German Football Festival:
April 02 - April 06, 2026
Arrival to the tournament
How to get to Dresden
The German Football Festival takes place in Dresden, the capital of Saxony. The city is located less than 40 km from the Czech border, just under 200 km south of Berlin, and 150 km north of Prague, the Czech capital. This means that the easiest and fastest way to get there from Germany, the Czech Republic, Poland, and Austria is usually by train, car, or bus.
However, Dresden Airport is also located just outside of Dresden, so getting there from more distant cities is not that difficult.
By public transport you can then quickly get to Sportpark Ostra - this is where the whole tournament will take place!
Arrival...
- ... comfortably by train to the main station
- ... by bus (we can help you with the booking) or car.
- ... by plane (by public transport approx. 45 minutes to the sports facility).
