    Is there a camping for the riders near the track?Can you
    order a place for this camping?

  2. Hi Erik,

    At this point I will advice you to book a place for your camper at one of the camping grounds in Copenhagen as listed above: Ishøj Camping, Copenhagen Camping or Bellahøj Camping.

    These camping grounds are close to the track. The nearest Metro stop is about 800 meters from the track.

    However we’re trying our best to get permission to have a temporary camping facility closer to the track, but at this point it’s NOT confirmed. If we succeed with that it will be announced at our website and mailing list first thing and you can then re-book to that site.

    We look forward to seeing you in Copenhagen.

    Best regards,

    Martin Vestergaard

  6. Hi Ernesto,

    Thank you for your post. Shortly we’ll start selling online tickets. So my advice would be to buy your tickets before the event. We will also sell tickets at the event – unless the tickets are sold out :-)

    All the best,

    I think that camping ” citycamping” is also good to be for the worlds. Only 3km with the bike to the track looks to me ok. what do you think about it before i book
    thanks

  8. martin v says:

    We collaborate with City Camping and we’ve only heard positive reviews from people staying there.

    It’s a good choice for people who’re looking for a down town camping opportunity and still located close to the BMX venue .

    We’re looking forward to seeing you in Copenhagen.

    Best,
    Martin

    Hi,
    What are the parking facilities like near the venue for a motorhome? We are looking at staying at Dragor and driving to the venue on the days my son and partner are racing.
    Many thanks

    Hi,
    I plan to find a camping place and to come every day by motorhome to the track. Do the parking facilities also concern the motorhomes (during day) ?
    Best regards

    Yes they do. During day you’re more than welcome to park at the surrounding parking facilities.

    Hejsa,

    vi skal bo på Copenhagen Camping i Dragør i løbet af ugen. Bliver der arrangeret specielle busser til og fra banen fra de forskellige campingpladser, som i har anbefalet ? Her tænker jeg på, om man kan transportere cykler med offentlig transport til og fra campingpladser, hvis der er mange kørere med bybussen.

    Mvh
