BoxRec

I'll be there. Planning on getting a flight to Dusseldorf on Friday 19th and then staying at a hotel for 3 nights in Gelsenkirchen. Haven't booked anything yet though.

I'm planning on going and will be on my tod so if anyone is going to organise a trip or wouldn't mind putting up with a tag along keep it up on the board.

P.S I know how to order food and drink in German!

Ah bollocks

I`m having a piece of this.

i would imagine if i will be going on my tod too :( but there was talk early of someone buying a block of tickets to have a boxrec section, you would think it wont be to difficult for all of us to meet up.

Shirow is on the case. He's dependable.

Surely it would be better to stay in Dusseldorf, after all, after the fight, there ain't going to be a whole lot to recommend staying there is there, or is there something I don't know about Gelsenkirchen?

I like exploring lesser-known towns ........ and if I get bored Dusseldorf is a short train journey away

Oh dear, "Like Sheffield" eh? That's clinched it, Dusseldorf it is.

Only kidding, Sheffield's a great town.

Yes, i'm Jon from Queensbury Travel. I've been busy reserving flights and snapping up as many rooms within walking distance of the Arena as i can since the announcement so haven't been on much.

I'm in contact with the promoter and i've requested a big block of tickets all seated together. The pricing hasn't been released yet but i'm thinking of €100 tickets. Is that what most people had in mind to spend? I'll be getting tickets some top tickets too.
In case it hasn't been announced the tickets go on sale on April 17th.

Sorry to harp on, but do we yet know what the start time scenario is? Is it a European slot (i.e 10pm ish) or is it 3am CET ish for US tv?
