Does any of the Finnish people know if Elannontie 9, Helsinki-Vantaa is close to the festival spot?

For Finland we are going to book a hotel, anyone else? Maybe we can book it as a group and get a discount? And ofcourse have a lot of fun at the hotel :-D



I'll see you there!


I'll try to find a dutch cookbook for you George!! :flower:

I have a plan for us to get to the front. We all need to start working out like crazy and get huge with ripped abs. I am sure there is a store somewhere in Helsinki that sells red capes, sheilds, and spears. After we are ripped and have all of our gear the 300 of us can make our way into the festival and charge into the crowd. There might be a lot of them but they can be defeated.

:P


We will be true Vikings when we storm the front of the festival :green:

I'm in! Starting workout this afternoon :flower:

To Shrink: Elannontie 9 is by the airport (which is about 18km north of central Helsinki), this Ankkarock festival area is about 15km further north from airport. Here you can see both the airport and Ankkarock Festival area. http://www.ankkarock.fi/index.php?group=7&page=25 (pls PM me if more info is needed)

If I may suggest, if you are reserving hotel rooms, go for those near central Helsinki. Those hotels that are close the airport are pretty much in the middle of nowhere, and there is not many bars around or things to do. Anyway, most people come to Ankkarock by train (which is just a few euros from central Helsinki). And it’s easy to find there: ask or just follow the trail of teenagers dressed in black from the central railway station :D

Since TG seems to be one of the headliners on Saturday, and the last artist usually stops playing abound nine-ten in the evening at Ankkarock on Saturday. I would assume they get a slot after six in the evening. Hard to guess this now and then there’s also the risk of changes during the last days.

To Jeffs: Yes, you should be able to get near the front if you push your way in there from the side...

If I go, I am going through New York! I will probably stay a week in Finland (hey, since I am already going..doesn't hurt to get to know the country a bit! ahah).. as soon as I have a better Idea of my intinerary I will let you know.. For now I think I am going on the 1st of august and staying a week or so....

I will attend both days of the fest as well :)
