When & how it works

When: Two consecutive weekends (Friday to Sunday) in mid- to late July. Dates are announced the year before.

Tickets: Ticketed (pre-register) — Tickets go on sale after a free mandatory pre-registration and sell out quickly. Global Journey packages bundle flights, transport and accommodation and are the simplest way for international visitors. Buy only through the official channels.

What it is

An elaborately themed EDM festival with fairytale stages across two weekends near Brussels, drawing fans from every country.

How to get started

  1. Create an account and complete the free pre-registration before the sale — you can't buy without it.
  2. Decide weekend and ticket type (day, full, or a Global Journey travel package).
  3. Log in at the exact sale time; tickets sell out fast, so have your group registered too.

Tickets & where to buy

Tickets go on sale after a free mandatory pre-registration and sell out quickly. Global Journey packages bundle flights, transport and accommodation and are the simplest way for international visitors. Buy only through the official channels.

Where to stay
DreamVille camping on-site is the classic choice; Brussels and Antwerp are nearby with train links.
First-timer tips
The Global Journey package removes most of the logistics headache for overseas visitors.
Watch out
Everything sells out fast — pre-register the whole group ahead of the on-sale.
Dates move — check before you book

Several of these festivals are tied to Easter or a lunar calendar, so the exact dates shift each year. Confirm the current year's dates and ticket on-sale times from the official source before you book flights.
