How to get to the venue
The stadium Letzigrund in Zurich is an oval football stadium (open air),
similar to the Stade de France, just smaller. Seats are basically all
covered, but not numbered.
The Letzigrund is not really in the city center, but in the outskirts and
can be reached very easily by tram within some 20 minutes from the
center/train station.
It's the same stadium where the Golden League athletics meeting takes place
every August.
Tram no 3 to
ALBISRIEDERPLATZ and walk 300 meters to LETZIGRUND or take tram no 2
at STAUFFACHER to LETZIGRUND.
See
www.zvv.ch.
Avoid coming by car as Park and Ride places are only in Altstetten and it
will take hours to get out again.
You can also take a bus route to Letzigrund and you can walk of course, which
can take more than half an hour.
