How to travel to Burgdorfer Rocknight

- By plane

As Switzerland is quite small and as Burgdorf is quite central, all Swiss airports are ok to use to get to Switzerland. All Swiss airports offer direct train connections with a train station built into the airport. We recommend that you fly to one of the Swiss airports then take the train to come to Burgdorf. From Burgdorf, there will be special busses driving to the festival, so make sure to well phase your journey with the departure of these special shuttle busses. The busses depart at 19.35, 20.15, 20.55 and 21.48. Visit the homepage of the Swiss Railways (SBB) to find out how to best come from the airport of your choice to Burgdorf.

There are quite a few low-cost airlines flying to Switzerland. We recommend the following: 

• easyJet.com (to Zurich, Basel and Geneva)
  

• Air Berlin (to Zurich and Basel)
  

• FlyBe.com (from England to Bern)

• eDreams.com (low-cost search engine which covers all renomeed airlines. Highly recommended!)
  

- By Train

Visit the homepage of the Swiss Railways (SBB) to find out how to best come from your hometown or the next larger city of your choice to Burgdorf (searches all Europe!). From Burgdorf, there will be special busses driving to the festival, so make sure to well phase your journey with the departure of these special shuttle busses. The busses depart at 19.35, 20.15, 20.55 and 21.48.

- By Car 

We recommend to use online routing on homepages like ViaMichelin or Map24. As destination, enter "Industrie Neuhof, 3422 Kirchberg BE" or likewise. Make sure that you have Kirchberg BE entered, since there is another (and larger) Kirchberg in Switzerland - that's 150km east tho ;)

Where to sleep

Right after the Rocknight, there will be shuttle busses driving back to Bern and Burgdorf, as there will be no trains driving anymore at that time. We present you a selection of hotels nearby. Best is likely if you take the Bus to Bern after the Rocknight and take the youth hostel there. There are though some hotels around the venue as well.
