Halftime show in Graz: Transport chaos and tips for concert goers

Halftime show in Graz: Transport chaos and tips for concert goers

Next Saturday, November 16, 2024, the town hall in Graz will become the scene of a large event. The Austrian musician Andreas Gabalier, known as the "Bard of Volks-Rock'nroll", will present his spectacular "Halftime Show 1984". Due to this top -class event, the ARBÖ traffic experts expect a significant volume of traffic in the region.

The possible consequences for traffic are already pointed out. Many fans are expected to arrive by car, which could lead to long traffic jams and waiting times. Conrad-von-Hötzendorf-Straße, Fröhlichgasse as well as the Jakominigürtel and the Schönaugürtel are expected to be particularly affected. Visitors must also expect delays when they leave.

Visitors should consider alternatives

In view of the predicted traffic problems, experts advise you to consider the journey by public transport. Thomas Haider, an ARBÖ traffic expert, recommends that visitors to use the tram lines 4, 5 and 6, all of which keep near the town hall. This could help to avoid the stress of parking and uncertainty about traffic. For those who still want to travel by car, there is the opportunity to park in the underground car park in Fröhlichgasse, which is one of the few alternatives, since the parking facilities in the area are limited.

In addition to the traffic instructions, the event also offers a special celebration mood. Andreas Gabalier will not only offer an incredible show program, but will also celebrate his own 40th birthday. This anniversary immediately falls on November 21, which further increases the anticipation for the concert and the associated celebrations. Gabalier’s performance not only attracts fans from the area, but also visitors from outside, which should further increase traffic.
