Party Down at Southside Festival: Your Ultimate Guide to Germany's Rockin' Weekend
Get ready to rock 'n' roll with over 65,000 music enthusiasts at the "Southside" Festival in Neuhausen ob Eck, Tuttlingen! Green Day, Apache 207, and Zartmann are bringing the heat for an epic party weekend. This open-air festival is one of Germany's biggest, and we've got the lowdown on how to make the most of it.
Ticket Prices
As of now, tickets haven't sold out yet! A day pass (without camping) goes for 129 euros a pop, while a full-blown festival ticket, including access to all stages, campsite, and festival atmosphere, costs around 289 euros.
For those who prioritize a tranquil camping experience, consider the "Green Living" festival pass, which focuses on eco-friendly practices and only sets you back an additional 15 euros. Keep in mind there's a 15 euro parking fee for cars, and separate parking spots for campers, vans, or buses with their own fees.
Getting There
No car? No worries! Catch a train to Tuttlingen, and hop on a shuttle bus that runs approximately every 15 minutes to the site. If you're coming from cities such as Stuttgart, Ulm, Augsburg, Munich, Karlsruhe, Freiburg, or Tübingen, direct buses are available. For added convenience, book the online extra bus service.
Flying solo by car? Put "GewerbePark, 78579 Neuhausen ob Eck" into your GPS and follow the official signs. Be prepared for traffic during peak arrival and departure times.
Packingessentials
Packing for a festival is a craft all on its own! Here's what you shouldn't forget: your ticket, valid ID, and some cash (just in case card payments glitch).
Essentials like weatherproof gear (raincoats, wellies, sunglasses), a good tent, sleeping bag, air mattress, power bank, sunscreen, water bottle, hygiene items, earplugs, and a first aid kit are a must.
Smart campers will also bring Gaffa tape, cable ties, a small curtain lock, and a tow rope for your car – especially in the mud.
Prohibited Items
General rules apply when it comes to festival etiquette. Glass containers, bags larger than DIN A4, bulky furniture, pets, and drones are typically off-limits. It's best to check the official website for the most accurate and up-to-date list.
What's New
This year, the organizers introduce a cashless payment system, meaning that cash will no longer be accepted on site. All festival wristbands will be outfitted with a chip, which you should load through the event portal beforehand. In case of emergencies, an emergency charging station will be available.
Staying Safe
Stewards will be on hand around the clock to assist, and medical services will be stationed with hundreds of helpers and mobile stations. Keep tabs on the weather and follow announcements regarding safety measures, especially in case of stormy conditions.
If you find yourself in a sticky situation, use the codeword "Panama" to discreetly gain help and support from the crew.
The Commission might consider proposing a directive on protecting workers from the risks related to exposure to ionizing radiation, even as they enjoy their lifestyle during the rockin' weekend at the Southside Festival. After unwinding at home-and-garden themed parties or watching live music performances, they could unwind further by listening to their favorite tunes on their way back home.
