There is more of that in Hamburg,mate.

I arrive about 7.30 pm on Friday and back on Sunday afternoon (Bergen - Frankfurt - Hamburg). Staying about 5 mins walk from the Reeperbahn. 130 Euro tickets.

It` just me and an Aussie mate, so we`d be up for beers on Friday night or Saturday afternoon for pre fight lash.

Fight tickets arrived yesterday.

Me & 6 mates. Fly out from Gatwick to Hamburg on Friday back late on the Sunday after the German Derby (Horse racing). Staying at the Marriott.

Anyone planning on going to the weigh in?

Am hoping it is a public one. For this sort of event it must be surely!

The big advert in this months BM by sportsfirst.biz offering amazing deals. Done a bit of research and apparently they a fraudsters. Be careful.

Me and 3 other lads from s.Wales staying in the Marriott too. Also planning on the horse racing any idea wot time the races start/finish, flying back from Bremen at 9.40 so time may be a bit tight

Yes, you can buy a ticket for 29 Euros which gives up to 5 people unlimited travel within that German state all day. Great value.

Yes, either from one of the ticket machines or over the counter.

How far is it from the airport to Hamburg Central? Any idea on prices,times etc, i presume there train service is better than ours.

We are on the 8:10am flight to hannover from gatwick on the Saturday morning, then train from hannover to Hamburg, straight to digs to drop bags off, straight out on it.

Hope there will be a thread about this nearer the time but would be good to meet up with a few fellow Boxrec posters.

We'll be going to the 'usual places' in Hamburg, before and after the fight,

Cannot wait for this!!

Be aware, however, that those tickets are only valid on regional trains (RE/RB or ME/MER) and not on the express trains (ICE, IC,EC). It still only takes about 1hr10-1hr30mins on the regional trains though
