Tips for Solo American? - Hurricane
Hello! I apologize in advance for posting English.
I'll be visiting Germany for a week and a half and I'm planning on going to the Hurricane Festival. I was planning on buying my camping gear from Decathalon and probably just throwing it away after. I've never done a camping festival before, let alone in a completely different country so I'm a bit nervous. Does anyone have any tips for me? Will I be able to make friends over there?
Thanks for the help!

Hey,
welcome to the forum.
Instead of throwing away a newly bought tent you could also just rent one at the festival. Information here: https://www.hurricane.de/de/wohnen/mein ... ht-schon1/ (you can switch to english there)

Hi there,
For your camping gear:
On the campsite are spots from the "Rotenburger Tafel e.V." they collect food for poor and/or homeless people. There you can help these people, please do not throw the stuff away.

Thanks for the reply! I would rather rent a tent but those prices are insane. If I do end up buying tents, I will definitely go with Smi's suggestion and donate it. I'd much rather the tents be used for a good cause than to be thrown away!Blackstar hat geschrieben: ↑Mi 5. Jun 2019, 09:57Hey,

Re: Tips for Solo American? - Hurricane
Thanks for the info! I had no idea about that and donating sounds like a much better solution. Would you happen to know if Aldi will still be selling camping equipment during that time?
Re: Tips for Solo American? - Hurricane
Aldi changes its non-food products every week. Some items are available for several weeks, but i would not count on it.Planbaker922 hat geschrieben: ↑Mi 5. Jun 2019, 10:07Thanks for the info!

Decathlon is a good option for good value for your money.

Hi!
I think the best option is to buy a tent and donate it afterwards, as the others told already.
Moreover I think you wont have any problems to make friends and meet people there
If you want to, you can also search for people in this board who plan to go alone to hurricane or you use an app like spontacts. There you can also find people who search for mates to go to hurricane
Just one more question: Did you buy your ticket via the official website? if you buy it private you have to be careful to not be scammed

Thanks for the tips. And yes I did buy it off the website! I haven't received anything in the mail yet though. Do you know how long it takes?DonFernando hat geschrieben: ↑Mi 5. Jun 2019, 11:00Hi!
