No. 23 Combined tickets for the gamescom opening concert available now
From 18th to 22nd August 2010, the motto for gamescom - Europe's leading trade fair for interactive games and entertainment - is, once again: "Celebrate the Games". The entire city Cologne is celebrating the real world of the games - from the trade fairs, over Tanzbrunnen to the city centre. Then, the gamescom festival will bring the games into town and will be opened by no less than Stanfour and Revolverheld at Tanzbrunnen on 18th August 2010. During the last few years, both bands have conquered the charts with their albums and are rocking the Cathedral and trade fair city with their current tour programme.
Now, the combined ticket is available to those who do not want to miss the trade fair spectacle gamescom and the open air concert highlight. Public and trade visitors can buy the ticket for 20 ¤ in the e-shop. To benefit from the reduced prices, one has to show a gamescom admission ticket (from 6 ¤) in addition to the concert ticket at the opening concert - regardless if bought in advance, in the e-shop or in the ordinary advance selling. Thus, in the most favourable case, concert and a day visit at gamescom costs 26 ¤. Both tickets will be checked accordingly at the entrance. Trade visitors can also buy the concert ticket on the media and trade visitors' day at the trade fair.
