Thomas is right with the roaming stuff.

Anyway, in Germany there are multiple cheap solutions which do not
require any of the precious time of the organizers: The big
discounters like ALDI and Lidl have their branded mobile services;
SIM-Cards can be bought for roughly 10EUR with enough minutes and data
to last for a week light usage (email, navigation).

Quite sure also Penny and Rewe and most drogeries have those cards; at
least one of those shops will be in crawling distance from the venue.
