mike86 Posted February 14, 2018 Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 Does anyone have an idea of the drinks prices? I'm obviously not going to have the supplies that id have at an english festival. Will a day of drinking break the bank? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foolee Posted February 14, 2018 Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 Do you know if there's anywhere I can get a full weekend ticket? As I can see day tickets and 2 day tickets but not the full 3 days anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sign up to ticket alerts on the ticketswap app. I've found it quite easy to pickup tickets for other sold out festivals closer to the date. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't want to walk 5-7 km around the freeway I advise you to leave at the last song of the headliner of leave at last. They close the "fast" exit to the train station so you have to walk a long route to take the train or cab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Day Posted February 15, 2018 Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 We're staying in Torre De Belem. Anyone know how far that is from the site and how long it would take to walk after the festival. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friends of ours stayed at Palacio de Governador, which is opposite the Torre. Great hotel, had a swim there everyday and reception called us taxis back into the city centre (where we were staying) every morning.

Really looking forward to it. Been to RW last 3 years and needed a change and NOS looked perfect when we saw the National and QOTSA announced. Became totally perfect when Pearl Jam got announced. Also noticed Stone Sour are playing in Lisbon on the Weds and so are the Scorpions, so might get a gig in the night before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

themaddiefox Posted February 19, 2018 Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 Is there a lot of airbnbs close to the venue? I reserved a hostel, but I’m also considering if there are other options near the venue. On 2/16/2018 at 1:43 AM, Red Day said: Got an airbnb. Mate booked it so not sure address.

In 2015 I had to walk the far distance every time, while leaving after the headliners finished... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How difficult is it to grab a taxi/uber? I'm staying pretty central. A 10 minute drive, but 2 hour walk so it looks like the only option will be a taxi. Will possibly get my hotel to pre-book one if thats possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it’s safe to walk the far distance, right? I mean it’s really late and almost morning no one is going to harm you or whatever? I’ve never been to the festival and Portugal before. This will be my first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
