That is something I'd consider. I remember when I went I couldn't find any hotels too close. Is there any that is easy to get to and back?

I think there are buses going to and from Hasselt.

Sorry for the no reply, been on holiday. 

Getting to and from Hasselt is dead quick and easy. We normally get the train up to the site which is every hour and cuts out having to go to the campsites which the bus does. The bus back is direct to Hasselt and takes about 15 minutes. As someone's said. The hostel behind the train station is really convenient, we've stayed there the last 5 times we've been and have booked again. Most of the other hotels are 5-10 minute walk from the station but are generally more expensive, but give a little bit more luxury and the chance to see some of the artists too. 

Hasselts a great city as well. We enjoy the few beers in town beforehand just as much as we do the festival itself.

No worries at all. Hope you enjoyed your holiday. Yeah that sounds like a good plan, now I just need to speak to my festival going friends and see what we all collectively agree on. 

Thanks for your help.
