ARE YOU COMING TO WATCH BIATHLON IN NMNM? THEN READ THE FOLLOWING LINES CAREFULLY!
Revision is the mother of wisdom, and so let us have look together at what you should not forget if you are planning to visit round 3 of 2018/2019 Biathlon World Cup that takes place in the Vysočina Aréna.
What to take with you and what is better to leave at home?
- Warm clothes – from our own and thousands of fans’ experience, we can give you the following advice: “the more, the better”! If you are too warm, you can always take a layer or two off, or you can have it in a small bag to put on.
- Leave at home all items that could be considered dangerous, by which we mean not only (even pocket) knives and other weapons, but also any bars of length exceeding 1 meter, i.e. including classic and folding umbrellas. Take a raincoat instead of an umbrella!
- Do not take with you: any alcoholic drinks, pets, children’s prams (!), pyrotechnics, folding chairs, skis etc.
- You can have non-alcoholic drinks with you (of max. volume 0.5 litres), including metal vacuum flasks (max. volume of 1 litre).
When to Arrive?
The most important thing must be emphasized in the very beginning: arrive ahead of time, arrive soon enough. Why is that? For your convenience. The Vysočina Arena has got everything you need: refreshment, souvenirs, toilets and many more. You will thus have all you need to take in and enjoy the atmosphere of the World Cup and find good spots either on the stands or along the track.
