HELP REQUIRED
So as I have said before I am not an expert on Leipzig or WGT (although I do have a very good memory). So have I got something wrong,
do you have more details/information about something? Or do you simply have a different point of view...
I would like more info on travel to Germany/Leipzig from countries other than the UK, especially from the USA, Australia and South
Africa...send me an email (as long as you care to write and I will enter the details and give you full credit).
Below you will find the names (in no order) of those who have sent me information or have corrected my mistakes (if you want me to put
your picture up then feel free to send it to me as a Jpeg). Thank you.

WHY THE WEBSITE?
I created this website to help first timers get to the worlds biggest and best Gothic Festival and to expand the knowledge of those that
have been to find some of the quieter less known corners of the festival. I suppose I found it rather daunting when I first went as there is
very little information in English on the Internet that can help you. If you have been before you will know what I mean, with the various
venues scattered around the city its very easy to miss whole sections of the festival.
In 2002 I finally got around to going to my first Wave Gotik Treffen (WGT), having previously only been to various UK based festivals. I
didn't know what to expect, except for the knowledge that there were 150 bands playing. I loved every minute of the festival, from the
shopping hall to the bands playing, from the multi-national make up of the crowd to the city and all that has to offer. I have been every
year since, and it really is the highlight of my year. I started a small Yahoo Group to help other English speaking Goths get to Leipzig,
and as the group has grown its become obvious that people want more information on how to get to Leipzig and what to expect when
they get there. I initially sat down and wrote a 20 page guide to WGT, however there was still more information to add. The Guide has
evolved to become this website. Feel free to email me, with suggested ideas, a review, or to join the yahoo group.
In 2010 I started a supporting Facebook page to make announcements on...you can find it here
I don’t profess to be an expert on the festival, nor do I have any connections with the organisers (although I am a moderator on the
official WGT website forum), the content of this website is purely my own opinion of what I have seen and experienced, although I hope
many of you will send me additional information. See you in Leipzig.
