Furthermore, the e-ticket is much cheaper than any ticket bought on the day. Daily tickets cost 45 euros online whereas the price at the ticket offices onsite in Düsseldorf is 65 euros. Visitors who want to come to drupa for more than one day also profit from the online offers. A three-day card is available via the internet for 120 euros instead of 175 euros when purchased onsite. When buying the five-day ticket you can save as much as 100 euros and pay 190 euros instead of 290 euros when purchased on-site. Reduced price tickets for students and trainees are also much cheaper online: 15 euros instead of 25 euros onsite.
If you're looking for a place to stay at drupa, Düsseldorf Marketing & Tour-ismus (DMT) offers an excellent service. This local organisation has the best overview of hotels and private accommodation available in Düsseldorf and surrounding areas during drupa. They will also help visitors with their booking arrangements. The range of hotels has expanded further since the last drupa. Currently there are nearly 79,000 hotel beds available in the Düsseldorf metropolitan area. In the Düsseldorf city region alone around 1,000 new hotel beds have been created in recent years and another 900 beds in the surrounding towns (e.g. Essen, Krefeld, Mönchengladbach or Wuppertal). The DMT has put together its complete service package for drupa online which is certainly worth a click: http://business.duesseldorf-tourismus.de/messe/drupa/.
The drupa exhibition is open daily from 10.00 to 18.00 hours (up to 17.00 hours at the weekend). All drupa tickets include free return travel to the trade show by bus, train and tram within the local travel networks Verkehrsverbunds Rhein-Ruhr (VRR) and Rhein-Sieg (VRS) (2nd class, only trains without surcharges). More information on the route network can be found at http://www.vrr.de and www.vrs-info.de.
Added to this is an attractive offering from Messe Düsseldorf, Deutsche Bahn and DMT specifically for drupa visitors who live outside these two transport networks: You can travel from all German cities – whether Ham-burg or Munich – for 99 euros return to Düsseldorf. This offer is valid for second class tickets and can be booked around three months to prior to the event.
