Location & Hotel

Location 

The 2022 Augsburg Balboa Festival is hosted by Hep Cat Club, our studio is located at Viktoriastraße 3B, 86150 Augsburg, Germany.

The entrance is directly at track 1 of the Augsburg central train station. Here is how to find the entrance: Imagine you step out of a train on track 1., then you go to the left to the next building (Helio Center). The door at the corner ist the entrance, it’s just 3 meters away from the roof of the train station building at track 1. You also see our Hep Cat Club logo there, we are located on the first floor.

You can find a plan on our dance school website >


City-Zone

Have you heard about the City Zone Augsburg? Within the city center you can use all busses and trains for FREE! Amazing, huh? Please check the local Covid policies and regulations, restrictions may apply, currently FFP2 masks are mandatory (as of January 15th).

Some nice places to visit in Augsburg:

There are many nice places in Augsburg, but often they are a bit hidden, especially when you start at the main train station. Don’t miss to walk through the „Lechviertel - untere Altstadt“. Maybe it’s also interesting to visit the „Fuggerei“.

Please check the opening hours, some of them are closed on Sundays or close early!

Train

The best way to reach us is by train. The Main Station is directly located at the Hep Cat Club. We recommend to come to our festival by train in care of this planet we all love. And just to remind you, it's the only planet where we can swing and dance. You can buy your train tickets to Augsburg at the Deutsche Bahn

Car

If you are coming by car, we would recommend you to do carsharing. Parking is possible at the garage of Helio. Free Parking is possible at the Plärrer. From there you can walk to the Hep Cat Club within 20minutes or take the tram (14 minutes).

Hotels

There are many hotels nearby, for example the Ibis Hotel Hauptbahnhof or the InterCity Hotel (rugs), both at the central station and located in walking distance from the event location (3-5 minutes). Our students told us that they loved the Hotel Viktoria right across the street from our dance studio as well. 

Hostels

Our students also recommended the HostelHotelHome nearby. It’s a very nice and much cheaper option. Especially the breakfast should be amazing there! Located in the city center, around 5-10 minutes walking distance. 


Food & Drinks

We will have a self-service bar for coffee, snacks, water and fruits. Since the studio is conveniently located at Augsburg main train station and very close to downtown, it is only a short walk to go for lunch or dinner after classes or grab something to eat on the way to the hotel.
