Second bad news: cost per day - around 65 zlotys. Locations of the buffer parkings: http://www.zdm.poznan.pl/parking_zone.php?site=parkingi

Good (?) news is that my intervention forced local authorities to consider the possibilty of parking on regular streets. Decision will be made in the first half of February.

Jacqal, i will be travelling in a smaller size campervan, will there be parks setup for just campervans with electricity in the area ?

I will let You know as soon as I find out

Does anyone know how long it roughly takes in a train to go from Rzeszów to Poznan?

We also have a campervan for a week which is about ¢366 each for the week.

Agreed in Poznan things are looking pricey unless you have enough people to spilt the costs with. There are plenty of options outside of the main host cities however, and loads of fans also doing that. May mean a bit of travel game day but the trains don't look that expensive so it can be done...just need to scour the internet and keep the head up.

Valderz do you have a name for that 5 euro campsite ?

Folks this site may help with finding the lowest priced hotel accommodation either in Poland or along the route. Over thirty sites are searched and the difference in prices for the same room type depending on who you book with can be seen. Www.travels.ie mods feel free to delete but it's aimed at fans not wanting the tent option.

Unfortunately You have to take a train either to Krakow (and than to Poznan) or to Wroclaw (and than to Poznan). By car it is only 530 km, but using train will be much more tiresome.

Hi!
I have a small apartament to rent on Euro 2012. It's not exacly in Poznań, but it is a village close to stadium and to the aiport. Are you interesting?
I have your mail, because you sent a email to DS Jowita, where's my mother working.
Greetings

He seems to be very cheap at €30 per person per night (3 of us in one room). The place is in Skorzewo outside Poznan about 7km from the stadium. I am seriously considering it but I wonder how much a taxi would cost after a night out in Poznan.

I got sorted with this guy for the apartment for three nights for €260. My polish friend at work rang him to sound him out. The guy then emailed me the address of the place along with photos of the apartment. It all looks grand. I transferred 30% deposit to his account and will pay the rest when I get there.

It just goes to prove that if you send loads of emails you will eventually find somewhere that isn't trying to rip you off.

If anyone is still looking for accommodation By The Way hostel still has some availability. They emailed me saying they had beds in the 10 room dorms.
