Birmingham to Hamburg – Travelling for Boxing
by admin on 29/06/11 at 12:57 pm
As the dates draw nearer, people from all over the world are looking forward to witnessing the historic event. Organizers anticipate that boxing lovers will come into the, Imtech Arena, located in Hamburg, Germany on the 2 July this year, using different means and modes of transport to take part in this great event.
Birmingham is a large city in the United Kingdom from where thousands of boxing lovers will come from. The distance between Birmingham and Hamburg is approximately 500 miles. For those willing to travel by road, it will take you 16 hours to reach Hamburg if you will be driving at a speed of 40 mph. The mathematics will seem slightly off; this is because the driving distance is 647 miles. For those willing to take a flight, an airplane from any of the airlines will get you there in 1.6 hours, inclusive of the thirty minutes take-off and landing times.
Though ticket prices vary depending on the dates and seasons, the average amount you are likely to pay for a one-way ticket is $124. For those crossing the border using their own vehicles, enter Germany through Netherlands using the A67 and then take the A40. Exit the road at 14-Kreuz Kaiser Berg and enter the A3 towards Hannover, keep left at the fork, and then follow signs to DU-Kaiser berg. Keep right at the fork, having in mind that it is important to follow the traffic signs on the A3. Branch off to the A2 and, take exit 8 to merge A43. Take the exit 43-Buchhoizler and keep right to take Lurup, merge with Schnackenburgallee then turn left into Syvesterallee where you expect to find Imtech Arena, the place where the fight will be. However, if something goes wrong, u miss the directions and arrive to late in Hamburg, you can always stop and watch Klitschko vs Haye live streaming from your cell phone or computer! Would be more fun if you could reach the Imtech Arena in time though!
