The KunstRasen concert site is located in the Rheinaue in Bonn-Gronau, directly on the Rhine and on the same level as the Post Tower. The address is Charles-de-Gaulle-Strasse, 53113 Bonn. According to the organisers, parking spaces are signposted, including multi-storey car parks. The cost of a parking space is usually five to six euros.

You can also get there by public transport. The underground lines 16, 63 and 66 will take you to the stops "Rheinaue" or "Heussallee" respectively, from where it is a few minutes' walk to the concert site. Bus numbers 610 and 611 stop at "Johanniterkrankenhaus". Pedestrians and cyclists simply follow the Rhine until the site is visible and signposted.

Visitors are allowed to take bags with them, but they must not be bigger than Din-A4. You can bring a PET bottle or a tetrapack up to 0.5 litres and a blanket. Larger bags must be handed in at the cloakroom. There will be checkpoints at the entrance. Bringing other food and drinks, glass bottles, deodorant, all kinds of chairs and folding stools, prams, large umbrellas, animals, weapons, drugs, fireworks and Bengalos is not permitted.

There will be various food and drink stalls on the KunstRasen grounds. There is also a merchandise tent. At these you can pay both in cash and by card.

Of course, wheelchair users can also visit the KunstRasen. However, access is via a cobblestone path, the festival site itself is a field. There is a raised area for wheelchair users, and toilets suitable for the disabled are also available. Tickets for people with disabilities can be ordered separately by calling 0228/502010. Admission for a designated accompanying person is free. The disabled person's ID card must be shown when purchasing the ticket and at the entrance.
