Free use of public transport

As in previous years, LINZ AG the Linz transport company is once again providing a fantastic service for the festival: all performers who can "identify" themselves as such by showing their Pflasterspektakel badge can use the trams and buses free of charge (except the Pöstlingberg railway). The badge can be picked up by every performer in the festival office and must be shown to ticket inspectors on demand.
