What advice do you have for first timers?
My tips and tricks:
- You can bring food to the festival site. Beats the 9 euro crappy bratwurst. And....Vodka watermelon anyone?
- They close the tents when full, so if you really want to see a show be there in time
- If you are tired or hungover there is seating at the Barn
- The Speciale Bieren Bar is great. Previous years they had excellent beers, like Leffe, Karmeliet and Kwak. Much better than the watery festival beer. Wine and cocktails too, but haven't tried them.
- There often are long lines to get your food/drink vouchers early Thursday, so if you see a short line get in
- Watch out for the oak trees and the Oak processionary
