Buses will travel directly to the Leipzig exhibition grounds from Berlin, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Cologne, Munich, and another 27 cities. The service will operate on Saturday, 23 August, and from selected cities on Friday, 22 August.
Compared with rail, air, or car travel, Connect GC claims several advantages. Buses can operate flexibly, travel directly to the exhibition, and run with relatively few passengers. Transfers and intermediate stops are eliminated, shortening journey times substantially compared with rail on many routes.
The buses are also inexpensive. Connect GC offers return travel to Games Convention from €35.
Connect GC is intended to provide flexible, direct, low-cost travel from Germany’s major cities to Games Convention. The relaxed bus journey is designed to leave visitors fresh and ready for the exhibition.
