Within Hamburg, your concert tickets will be valid for public transport (both ways). Take the S3 or S21 to Stellingen - HSH Nordbank Arena / Color Line Arena

At Stellingen, there will be a shuttle service to the venue.

The cheapest way for you will be to buy a laender ticket for Niedersachsen (the province that encompasses the states of Bremen and Hamburg. The ticket is also valid for the city transportation in both places. Buy a normal one for 28 euro (valid for five people) and a single-version one for the sixth person (20 euro). These tickets are valid for the entire day (from 9am in the morning until 3am the next morning) for the regional Metronom trains. In case you need to travel back on the ICE train (the last regional train apparently leaves around 22:30), the onward travel to Bremen is still cheaper on these regional tickets.

wow, thanks Venelin that is just the info i was looking for.One more thing and that is what time do the trains leave after the concert or will we be stuck in Hamburg until the next day?

Here you can find the information you need. You can also directly plug in the address of the concert venue and the address in Bremen where you want to go. In any case, the last regional train from Hamburg Hbf to Bremen leaves at 23:15.

Venelin, yours answers are 100% thanks man for helping a bunch of Norwegians.
One last question, if say the concert finishes at 22:00 will this give us time to catch the 23:15 train back to bremen ?

DB timetable
http://reiseauskunft.bahn.de/bin/query.exe/en
From: Hamburg-Stellingen
To: Bremen

Last connection from Hamburg-Stellingen to Bremen departs at 22:50.
Under normal circumstances no problem at all. But at the end of a concert this may be too tight. If many visitors use this S-Bahn station it will need a few trains to get them away from Stellingen.
Safer would be to stay overnight in Hamburg.

Sorry but i thought the last train from Hamburg to Bremen was at 23:15.I must have read the timetable wrongly,i`ll check again.
What about buses between Hamburg and Bremen? do they run often ?

Hamburg-Stellingen dep 22:50
Hamburg Hbf dep 23:15

That's the same "last connection".

There are buses from Hamburg ZOB (central bus station close to Hamburg Hbf) to Bremen Airport.

You could explore the (famous) Hamburg nightlife and use the bus at 03:30 to Bremen. These buses are not covered by the Lower Saxony Ticket. Thus bus will be in the end more expensive.
