I'm still not sure which hotel to book, seems a bit too late isn't it.
Previously we are planning to go with 4 people from Indonesia, but now for some reason it will be only me alone, so today I have to cancel the place for 4 people already. and have to look elsewhere.
Maybe anyone have an extra spot in a room to share? it will be great. Thanks, can't wait to see you all there. Btw I will be there from Wednesday, 7th around 4pm and btw the German beer idea sounds good for me

Okay. The drinking age in Germany is 16.

I am not entirely sure, but I guess 16 for beer and wine, 18 for strong drinks (above 10% alcohol). 16 for cigarettes, 18 for "strong cigarettes" .

Driving a car is 18 though and you should really check if your drivers license will be valid!

Strong drinks are not defined by >10% alcohol (wine for example can have 14), but if it's destilled or not

yes, in Germany and Austria, it's 16 for beer and wine.
driving a car doesn't have to be 18, you can do it with 17 also ^^ [what I'm doing atm]

 

[Kidstardust]

yeah but with a person who has a driving license. So american boys and girls under 18: dont drive in germany because it is illegal...

[Markus Pirzer]

I'll stay at the Private Gästewohnung Nowak (http://www.deutsche-pensionen.de/pension-duesseldorf/40597-private-gaestewohnung-nowak.html).
I booked very early and searched for a hotel near the competition. To that time I didn't know that the party would be at the youth hostel. Of course I will be at the party on Saturday, although I have a few kilometers to travel back.
