Go Mika!!!!

 

sorry lucrezia...i'm taking all your post!

 

Here's the English of the info provided by MrsBrightside about getting to the venue.

 

The easiest option's the taxi: Ciampino's much closer than Rome Termini to the Ippodromo, about 10 minutes away. It should cost more or less 15 euro.

 

The Capannelle train station's about a kilometre away from the Ippodromo - a long way to walk in the July sun! The trains that go to Ciampino from Termini are the regional trains to Albano, Frascati, Velletri e Cassino.

 

For those coming by car:

 

"The Ippodromo is situated near the junction between via delle Capannelle and via Appia Nuova (State Road [strada Statale] 7). It can be reached from exit 23 (Appia, direction of Rome city centre) of the Grande Raccordo Anulare. In the summer the many concerts are held there. Depending on the number of people expected there can either be a small stage near the entrance, or a larger one on the track.

 

Outside the venue there is a car park, where you pay a fixed price to park. The places are standing, but at the side of the large stage there are also seats. At the side of the small stage there are bars and restaurants, and it's possible to watch the concert whilst eating and drinking.

 

In general the acoustics are good near the stage, but they get worse the further away you are.

 

Address:

Via Appia Nuova, 1245

00185 Rome

Italy"

 

Here's a map of the entrance:

For those driving to the venue:

 

Exit no.23 Via Appia - direction Rome city centre - San Giovanni

After around 1 km the Ippodromo will be on your right

 

For those arriving at Ciampino Airport:

Taxi

There's a fixed price of 30 Euro to/from Ciampino Airport.

Train

The nearest train station is Ciampino Città, a 15 minute journey from Rome Termini. Every 30 minutes a COTRAL/SCHIAFFINI bus leaves, if there isn't much traffic you can get to the airport in 5 minutes. The ticket costs 1 euro and you can buy them on before boarding and also on the bus.

 

Coaches

Terravision coaches serve the airport, it costs 4 euro one way, and 8 euro return from Termini station. You can buy the tickets in Termini station - in Via Marsala no. 29 F/G (you'll need to show your RyanAir ticket), and also at the Terravision office at the airport. The journey lasts 40 minutes, which doesn't include the 45 minutes you sometimes have to wait when travelling from Rome to Ciampino, as the bus won't leave until it's full.

SIT Shuttle has a fixed timetable, and it also costs 4 euro (including luggage), but the buses leave less frequently (especially early morning).

COTRAL/SCHIAFFINI also serve Ciampino airport, but the stop in Rome isn't in Via Marsala, but on the other side of Termini in Via Giolitti. The ticket costs 4.50 euro, and can be bought from on board the bus.

For those arriving at Fiumicino Airport:

udine says 30 euros...this might be around that.

 

Oooh, that's tempting, but not doable at the moment, just spent a load of money on UK gigs, got a couple of bills to pay, and no work at the moment!
