I know I asked something similar ages ago - might have even been a couple of years - and it was answered back then with a link to some site (probably German) that I can't find now.

Anyway, How can I find out what coasters/rides will appear at the Hamburg Dom this summer. I can find the dates, which fit in perfectly with when I'm there, but no ride line up.

Thanks.

Thanks for those. I think it was one of those first two I'd seen before, yeah.

Yay for Teststrecke I guess. I'm assuming Black Hole is the same one that popped up at Hyde Park before, as well as Wild Mouse XXL. Also assuming that Kuddel der Hai is a kiddy coaster. Ah well, I'm there anyway.

And boo for no Olympia Looping. I'm never going to get that f**king thing!

My original plan was to do the one in Dusseldorf as well, but I've pushed the trip back by a week, so I'll miss it. Also, I stupidly didn't adjust the plans to reflect this; I literally just shoved everything back a week. I was going to do it as a day trip from Cologne, but now have a spare day there.

You've pretty much managed to avoid it... It's in Duesseldorf until 23rd of July and then at a fair in Herne (same part of the country) from 3rd of August on...

^ Because obviously.

Ugh.

It's still better that I pushed the trip back though really. Otherwise, I would've been traveling back to the UK from Hong Kong and then almost immediately flying out again. Doable, but not ideal.

So annoying though. I'm in Cologne from July 28th -31st, then a night in Dortmund on August 2nd, which is basically right next to Herne, before moving onto Hamburg. Literally a day in it. F**k.

The worst thing about the whole sorry situation is the massive number of basics who have it since it showed up in London. I'm genuinely offended.

^ That's what's happened with me as well. I wasn't even thinking of the fairs when I was originally planning the trip, so Hamburg is a decent little bonus since I'm there anyway as a base for Heide and Hansa.

Juts very unlucky timing with Dusseldorf/Herne.

@NeoXIII - the map is from the Spring DOM. The official hamburg.de site is only updated the week before DOM starts.
This years Summer DOM lineup: http://www.jahrmarkt-nord.de/2017/05/hamburg-sommerdom-2017/
More information on the rides here: http://www.ride-index.de/include.php?path=start

Lineup is quite standard - nothing IMO to travel for. I would recommend Düsseldorf Rheinkirmes and - of course - Munich Oktoberfest. On the latter reasonable priced hotels can be found in Nuremberg and Augsburg - bullet train to Munich under one hour from there.
Barth has stated that he would likely not visit Hamburger DOM again as revenue is not good enough - weekdays DOM is mostly quite empty.

^Thanks for the update. It all looks very similar to Spring from what I can tell.

Like I said, I'm not travelling for this; I just happen to be in Hamburg anyway, so anything that's there is just a bonus to the major parks planned for this trip.
