VW Bus Festival in Hanover July 2022.

[Corradobrit]

Anyone going? First time this meet has been held in Hanover since 2007. I live in Hanover at the moment and eagerly waiting to take possession of my Coast (12 months and counting) early next year. It would be rude not to attend.

Thank you for posting. I am on ... and put in a trigger to check that website for updates. May also come up in the VW newsletter etc. Should be worth it ... especially with the launch of new electric models etc ... and of course - all the classics

I have already booked in a few days off for that... I was there in 2007 with my T4 (that I still have) and it was a great experience.

IT'S OFF
till next year and understandable

"we do not want to celebrate a festival when there is war in Europe and refugees arrive in Hanover and have to be cared for.” The city is currently the central point of contact for refugees in Lower Saxony.

Krause: “We will hold the festival a year later, in summer 2023 – and will already be starting ticket sales this year.”

The highlight of the year for all VW Bus fans: a festival plaza with a large stage, three different themed pavilions and a Big Wheel – three whole fantastic days celebrating the VW Camper Van.

Not yet, but planning to book Camping South Quiet zone.

Same here. Was tending towards the grassy pitches in the quiet zone.

 

[kurienp]

There is still hope ...

 

[Webbah_in_Switzerland]

I would love to go to this. Will buy tickets once the website is working!

 

[kurienp]

Well, well, well, as with all things VW, the site is up, but there is no link to purchase a ticket.

#headbang
#vwsucksonsoftware!

 

[kurienp]

Anyone got through to booking tickets as yet?

Loosing all hope of booking tickets as there is no bl**dy link on the site to book tickets. When will people learn how to make a decent piece of software!

 

[kurienp]

@Corradobrit , any luck you've had in booking tickets? are you able to see a link to book tickets?

 

[Corradobrit]

Haven't seen a link either

 

[GrumpyGranddad]

Aren’t they going on sale at 11am today? That’s probably when the link will pop up surely?

 

[GrumpyGranddad]

The link is now there.

If you’re planning to go be VERY quick. Most camping zones already sold out.

 

[Corradobrit]

I hit a snag. Since I'm still waiting for delivery of my Coast I don't have the necessary registration number to book a camping slot. No biggy I guess since I live in Hannover so I'll have to be content with a day pass.

Everything sold out except the 'Ost'

 

[kurienp]

Ok an update.

 

[kurienp]

just got the above and have been able to book. Card payment option not working, but GPay works.

Yay! so I am going! Looking forward to seeing some of this group there. Have booked the silent camping area

 

[kurienp]

Though, no confirmation email or anything of that sort. ... yet ...

The way things have gone, I expect a lot of chaos on tickets and booking.

I was able to book the Sud Quiet Zone.
I think either pitches were being offered gradually or when I was checking the pitches were blocked for 30 mins while people confirmed their orders. After getting a confirmation from the organizers I could use a placeholder registration number I went back noticed most zones were bookable at 4pm CST.
I got my preferred zone 10 mins from the Expo. I also paid with MC and got an email confirmation immediately. Hope you have yours now @kurienp

Now all I need is my Coast which is still AWOL, 21 months and counting.......
