Good to know

Do I need a visa for Germany?

This destination is in the Schengen area. US, UK, EU, Canadian and Australian passport holders enter visa-free for short stays; many other nationalities need a Schengen visa — allow 4–6 weeks.

When should I book?

Fares for event weeks are usually lowest 10–12 weeks out and rise sharply after the full lineup or schedule is announced. Set a price alert early.
