Parking chaos at Störtebeker Festival: travelers frustrated!

The rush is large every year when the Störtebeker Festival in Ralswiek open their goals on the Great Jasmunder Bodden. But this year a new regulation causes considerable irritation - especially among the coaches. Because the former option to remove the coach in the immediate vicinity of the open -air stage is a passé. Instead, all buses have to park in the Gnies parking lot, which is about ten minutes walk from the festival area. This is a real annoyance for many visitors, not least for people with walking disabilities.

like Ostsee-Zeitung reports, the district has issued a traffic law order that prohibits the coaches to enter the town of Ralswiek between 5 p.m. and 11 p.m. This measure leads to chaotic departure scenes, because it is no longer possible to pick up passengers according to the ideas. The last shuttle bus drives at 1 a.m., after a performance that ends at 10:30 p.m. What remains are concerned voices of participants who find this regulation unreasonable.

weaknesses in the implementation of the new regulation

While the organizers announced that the introduction of a paid shuttle service of five euros for the return trip from parking lot B 96 to the festival area was well received, the displeasure of the tour operators about the short-term changes remains noticeable. You will find the new conditions impractical for guests, especially for older people and people with mobility -related restrictions. The path from the gnies parking lot is uneven floor and contains a staircase, which in no way easier the situation for the disabled.

The old parking lot regulation was not only practical, but also of great importance for the comfort of the guests. Now part of the parking lot is reserved for employees, while the other half is managed by the community, which complicates the use for the festival visitors. At the same time, the Störtebeker Festival rejected the paid use and are planning a new transport system for future events to improve the situation.

The festival and their requirements

The Störtebeker Festival put on a pleasant atmosphere and security according to Störtebeker.de. The house rules, which also apply to the new regulations, emphasize that visitors should respectfully deal with each other and have to adhere to the instructions of the staff. Safety controls, including pocket controls, are carried out and access can be denied people or that is influenced by noise. This should guarantee the smooth running of the events.

Despite this inelegant situation, the Störtebeker Festival is a Highlight in the region's cultural calendar. The combination of gripping theater and the picturesque backdrop of the great Jasmunder Bodden attracts many visitors every year. With a clever revision of the transport offer, a better experience for everyone can be created.
