Eurovision 2024: Skånetrafiken releases unique tickets adapted for the Eurovision week!
Skånetrafiken, the regional public transport carrier of the region of Skåne – where Malmö is located, is developing two new tickets that are valid when the Eurovision Song Contest will be held in the region!
In the first week of May, thousands of visitors are expected to visit the region Skåne. Skånetrafiken has decided to make it easy for everyone to choose to travel by train and bus and is therefore producing two adapted tickets for the Eurovision week. Both tickets are valid for eight days, 5-12 May. One is valid for the whole of Skåne and the other for over the Öresund Bridge, which connects the city of Malmö with the city of Copenhagen in Denmark, and in the whole of Skåne.
The tickets can of course be bought regardless of whether you are going to see Eurovision or not.
This is how the tickets work:
- Eurovision Skåne: Travel unlimited within Skåne for eight days for only 350 SEK (approx. 31 Euros).
- Eurovision Skåne/Copenhagen: Travel to and from Copenhagen with the Öresund train and throughout Skåne for eight days for only SEK 700 (approx. 61 Euros).
Tickets can be purchased from April 15 to May 12 via the app which can be downloaded for Android or iOS devices via Google Play or Appstore respectively!
Update 16:57 CET:
Pernilla Lyberg, Sales and Marketing Manager at Skånetrafiken, says in a press release:
“We want to make it possible for as many people as possible to travel by bus and train. We will strengthen all traffic and have developed two really advantageous tickets.”
Changes to train services during the Eurovision week:
• Extra trains will go to Ystad and Trelleborg during the evenings.
• Some trains that would normally have Lund as their final station will continue to Hässleholm.
• Extra train to Helsingborg in the evening.
• Extra train to Copenhagen on Thursday, May 9th, when Denmark participates in the semi-finals.
Skånetrafiken writes that they also plan to increase the number of buses during the week and have customer hosts on site around Malmö. The customer center at Malmö Central Station will also extend its opening hours during the week.
In addition, skanetrafiken.se will be partially translated into English.
