The current information applies to the 2025 festival and is subject to change in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Expand the following sections to learn more:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-accordion-1b12d1ec\" data-has-schema=\"false\" class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-accordion icon-first\">\n<details class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-accordion-item\"><summary class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-accordion-item__title\"><div>Arrival and Departure<\/div><\/summary><div class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-accordion-item__content\">\n<p>The festival takes place on the edge of the forest near the village of Koppatz, near Cottbus. <br><br>Adress:<br><br>Alte Schulstra\u00dfe 11 <br>03058 Neuhausen\/Spree OT Koppatz <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can get there by the following means:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>By Public Transportation<\/strong><br><br>1. First, you need to get to Cottbus, which is easy to do from Dresden, Leipzig, and Berlin via the RE or ICE. Of course, you can also get there from any other locations not listed here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. Next, take the RE 65 toward Zittau from Cottbus to Neuhausen\/Spree. It\u2019s just one stop, and the ride takes about 7 minutes. BUT PLEASE NOTE: You must press the \u201cstop button\u201d on the train to ensure it stops at Neuhausen. This train runs once an hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. From the Neuhausen train station to Koppatz (\u201cZiebart Auto Repair Shop\u201d), you\u2019ll walk through a beautiful forest (about 25 minutes \/ 2.7 km)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. We are trying to organize a shuttle service for the festival, both for luggage and for you. However, it will not be able to run every hour. Updates will follow shortly before the festival begins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>By Car<\/strong><br><br>1. Your first stop, accessible from almost any direction, is Cottbus. You can find the exact address of the venue for your GPS above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. The best way to reach Cottbus by car is via the A13 if you\u2019re coming from Berlin or Dresden. If you\u2019re coming from the direction of Leipzig, we recommend taking the B87 instead. Drive on it until Duben, and then just the last 40 km on the A15 to Cottbus-S\u00fcd, as this is 50 km shorter (and saves fuel). The same route applies to everyone coming from Berlin or Dresden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. The camping area is NOT a parking lot and must not be driven on by cars, as it is used for regular agricultural purposes. All cars that are not clearly campers must be parked in designated parking areas, which will be located not far from the camping area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. We will set up an area for campers. PLEASE BRING A TARP TO PLACE UNDER YOUR CAR!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-accordion-item\"><summary class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-accordion-item__title\"><div>Residents<\/div><\/summary><div class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-accordion-item__content\">\n<p>Collaboration with residents of the neighboring town of Koppatz is essential to the success of this project and is a priority for us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Koppatz residents have already been actively involved in recent years, taking on important tasks and providing materials. We want to expand this collaboration to create a project that preserves our shared interests while also fostering opportunities for exchange and establishing an alternative cultural offering in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> As the Feldsalat e.V. association, it is very important to us to foster a positive relationship with the residents of the surrounding villages. We have long been in close contact with the local communities and have presented our association\u2019s goals as well as the concept behind the Feldsalat festival. In addition, we aim to further expand our collaboration with the residents of the neighboring town of Koppatz. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Respecting the needs of local residents is therefore our top priority. We take their concerns seriously and are actively committed to minimizing any disruption caused by the festival. In doing so, we pay particular attention to noise control measures and ensuring that quiet hours are observed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a gesture of goodwill for the noise disturbance we will cause, all residents of Koppatz are welcome to visit the festival grounds free of charge.

Therefore, we would like to use our resources more effectively in this regard <br><br>The festival grounds are easily accessible by ambulance in case of an emergency, and the emergency room is about a 20-minute drive away.

As a nonprofit organization, we rely on your support to keep ticket prices as low as possible. This means that when you purchase a ticket, you choose and take on a shift. If you\u2019re also interested in getting more involved in the project, there are several options available for that as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find more information on the \u201cParticipatory Festival\u201d page, which we highly recommend checking out if this is your first time visiting Feldsalat.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-accordion-item\"><summary class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-accordion-item__title\"><div>Music<\/div><\/summary><div class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-accordion-item__content\">\n<p>Feldsalat is first and foremost a cultural and music festival. We go to great lengths to offer you a diverse lineup with plenty of energy on the dance floors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The camping area is not a dance floor but a place to relax, so please refrain from playing loud music there. Leave your big speakers at home and dance to the music on the dance floors instead. Once the DJs and bands have stopped playing, it\u2019s time to quiet down in the camp as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Loud music on your part can also cause problems outside the festival grounds. We work with, not against, local residents and the natural environment, and we want as much mutual consideration as possible. So if we notice that you\u2019re setting up your own little dance floor in the woods, we reserve the right to end your participation in the festival. That may sound harsh, but to ensure sustainable cooperation and many more Feldsalat festivals, it\u2019s necessary to stick to the agreements.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-accordion-item\"><summary class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-accordion-item__title\"><div>Nature<\/div><\/summary><div class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-accordion-item__content\">\n<p>Mother Nature is our most precious resource.
