I can’t really judge how popular Ethel Cain is in Belgium. None of my friends or colleagues know her — unless I introduced them to her :-) I saw her in October at Ancienne Belgique. It was sold out, with a line almost reaching the Grand-Place. There was a large international audience. I’m not sure whether these people would buy Rock Werchter tickets just for her. KlubC is five times bigger than AB. Will it fill up?

I was planning on going to Joy Crookes and then staying in the tent to get a “close to barricade” position. That would mean missing David Byrne. Apparently, his show is also very good. So now I’m reconsidering: should I watch the first half of the David Byrne show and then head to KlubC?

PS: I’m a huge fan of Ethel Cain. Her concert at Ancienne Belgique was the best concert of my life (and I’m 56 and have been to hundreds). I first saw her in 2023 at Gunnersbury Park as support for Boygenius, and then again in 2024 in London at the All Points East festival.

Me and my babe are going to the festival for the fifth time and usually we've taken one or two days in Brussels afterwards. Now I'd like to go somewhere else, take a train into some nice town or city for two nights. Do you have any recommendations?

Heading to Rock Werchter this summer for the first time (staying in Leuven) and I'm already thinking about the important stuff, beer.

I've been spoiled lately by De Garre on a recent Belgium trip, so I'm curious: what's the actual beer selection like at the festival? Is it mostly a Jupiler-and-done situation, or do they have some craft or local options on site?

And if it really is just Jupiler, any recommendations for good beer bars or spots in Leuven to get some proper Belgian ales before or after the festival days? We're staying in the city centre so anything walkable from there would be brilliant.

Cheers! 🇧🇪

Het festival is over amper 2 maand, ik heb nog steeds een VIP ticket voor 4 dagen in de beste omstandigheden beschikbaar. Ge roept maar indien interesse.

Hey hey, weet iemand of een reguliere campingticket geldig is in combinatie met een dagticket voor het festival? Of moet je dan perse een weekendticket voor het festival hebben? Ik heb een dagticket voor de zaterdag van het festival en zou graag de nacht ervoor en de nacht erna op de camping willen verblijven. Thanks 😄!

Beste iedereen,
Zijn de parkeertickets allemaal al de deur uit of zullen die later nog beschikbaar komen? (op de site staat ‘volgt later’)
Mvg Jonas

We are coming for just the Saturday. Are there any places to buy food before entering festival grounds? What sort of food is available inside the festival itself, and what kind of prices are they?
