The years before the drop was 1,5 km away which was a 15 min walk. Have attached some google maps shots. the 1,5 km is the old way, the 2 km is the new one. OK, maybe 40 minutes was too much, but I won't go any second under 30 minutes with the estimation. And I was always walking at a medium pace, at least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm unsure whether I will make another thread this year as I'm going into the Hive Resort this year. But never say never... Anyone else can do it too nearer the time, it was super easy will be a first timer in RW this year, interested in joining! any links would be appreciated (: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tremousse Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 Nobody find it strange that they didn't announce any name last week, this considering the time they've taken to announce headliners? This would be, imo, a very bad strategy if they don't have a big surprise coming. RW is an old lady... I don't think it's over. The Killers or Am can have a coheadliner.

I think to have an act in between Arctic Monkeys & Nick Cave is optimistic seen as though he's headlining pretty much every other festival he's playing at. I'm still optimistic for someone before / after The Killers though, I agree last weeks absence was bizarre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gossard Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 I think the most we can hope for is a great dance-act after The Killers (Prodigy?) and maybe a better sub then Snow Patrol..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably going to be one or the other in that case, Killers closing with a better sub or a dance act closing with Snow Patrol subbing.

VIrgile2b Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 14 hours ago, jmdelblinky said: I had the hotel/ticket package in 2013 and there was one shuttle each day, leaving from Brussels about 1 hour before first concert and departing the festival area 20 minutes after the last concert ends. The shuttle will pick you from the front of your hotel and drop you very conveniently, about 5 minutes from the festival entrance. In 2013 there was a different entrance for those who had the hotel/ticket package, which, if is still like this in 2018, will help you avoid the long queue. If you stay at a hotel in Leuven, the shuttle will drop you very far from the festival area, about 40 minutes walk. I did all these 3 options in last years, Brussels hotel package, camping in Hive and booked a hotel in Leuven. Now with the Hive Resort, this would be my choice when I return to Werchter Thank you very much, It's really useful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bury420 Posted February 27, 2018 Report Share Posted February 27, 2018 The new bus stop is btw worse connected than the old one. They also have the kiss&ride stop there so cars queue up. Also the transit time to Leuven station was a bit longer than previously. On the other hand: I am quite sure the residents are very happy that they can leave their houses during the festival now and are not fenced in anymore. Summed up: it is less convenient than it was before but it is still ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
