    Will be getting mine straight after Christmas. It will be out of the way so then I can buy other things like a tent that works.

    The introduced the e-ticket thing last year, basically they say anyone outside Belgium/NL has to order e-tickets (cuts down on tickets getting lost in the post)

    But someone just went and ordered physical tickets and still got them shipped.

    E-tickets are grand though, much easier and nothing to worry about.

    Not to impressed with the ticket price increases, its around e200 now including all service charges for a 4 day combi with camping.

    yay hi there, that somebody was me, and it worked. and guess what, i once again managed to save the link for hard tickets before they took it of the homepage and i ordered them again ^^ if anyone needs, just tell me ;)

    the reason i did this last year was because they wouldn't let me on camping A1 when i ordered e-tickets, that's not the case anymore this year. but i ordered hard tickets anyways because i like having a 'real' ticket in my hands ;)

    This'll be my third Rock Werchter. Each time was brilliant fun.

    Not that is gonne change us going, with Green Day, Muse and Pearl Jam, looks like its gonna be a deadly few days.

    Beer isnt served in pints, crappy 200mls glasses so its actually very expensive boozing there.

    But easy to get in with a camel pack or the like...

    Food is lovely there great quality, lovely mussels available right outside the main gate. Really nice to have a bucket of mussels smoke and nice
    white wine before entering the gig i find....

    Beers are small but we bought beakers and filled them with whiskey and coke every day and got them in no bother.

    Didn't find the food great, sausages in buns for 4 days.

    That was a heatwave. It dropped off to about 30 degrees but still very nice. It was similar the year before also.

    Agreed 40 is a tad hot, but after spending 8 hours in horizontal rain at oxegen last year, I'd take heatstroke any day ;)

    Nice little rain shower on the last day was welcomed:D

    My tent disagrees :). Handy that we had a backup as the people beside us abandoned their tent to go home on the Sunday morning. WIN.

    You could buy one in Leuven I suppose. I have not seen any tents for sale at the campsites.

    Thanks, might just bring one so just to be on the safe side! Got my ticket yesterday so all set now. :D:D Got an e ticket. The camping ticket with it did not specify which campsite you have to use, it just said they will be on a first come first served basis.
