Traveling in the greater Nuremberg area (VGN)

Effective from 4 hours prior to the event until the end of operation hours, most tickets can also be used for local public transport (including German Railway, second class, supplement-free trains, single return trip) in the entire VGN-Area (linked transport system for the Greater Nuremberg area). If you would like to use this function, it is necessary to indicate the first and last name of each traveller during the Print@Home ordering process. Without this information, the Print@Home tickets do not function as transport tickets. Once the reservation process has been completed, no further changes are possible due to technical reasons.
