Anyone know what parking provision is like? Toying with driving from the UK and getting Hive camping

I drove from UK last year and parking was fine, paid at the entrance and got a sticker on the windscreen so you could leave and come back if you wished. Plenty of spaces and the walk to the campsite wasn't far either. We got there on the Wednesday and were camping in the hive. Doing the same again this year.

the RW site does say that Pharrell brings the headliner count to three. But a lot of people think he'll be co-headlining?

With Chemical Brothers announcing June dates and their good relationship with RW, I think we found a dance closer certainty.

Would be incredible on the Saturday, just like in 07.

[Saeglopur]

I think we can expect some more names in the next two weeks, right? I remember we had two/three bigger acts for each day before the "christmas-break" last year.

[KarmicChris]

Nothing today either! Any other big festivals named anyone that could give us an idea as to who is gonna be at RW?

[micvet]

A Day to Remember, Airborne and Life of Agony will play on Graspop. You can count them out for RW.

[normalperson]

i just want one more larger act I like announced and I'll be happy to commit. Just wished they'd hurry up with it

[Last Nights Hero]

Reckon the next RW headliner will be the same one Pinkpop is announcing on the 8th?

[foolee]

Apparently not, supposedly the Pinkpop organizer has said in an interview somewhere that the last headliner is not the same as Rock Werchter's. The last Pinkpop headliner has been rumoured to be Robbie Williams...

In that case, thank God! aha. Hopefully we'll hear some big RW news this week.

[foolee]

I hope every afternoon at 4.00 that there is some news, or an act announced. Because there's got to be something sooner or later because I can't see why they'd have the Saturday day tickets on sale. Seems very strange. It's either going to be massive or they can't find a decent headliner, even then I'd have thought they'd announce a few smaller acts just to entice some people to buy.

[Last Nights Hero]

No news

Unfortunately I'm inclined to think it's probably the latter. The idea of putting the tickets on sale with absolutely no one announced for the Saturday just doesn't make any sense? Maybe it's the date change that's thrown things out of sync? I think Foo Fighters are pretty massive, can't think of many people that are would top them? It's frustrating 'cause me and a couple of mates are on the edge of getting tickets but just a few more names please!

Hopefully they won't call Editors and ask them to headline Saturday....

Would be great if Coldplay and Radiohead showed up. Hoping for Lenny Kravitz, Smashing Pumpkins, Faith no More & Slash (since those last two still don't appear on Graspop poster).

Editors are working on a new album so wouldn't be surprised if they take the summer off from festivaling. Coldplay/Radiohead would be great though

[johnybegood]

Reckon that The Black Keys will headline Saturday or co-headline friday with Pharrell

They had a poorly received show as subs in 2014 and the ticket sales to their 2015 arena show aren't going any better. If Black Keys return, it'll have to be in coheadlining construction with a bigger act than Pharrell. That is if.

[Red Day]

I was pretty disappointed with Black Keys at Glasto this year. They don't merit a headline spot IMO

[Mushy25]

I'd say a large part of the Black Keys reaction this year was the bloody rain. It started to get very heavy around the time they were coming on/playing, so it was hard to really enjoy it.

Regarding any possible future announcements, well Lenny Kravitz has announced a Rome gig. I know its end of July, but he is around Europe anyway. Also, if there is to be an announcement soon, he is playing at Xfactor on Saturday night. Normally acts who do that have some form of tour to announce/album to promote, so I can see his name appearing if he doesn't do Boutique/Classic!

[micvet]

Lenny Kravitz at Werchter -> 99%.
He's already confirmed for MSF (sister festival of RW).
Only question: Rock Werchter or Classic?

[Daniel Comino Royuela]

Read somewhere Pinkpop 8/12 name could be Paul McCartney...

... what do you think about it?

[Daniel Comino Royuela]

although Robbie Williams could totally fit the spot IMO

It makes sense. It's a public secret that McCartney had a deal with Pinkpop in 2013, but he bailed out because Bonnaroo offered him more money. Perhaps he's making up for that with a pretty exclusive festival performance. Since he won't be at RW, I can see him doing TW Classic/Boutique.
