The Kronach Shooting Festival, scheduled from 14th to 24th August 2025, promises an exciting experience for all. To help you get around during this event, here's a guide to the public transport options available.
For those planning to attend the festival, the district of Kronach provides a special bus service, the Shooting Festival Express. This service runs alongside the regular public transport services in the district. Tickets for the Shooting Festival Express can be purchased directly on the buses, and a day ticket costs 6 euros. Children under 12 years of age travel free of charge when accompanied by an adult family member.
However, it's important to note that construction sites may cause short-term changes in the bus service during the festival. For the most accurate and up-to-date schedule, it's recommended to check the district's website at https://www.landkreis-kronach.de. The schedules for the Shooting Festival Express can also be downloaded from this site at https://www.landkreis-kronach.de/wirtschaft-und-verkehr/oeffentlicher-nahverkehr/freischiessenexpress/.
In the city of Kronach, within the Citybus service area, the ticket costs 3 euros.
Traveling by train is another alternative during the Kronach Shooting Festival. The Germany Ticket can be used for regular train services during the festival, but it's essential to note that it is not valid for the Shooting Festival Express. No specific information is provided about the cost of train travel during the festival.
For those who prefer VGN tickets, such as the 365-euro ticket, they can be used for regular train services, but they are not valid for the Shooting Festival Express either. VGN tickets are available online or at DB ticket machines.
It's also worth mentioning that the mobility centre has advised for understanding about potential short-term schedule changes due to construction sites on the Shooting Festival Express. For other regular train services, construction sites may affect the bus service, but no specific information is provided about the train service.
As always, it's a good idea to check the district's website for the latest schedules and any potential changes due to construction sites or other unforeseen circumstances. For the most accurate and up-to-date information, it's recommended to check official Kronach city transport websites, local event pages, or contact Kronach public transit authorities directly as the event date approaches. They typically update shuttle and express bus timetables closer to the event start.
