Rock Werchter 2014

[fillou]

No problem for Werchter. Big problem voor Pukkelpop, normally.

hey mates, I've got a question

last time I went to RW in 2012 my friends and I went on wednesday to the decatlón of brussels to buy all our stuff

this year we bring our own tent from Spain, but have to buy something to sleep in, we want to aboid going to decatlón in brussels again so...do you think this sportdirect store you say in Leuven won't be run out of stock with all that campers for the festival in the town...

I don't know, I'm just afraid of ending up sleeping on the floor, you know...

Don't think you'll have to worry about this. There also is an AS Adventure in the centre of Leuven, and the bigger supermarkets might also have some basic camping stuff in stock.

Doesn't the shop at the entrance of the A campings have some camping stuff as well? (never been there)

this new "north west walls" thing seems like it could be a good way to pass the time when there is nothing good on

[Wazasaw]

I never had an id-check and read nothing about them doing that this year. So I don't think you'll be banned with a ticket without your name on it.

Unlike Pukkelpop in Belgium where your identity is strictly checked and where you don't get in if you can't prove it's your name on the ticket.

Looking up this sportsdirect store in Leuven for location, it seems like it is in Brussels and not in Leuven. It is in the south-east of brussels, what would roughly gauge as 20-25 minutes away. Is that right?

There's one in the center of Leuven too, in the Diestsestraat (somewhere halfway).

Do you think, there's still hope to get tickets from waiting list?

I registered on February. Holidays reserved, airplane booked...

Coming over from the UK for the festival. Booked up late so staying in Brussels near the North Station. Is it easy travel to and from the festival from here? Only got tickets for the Friday but still looking for the other days. Are tickets easy to pick up in and around the days of the festival? Im on the waiting list for each day but kind of gave up hope with that!

im coming from london with the eurostar train to brussels midi What do i do next? I will arrive at 10:07 3 july to brussles midi station. The free train that comes with the festival ticket is only from luvan to the festival?

So i need to buy a ticket from brussels midi to luvan and from there ill have the free luvan to the festival?

London eurostar - brussels midi - luvan - festival.

Its the 10.6 and i dont see an option at The SNCB site...

Has Someone orderd tickets from there yet?

Ok. Thank you...

My eurostar train ticket says that the stop in brussels is "brussles midi". Is there a train to leuven from the same place (brussles midi) or i need to go to somewhere else?

Hi, just trying to order my train from brussels to leuven but cannot see the option to order them on the E-ticket website. How do you do this or where do you go for it?

EDIT: Found out how now, if you're on the site to order tickets(the sncb one) just go to order standard train tickets from the site and there will be an option where it says standard to change that to festival and then select rock werchter. Once this has been done follow the information on the screen and it will eventually ask you for your sncb code.

Cheers foolee, I was thinking the same!!

[e2p2]

Why do we need to order a train ticket from Brussels to Leuven in advance? As far as I remember there was no problem to use that Werchter train ticket at the station.

[Mushy25]

Booked the tickets last night. Like how you don't have to specify a time, can just rock up and head on. Gonna be in Leuven at midday on the Wednesday Only a solid 11 hours after my bus leaves Cork here in Ireland.

I assume its a logistical thing for wanting people to pre-book tickets for the train?

What are searches like on the way into the arena? I'd like to sneak in a little vodka/wine each day to keep down beer cost. I've never had any bother at UK festivals, however at Open'er it was impossible with military style searches going in! And is there a supermarket close by to buy beer from?

Cheers.

From the Eurostar is is Brussels Zuid to Leuven we take? I can't find an option of Brussels Midi
