it's a bit late but you could get a train connection to Vienna at the same day... but maybe not to the festival area :/ and of course - as it's Saturday, you have to go there just for the Apes Big Grin

In any case we'd recommend you flying with ryanair via Bratislava Smile

Hey there! How's that going?)
I'm trying to understand when and where 1 day tickets will be available?
And do you know what's the cheapest way to get to Vienna from St-Petersburg,Russia? If you could help, it could be awesome!
Maybe plane to Berlin, and from Berlin...for instance..to Vienna
Thanks)

@ Electric_Nights: 1-day-tickets will be available in May (there is no information about it on the Nova Rock site, but in the forum the promoter of the festival confirmed that)
We'll try to look up a flight connection for you!
Wow, cool that you're willing to travel to Nova Rock from so far away Happy

Are you gonna travel with bagpack (checked luggage) and just a small bag??? It's important to know that, because of cheap fares are always without checked luggage and if you try to enter aicraft with bigger bag, they will send you to desk to check your luggage and pay about 50 EUR for that... Then I will tell you cheapest way how to get to Austria...

hmm Air Berlin flys directly from St. Petersburg to Vienna, but the cheapest flight i found was about 300€ (round trip) Shocked

Possibly you could also go by train to Helsinki and fly from there to Bratislava or Vienna? If i remember rightly, there are quite good train connections (about 50€) from St. Petersburg to Helsinki (twice a day)...?

but I'll continue searching Wink

hold the line please

and concerning where to buy the 1-day-tickets... i don't know actually, but since it will be only a small contingent i assume they'll just sell them per pre-sale in Austria :/ but that shouldn't be the problem, i could buy it for you & then send it by mail!

I don't think that the weight of our luggage will be too big)
About the flight-we thought it could be nice to fly from St-Petersburg to a German city (for example to Berlin) -plus I heard the flights to Berlin are more cheap than to Vienna..and then to Munchen and to Vienna by bus or car (it may take maybe 3 days before Novarock) and toooooo the festival)
And on the way back flying from Vienna (directly)..
That's like a good example of our methods of reaching the festival)
I don't know-is that a normal way?)

Yes, that's why we heard about Berlin as a good possibility..plus I want to see Berlin again))
I don't know why but the flight St-Petersburg-Vienna is one of the most expensive here)
Thank you for the attention and your help Big Grin

you're welcome!

St. Petersburg - Berlin Tegel and back would be 181 €, but the question is how you get to Austria from there (or to Munich, then we could pick you up^^), because going by train in Germany is quite expensive. Buses are not easy to find and by car.. what were you thinking about, rent one or hitch-hiking..?
and flying - hm.. from Berlin to Vienna & back it costs 93 €... that means 274 € altogether = nearly as much as you'd pay for the direct flight from St. Petersburg

argh.. *searches on*

Staying at a hostel in Berlin (can you advice smth.)
Berlin-Munich 19.06 (by car,hitch-hiking I guess..you know I heard, that there's smth. like special sites where you can find a driver, that' s ready to pick you?...)
Having a day in Munich, staying at a hostel
And meeting with you and going tooooo 20.06...))) if it's ok-it could be really great))
Then rock on!)
And then 22.06 going to Vienna and from Vienna to St-Petersburg (flight)..

Of course you can find any driver but you have to pay him Big Grin

That's why these sites exist... If you go by bus to Riga, fly to Prague and then by bus to Vienna (only up to 5 hours), you'll pay about 200 EUR total incl luggage

And even if so, it could be nice to meet in Munchen and go to Vienna and Nickelsdorf. If we'll go hitch-hiking do you want to stay for a day in Vienna before fest or no?
Won't you mind if we'll keep in touch by e-mail later? Cool

If I hadn't already bought a ticket for AC/DC on the 21st in Gothenborg I would defenitly go to Nova Rock. This is no doubt the best festival this year. Names like Metallica, Guano Apes, Trivium etc gives me an erection. I'm still considering to sell my AC/DC ticket and go to Nova Rock instead. Damn...great dilemma!

huh? You paid 5 € for beer @ RaR or what? Well i think it's a good thing.. 1 € or 5 € makes indeed a difference and at Nova Rock you are not allowed to take any liquids with you, so have to buy something to drink soon or later... sucks if it's that expensive then...
