So as a European festival virgin, i plan on loosing it at Tomorrowland 2012. Looks literally insane and would be the perfect place to start! However, getting there might be an issue, Coming from the North area of the UK and somehow looking to get over there relatively cheaply...

Has anyone ever been before? whats the best options of travel to get over? some saying fly or get ferry from hull to rotterdam then possible coach or train or something?

Any help much appreciated

Fly to Antwerp and get public transport from there, the Bus stop is right outside the airport then you can get a train to Boom (or even a cab, it's really close to Antwerp)

We flew to Antwerp from Manchester (for Pukkelpop) less than £100 the last two years, booked with Air France.

just found that National Express do a thing called 'euroline' and its specifically for the festival but they do a coach from London to Antwerp return i think. Looks pretty decent and cheap

This looks insane, will be there.

Interested to know your plans mate, I'm looking at heading up to!

[Smally]

No idea, the only infomation I have managed to find it the obvious. Ticket details relased 1ST Febuary,  Presale starts 7TH April.

The nearest airport is Antwerp and is about 13KM from Boom, where the festival is held. So I can't imagine it costing too much in a cab? Eurostar looks pointless.

Looking into flights to Antwerp and the cheapest I'm getting is £200 from London? Scrap that idea.



EDIT: Looking at flying into Brussles on Wednesday from Manchester (Flybe). Stopping in Brussles for a day then making our way to the site, train to Antwerp then a cab. Getting back to Brussles then catching a train to Amsterdam, stopping there until Friday then catching an Easyjet flight home.

Been looking at this since like september! been looking at flights, the flights to Antwerp are like 200+ and the flights the brussels are around 130+ but its abit further away, me and my mates wer thinking of flying to brussels from either manchester/liverpool/leeds on the thursday and then after the festival going to amsterdam for a day and possibly staying over then flights back on the monday night or tuesday, waiting for the ticket info to come out to start pricing things up!

Me and my boyfriend were planning on taking the car over for this.  We're travelling from Leeds area (UK) and I've been looking but I'm not sure how it goes with ferries and such.  Does anyone have any ideas where would be best/cheapest/any general info to go from in UK and where the ferry ports are on the other side?

Also, if anyone has been before - do you happen to know, when it comes to booking the accomodation with the jaccuzi etc, do you pay per person for this accomodation or do you book one and you both stay in the same appartment?

Thanks!

The jacuzzi says, "Only access to DreamVille - 1 ticket for 2 persons" Its 640 euros + 2 festival tickets = 984 euros.

Looking at 207 euros basic cost for this. "The Worldwide ticket sale starts on Saturday April 7, 2012 at 11h00."

Also you're allowed to bring your own booze/food so long as its not in glass, fantastic!

[carriedekoffins]

Ok thanks - can I ask, which website you're looking at for all this information as I can't find that anywhere!  Can you copy and paste a link for me?

Thanks!

Think I'm going to be heading to this, contemplating just getting a bus there though. Line up is looking amazing already with so much to go. Cafe D'Anvers!
