Rock Werchter 2012

[august1]

looks like its expanding to 3, possibly 4 stages next year and the year after a new venue and 4 stages

I liked the small site, refreshing break from somewhere like Glasto.

Record sales this year if it aint broke...

YEAHS love how compact werchter is aswel! There supposed to be re-designing the site to get more stages in but no official word on it.

May go back this year but depends in bjork getting announced and other headliners! Otherwise it's one of sziget/beni/primavera.

Wouldn't bet against Foo Fighters playing that Saturday slot.

Booked last year! Althogh sadly didn't play.

[karelaanzee]

Is it sure they'll do festivals next year.

If yes, they'll be there indeed.

I'm hoping for Radiohead, Kanye West, Kasabian.

[gazza_20]

thats the thing they said theyll go back there, under normal circumstances id say theyd be nailed on for rw

[thetime]

ah then yes, if they had done puckelpop, as you say, rw is nailed on

although rock werchter stopping as a 2 stage fest this year.

going to my first Rock Werchter next year as Glasto isn't on and was wondering where's the best place to buy the tickets from and how quickly will they sell?

[karelaanzee]

Good choice! Did both Glastonbury and Werchter last year and had two times a great time!

Tickets can only be bought from the official site.

Last year, Saturday and Friday tickets sold out in january/february but that was because of the very popular headliners (Coldplay and Arctic Monkeys).

The weekend and other day tickets sold out in the week before the festival.

That was later than other years, when weekend tickets sold out in march but they increased the capacity with 3,000 people last year...

The first day, the site to buy tickets wil work slowly but it will not sell out in the first months.

If they have very popular headliners (Metallica, RHCP, Bruce Springsteen), tickets for those day will sell out pretty fast.

But normally, you'll have time enough to buy yours.

[karelaanzee]

if they can get tallica, rhcp, springsteen and foos...will sell out pretty quick I imagine.

[thetime]

My guess is it'll be something like this:

Thursday: Rage Against The Machine - Metallica - Justice

Friday: dEUS - Foo Fighters

Saturday: Kasabian - Björk - Bruce Springsteen

Sunday: Snow Patrol - Red Hot Chili Peppers - 2manydj's

That indeed will be a quick sell out.
