Nearest big city
Z�rich
How to get to the city
You can get easy access from the Airport to Z�rich downtown by the Swiss
Railway
www.sbb.ch.
Tickets
How to get to the venue
Trains will depart from D�bendorf Station every 6 minutes till 1.30 a.m.
The area will be open for DJ Music, eating and drinking till 2.00 a.m. They
want to avoid that too many fans depart the same time (and making money of
course). After party could happen there or near to main station Zurich,
the old town would not be far away.

Recommended hotels
Besides the Ibis in Oerlikon there is also Ibis, Etap & Novotel
in the quarter "Z�rich West" which is near to the train station Bahnhof
Hardbr�cke. This train station is directly connected to the airport, the
main station and the station "D�bendorf". Would be good for people from abroad
which have to fly in. The recommended city of Rapperswil is beautiful. But
it will be hard to come back there after the concert. Ok if you go quick
to the D�bendorf station, back to Zurich main station and changing trains
quickly it's probably possible. Otherwise by taxi it's not affordable at
all.
www.zuerich.com will give you an idea about hotels.
if you would like to stay out of town a nice place is
www.rapperswil.ch.
It's about half an hour ride with S5 from zurich main station.
cheaphotels:
look at
www.accor.com
for Formule one and IBIS. There are located near
Oerlikon.
Yes we do have also a McDonaldsHotel in Zurich (and one in
Estavayer-le-lac) which is unique in the world.
www.hotels4you.ch is also a good thing to get idea of the hotels.
Meeting place for fans
In case of rain:
"Imagine" at main station and "News Bar" (Bahnhofplatz 2)
right opposite the main entrance of the main station, over the place.
In case of a sunny day:
"Bausch�nzli" (Stadthausquai 13) from main station walk along the river
Limmat in direction to the lake of Zurich. This restaurant is placed on a
"half-island" in the river Limmat. You can see this place right before the
last bridge over the river before the lake. Everybody in Zurich knows this
place. If somebody has to ask that would be not problem at all. It's kind
of a "Biergarten". People can eat but don't have to eat there. They can choose
self service or served (a little bit finer dining in served area).
DAY OF CONCERT:
Also "News Bar" as meeting point or "Imagine" or "Federal".
Recommended bars/restaurants
Restaurants in the old town: "Johanniter" (Niederdorfstr. 70) Bluetige Duume
Rheinfelder Bierhaus (Marktgasse 19)
Bars in the old town: Z�ri Bar (Niederdorfstr. 24) (sometimes cool music)
