Hello togehter, does anybody know if there is a cooking facility (water kettles etc.) at the HIVE Resort like it is at the 'normal' HIVE?

 

Thanks :-)

Comfort zones

The Hive aims for quality and  comfort. That is reflected in more showers, more toilets and more water taps for campers. These facilities will be located in various comfort zones spread across the campground. A shower costs 1.5 Coin at The Hive, and is free of charge at The Hive Resort and The Hive My Space. Toilets are always free of charge and accessible 24 hours a day.

There is a small bar with a terrace. Campers can also cook/heat up their own food in the cooking area, which will have microwave ovens and boiling water.

 

The comfort zones are open on Wednesday from 6 pm to 10 pm. On Thursday to Sunday from 8 am to 6 pm, and on Monday from 7.30 am to 11 am.

 

This is for the Hive, on their website 

 

I stayed on the Hive Resort 2 years ago and wasn't happy as they didn't have any cooking facilities. We got friends who were staying at the MySpace to bring us some hot water over.

Thank you for your answer.

Would really suck to have not even hot water ...

Anybody here who stayed at the Hive Resort last year maybe there were some changes...

Judging by Graspop that happened like 50km from Werchter and how much the forecast was changing each day I'd say we won't know until like Tuesday or Wednesday

Booked a tour of Stella Artois factory on the Sunday from 1300-1500. Should be suitable woozy for Idles.

Anyone know if it´s possible to watch the Euro games in or around the festival area (except the Hive resort)?

 

There´s even a chance Belgium might play the quarter finale Friday or Saturday.

I think they played Belgium vs Brazil at that Jupiler Towers area or however it's called, right from the main stage with all the food but it was slightly different layout back then. I don't remember seeing non Belgium games played at the festival ever

Luxembourg cancelled now, I think they are gone.  It might not be Perry Farrell who is ill, but he was certainly struggling with his voice when I saw them in Glasgow a few weeks ago.

[Scarnic]

Have a good journey everyone. Time to party.

That concert is pulled also . I will be shocked if they play tomorrow 😞 

[gingerevans84]

In Brussels for a night out before the madness starts tomorrow. Hope you all have an excellent festival. See you at the front for Hives, Nothing But Thieves and Avril.

 

Till Monday..

[gingerevans84]

Anyone coming via Aarschot, all trains are massively delayed and/or cancelled. Already 2 hours from Brussels.

Enjoying streams, looks like a great atmosphere. Tom Morello did not need to sing Killing in the name, audience sang it all the way

Saw him at Graspop last year with pretty much the same setlist (except he brought Slash and not the dude from Maneskin as a guest) and it was so much better this time. Was perfectly fine last year but this was amazing. It seemed to me Tom Morello was in such a great mood from the start

Only saw Nothing Matters but what a huge crowd for The Last Dinner Party!

Havent been to Werchter since 2018. It feels… overcrowded, doesn’t it?

 

I dont remember having to wait 10-15 minutes to go from The Barn to the Main at 3 in the afternoon.
