ZURICH OPENAIR 2024
The ZÜRICH OPENAIR is coming to rock the city on 23 & 24 and 30 & 31 August 2024! This is the first time that the festival is being split up into two weekends rather than taking place over a four- or five-day stretch.
This year's line-up includes Sam Smith, Martin Garrix, Raye, The Blaze, Giant Rook, Macklemore, Loyle Carner, Zoe Wees, Nemo, Jorja Smith, James Arthur, Rin, Tom Grennan, Anne-Marie, Aurora, Sugababes and many, many more.
All other information is on the festival website.
When: 23-24 August and 30-31 August 2024
Where: Flughofstrasse 21, 8152 Opfikon
The festival area is located just outside the city of Zurich, right next to Zurich Airport. You can reach the festival area by public transport. Take the train to the rail station «Glattbrugg», for example, and either walk from there following the signs (about 10 minutes' walk) or take the tram. Take trams 10 and 12 to the «Rümlang, Bäuler» stop.
The festival tickets and passes include public transport fares for all zones and all lines of the Zurich Transit Community (ZVV).
If you're knackered at the end of a festival day (and night) and just want to get home as quickly as possible (and you don't mind the fares), take a taxi. Queues of taxis wait near the «Rümlang, Bäuler» stop all night.
