Two nights of hard rock in the Uber Arena: Guns N’ Roses bring rock history to Berlin. The US band will play two concerts in Germany on June 23rd and 25th. All information about directions, ticket prices and potential setlist can be found here.

The rock legends were named to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2021. This honor gave the golden sales figures an official title. Their debut album “Appetite for Destruction” has sold over 30 million copies, making it one of the most successful albums of all time. The band, which was founded in Los Angeles in 1985, is now making the German capital happy with its visit.

Directions

The Uber Arena recommends traveling by public transport as there are limited parking options around the event location. If you still come by car, you can follow the signs from the city center to Friedrichshain and Uber Platz. The address for navigation devices is Mildred-Harnack-Straße, 10243 Berlin. It’s worth planning enough time buffer in case Berlin traffic delays your arrival. Parking is available in the “Arena” car park and the East Side Mall car park – both on Helen-Ernst-Straße – as well as in the “Plaza” car park at Uber Platz.

We recommend traveling by public transport. The Warschauer Straße train station is particularly suitable, which is about five minutes away from the concert location and offers numerous connections: the S-Bahn lines S3, S5, S7, S9 and S75 run here, as do the U1 and U3. The bus lines 300 and 347, the night bus N1 and the tram lines M10 and M13 also stop at the stop.

Another option is to travel via Ostbahnhof, from which the Uber Arena is around twelve minutes away. The Ostbahnhof is served by the S-Bahn lines S3, S5, S7 and S9, and several regional and long-distance trains also stop here. Bus routes 140, 142, 147, 240, 248 and 347 as well as the night bus N40 go to Ostbahnhof.

Since both concerts take place during the week, the last regular trains run until around 12:30 a.m. – after that only the night buses run.

Tickets

The concerts are not sold out yet. Tickets for the concert on Tuesday are available from 115 euros. On Thursday the cheapest tickets are 123 euros. There are also resale offers in many categories on Ticketmaster and FanSale.

Setlist and times

Admission to the Uber Arena opens at 5 p.m., the concert is scheduled to start at 6:30 p.m. The support act will be Mammoth, an American band that has already been nominated for a Grammy with their song “Distance”.

At their previous European concerts, Guns N’ Roses played a setlist that remained largely consistent, but rotated the order slightly and swapped individual songs and cover versions. This creates a varied rhythm between the individual tour stops. What the two Berlin shows have in store still remains to be seen. The full setlist from Dublin from June 10th serves as a comparison:

  • Bad obsession
  • It’s So Easy
