Public transport ticket

Only registered persons will get this ticket
For easy travelling in the region all registered people will get access to an online ticket for public transport from 15.11.-20.11 for the regional "VRR area". You can view the ticket area on the website of the local transport association (you can use every white area). The most important information for you:

• Only registered persons will get the ticket as a PDF after the registration and before they start travelling. It is a special event ticket which would be more expensive if you would buy this for your travel on your own.
• You can take any bus, tram, regional/local trains in this area (but no high-speed trains! - they are called ICE, IC or EC).
• For example, you can take a regional train from Düsseldorf airport (DUS) to come to Dortmund. Trip to Dortmund central station takes approx. 50 minutes.
• For example, you can take a regional train from Bochum or Essen to the event, if you have your hotel in these cities.
• For people that arrive at Dortmund (regional) airport. Please note, that the AirportExpress and AirportShuttle busses are not included in the ticket as these busses are operated by private companies. You can take normal Dortmund city busses from the airport to the city.
• On the event days, you can use this public transport ticket to come to the event.
