Liseberg 2016 - CoasterCrazy Meet


SIGN-UP CLOSED


Hej!

I'll make this short and sweet. Our small group of UK CC Meet regulars are making our way to Liseberg for a meet later this year. HELIX calls and we just couldn't say no! Also, as a bonus, courtesy of the delightful, wonderful Andreas Andersen (CEO of Liseberg) we have arranged for some exclusive perks as part of the meet. Blah blah blah, yada yada yada.

The bottom line of this, is that we are opening this meet up to YOU, members of CoasterCrazy! :)

Getting really rather excited for this!

This is an amazing opportunity, if you are able to come along, even if you can only come for one of the days, please do!

Hats off to Jammy for sorting us with free entry and ERT/passes. And kudos to Andreas for being so awesome and welcoming!

Is this part of the Euro Zone? I might be able to do this as a part of a larger trip provided I can fly in somewhere cheap and rent a car.

No, whilst Sweden is part of the EU it uses its own currency (Krona).

The last (and only) time I went to Liseberg was just a few months before Helix was announced. So maybe I'll come too...
