spaces for event visitors. It is always advisable to arrive early to avoid traffic jams and stress. Bicycles are also often a good alternative, especially for urban events.

What security measures are in place?

The security measures at an open air event are determined by the organizers and can vary depending on the event. There are usually bag checks at the entrance and certain admission restrictions to ensure the safety of all visitors. Pay attention to what you can and cannot bring with you. There is usually information about this on the event website or directly on site. Always have your ID with you and follow the instructions of the security staff.

Is food and drink available?

Most open airs have a variety of food stalls offering everything from snacks to full meals. There is also no shortage of drinks - from soft drinks and beer to cocktails, there is often everything on offer. Find out in advance whether you are allowed to bring your own snacks and drinks, as the rules can vary from event to event. Many events also offer vegan and vegetarian options, so just look around!

What does the program and line-up look like?

The program and line-up varies depending on the open air. You can find the latest information on the event's official website or here, on rausgegangen.de. There you can find out which artists are performing, which stages there are and when the highlights are taking place. It's worth making a plan beforehand so that you don't miss your favorite acts and can get the most out of your open-air experience.

Look forward to an unforgettable open air and have a great time! 💜
