Last time I camped I took small pillows from Blacks that were so bad I just folded my jeans and lay on those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maesydderwen Posted June 15, 2022 Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 You can get some decent sleeping bags (lightweight and ultralight weight) along with pillows that compress down to a very small size, especially as the weather is okay. I travel from the UK by plane with just a backpack (usually have a camping chair bungee corded to the front). Although I've bought a foldable chair this year which breaks down to nothing. The tent is usually the pain but you guys don't have that issue. I'm an absolute geek about this stuff though, although I don't spend too much on stuff.

They fill them up and off they go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a way to reserve then pick it up? In previous years of the festival there was a dedicated camping shop right in the Hive (called Tentenzo), it was very handy. You could pre-order your camping equipment then pick it up when you arrived. The same service does not seem to be available this year, so looks like I'm lugging a tent, sleeping bag, mat etc on a plane from Ireland 😢 Saaaame. Although I'm getting my tent in Brussels on the Tuesday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djd4 Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 Anyone know if we can show tickets on mobile this year or do we still have to print them like it's 2002? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VCF Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 Don’t think there’s a thread, but anyone was at Live is Live yesterday? Didn’t know what to expect but once you forget you’re in the horrendous Zeebrugge (they managed to make the location look quite nice) and get used to the sand, I have to say it was a pleasant surprise. I thought dEUS was really good and deserved 90 minutes. Wilco a bit long but a few great moments (Impossible Germany!). The National was outstanding. No Vanderlyle though, gutted! Free sunscreen was top notch. There’s room for improvment in terms of queues (Food was a bit of a disaster between dEUS and Wilco, had to give up), and I hate those VIP areas at the front, but overall a nice experience.

The earlier you are there the easier it will be to find a place for your tent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto77 Posted June 19, 2022 Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 Price for the Hive parking is 20 euros when you arrive on Wednesday, 15 euros when you arrive on Thursday. You have to pay cash and if you wanna leave the parking for instance on Saturdaymorning and come back a few hours later, you have to pay the parking fee again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neatneatneat Posted June 19, 2022 Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 Posted this in the wrong forum just now (D'oh!) So it works out that, if purchased in advance, One Food/Drink Voucher costs €3.25. (€65 for 20 Vouchers). I'm guessing then that it will be 2 x vouchers (€6.50) for a small beer? At Download Festival last weekend, it was £6.50 for a large beer? I would love for it to be 1 x voucher but can't see it but maybe I'm just being pessimistic? Does anybody think differently? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niels peeters Posted June 19, 2022 Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 It Will be 1 voucher for a beer (25 cl). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floyd_Ams Posted June 20, 2022 Report Share Posted June 20, 2022 (edited) Just came back from Graspop and can confirm this. 1 voucher = 1 beer as always. Interestingly enough though at least half of the beer stands, if not more, were selling pints only (for 2 vouchers). No wonder that there were so many people completely wasted. I'm curious to see if RW will do the same (very likely considering that they are sister festivals).

It was such a pain in the ass to get a drink at Primavera that you'd always buy 2x 33cl for yourself, maybe more for mates, and even then wish you could just buy 2 pints each and be back in the music for longer. Then again Primavera had horrendous queues so maybe less of a problem at RW, dunno, first timer. £6 for a festival pint wouldn't be too bad at all right now.
