Know Before You Go

  • Parking: Four parking areas sit close by; short-term parking at the service building is restricted by construction and may close temporarily.

Tips & Advice

  • Time your visit for the early evening, when an elaborate light and sound show runs every day and turns the whole grounds into a sea of lights.
  • If you're coming by train before December 12, check your connection first, because building work on the Hanover–Berlin line means no long-distance trains serve Wolfsburg.
  • From Wolfsburg main station or the central bus station, it's only a few minutes on foot over the city bridge to the grounds.
  • Short-term parking at the service building is limited by construction and may close temporarily, so parking areas P1, P2 or P3 are the safer bet.
  • Dress warmly for the outdoor ice rink and snow playground, and bring gloves if you plan to skate or try curling.
