“Great songs result from something need to be said and not because somebody has to say something. Great songs are superior to our egos.”Campino (frontman of “Die Toten Hosen”)
“We always have been influenced by English punk music,” declares front singer CAMPINO who is also a renowned actor who starred together with Dennis Hopper in Wim Wender’s “Palermo Shooting”. “The Jam, The Clash…they all had something to disclose. They’ve been forceful. They’ve not only been standing contra but more importantly pro subjects (such as against racism).”

2018 Yugong Yishan Festival is located at New Great Valley, Yanqing District, 1.5 hours driving distance from Beijing city centre. We are offering two types of ticket packages for you:
There are two bus stations to choose from: North Gate of Worker’s Stadium and Changping Xiguan Roundabout. A. North Gate of Work’s Stadium, right outside of Club Mix, easy to find for people who depart from city centre. B. Changping Xiguan Roundabout, close to festival site and takes only 30mins to the venue. If you live in the north of Beijing, you can save much more time by choosing bus service from this station. Or if you couldn’t buy the Self-drive package but want to drive to somewhere close to our festival, why don’t you drive to Changping and take our shuttle buses from Changping Xiguan Roundabout?
Drive away from the city for one or two days is always a good choice in Spring. We totally understand that and specially reserved spaces for people who would like to drive to our festival. But due to the limit of parking space in the valley, we kindly suggest you to book Self-drive packages ASAP. No matter if you want to come as a 3-person group with a sedan or a 7-person group in a MVP, there is always an option for you. Don't hesitate and get your tickets!
