AAlex Posted February 15, 2018 Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 Jungle announced their tour this week with no Belgium date and are already at Bilbao BBK the week after RW. Hopefully they'll be in tomorrow's announcements, would be amazing in The Barn! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dietediet Posted February 15, 2018 Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 Slowdive, Emili Sandé, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Sampha, Goldfrapp and Tune-Yards ruled out. They're all in tomorrow's Cactus Festival announcement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very excited, first Euro festival Whats the night time/after band stuff like? As far as I'm aware for after arena stuff you need to be going to The Hive really. We did it last year and will again this year. Not to be confused with Hive Resort which is the glamping... The Hive is basically just a separate camp site and has it's own tent/stage that had DJs on every night, including the Wednesday. The Hive is the same price as a regular camping ticket so it doesn't cost you anymore but does sell out, I'm not sure when exactly last year but I'd get it sooner rather than later. It's also the only camp site open on the Wednesday which I'd recommend because then you're all pitched up before the full day of music Thursday There's also showers, food vendors, phone charging, I'm sure there was even a place to play Playstation last year, I've only ever done The Hive so I don't know which of these you get in regular too, but judging by this description possibly none of them. EDIT couldn't see an article just about The Hive, but they posted on 21st March 2017 saying all weekend and The Hive tickets were gone.

StageBack Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 Don't think it will be about the bands named above. Today will be all about the Belgian acts. At 10am Studio Brussel, the partnering radio station starts the top 100 of best Belgian songs, ends around 16.00. Perfect timing to announce all Belgian acts.

McCallion Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 Hey folks, I know this is very off topic but I hope you're cool with it as I'm a regular poster here. One time only I swear! Outside of speculating about festivals online, I make music and I have a new song out today. If you like Nothing But Thieves, Muse, that sort of stuff, you might enjoy it. Okay, i'll shut up now. Hoping to maybe see Marmozets, Kasabian, Courtney Barnett, Enter Shikair & Biffy at 4 today! 1 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I've got tickets for both and they are pretty similar but should help with clashes and also have the likes of Nick Cave, Gorillaz, The Killers and Stereophonics so far that MC doesn't. I couldn't recommend RW enough, me and the 3 friends I went with last year are all returning and agree it's the best festival we've done. One pointer... I'd keep an eye out for when The Hive campsite opens on the Wednesday (I think it was 14:00 last year) and make sure you are there at that time or before. We naively turned up a couple of hours later and we were queueing/hunting for a spot for at least an hour and a half. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossfit Jesus Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 Has anyone got any idea of when the Eurostar typically starts to sell out for these dates/taking the Eurostar in general? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
me9999 Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 hi guys, do you know if there's a public transportation from werchter\leuven on sunday night after the last show? i had to book a flight at 6 am from brussels and i wonder if there are cheaper ways than taxi from the campsite to the airport... thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't worry about it selling it. It's the price rises as it fillls up.. I check each week. Not entirely sold on the line up. Going to them this week and next to add more I like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
