coming to vättlehallen may 21:st to may 24:th
ENTRANCE FEE 250 SKR at the door, if you
pay in advance it's only 200 SKR. To pay in advance you have to be swedish
(if you're from another country and really eager to pay in advance,
mail us and we'll work something out) and all you have to do is pay 200:-
to our postgiro 37 42 51 - 7 and include name, telephone number
and social security number for each of the people you pay for. Do NOT
forget to save the receipt to show us at the entrance.
HOW TO GET THERE BY CAR Take the E20 towards Göteborg or Stockholm
depending on where you start. When you reach Kastenhofsmotet, leave the
highway and follow the signs saying 'Stenkullen'. Having arrived at the
center of Stenkullen, turn left into the street called Gråbovägen.
After about 300 metres you have Vättlehallen - the party place - on
your right hand.
HOW TO GET THERE BY TRAIN, BOAT OR PLANE When travelling using any
of these vehicles you should get to Göteborg as a start. If you are
one of those rich chaps or maybe a bit lazy, the right thing for you to
.do is to call for a cab and make the driver follow the description above.
The other alternative is to locate Centralstation, the main ( and only)
railway station of Göteborg and catch the local train towards Alingsås.
Get off at Stenkullen, the first stop after Lerum. Proceed straight forward
on foot about 250 meters and you face Vättlehallen, the party place.
There will be signs in the surroundins showing the way to the partyplace,
Pit's almost impossible not finding Icing '98! If you still do, just ask
some nicelooking guy for 'Vättlehallen'.
The makers of this faboulous invitation-intro are:
J,Chip / PowerLine, code and design
HORAZiNE^Plastique Design, all graphics and original design
Wasp / PowerLine, the fabolous tune
Now you go visit Icing '98!
