Festivalpark Werchter Belgium

Rock Werchter for festivalgoers with a disability

Together with Inter, Rock Werchter makes the festival as accessible as possible for visitors with a disability. We focus on the festival grounds, the surrounding area, and practical support during your visit.

Accessibility
  • You do not need a specific ticket for the festival grounds; however, every visitor must have a valid admission ticket. There are no exceptions or discounts for companions.
  • There is an alternative, accessible, and less crowded entrance and exit for visitors with a disability. One companion is permitted to enter via this entrance. For safety reasons, this alternative exit closes half an hour before the end of the final concert. After that time, you may still leave the festival grounds via the main exit.
  • Folding chairs up to 50 cm in height, without a backrest, are permitted on the festival grounds. Folding chairs are not allowed in the front-of-stage area.
  • At the Main Stage, KluB C, The Barn and NEST, there are raised platforms for wheelchair users, visitors using crutches, and others who may require it. Each visitor may be accompanied by a maximum of one person on the platform. Wheelchairs are not permitted in the front-of-stage area. Power outlets are available at the wheelchair platforms for medical needs.
  • During the festival, you can make use of ADL assistants free of charge. Please feel free to approach them if you need assistance; they can be found on the festival grounds near the platforms designated for visitors with a disability.
  • Accessible toilets are provided on the festival grounds and in the designated ADL camping area. For hygiene reasons, the accessible toilets within the general restroom blocks are kept locked; please speak to a staff member in the restroom area, and they will open the door for you.
  • If you need to bring medication, food, or drinks onto the festival grounds for medical reasons, please request permission in advance and provide a copy of a doctor’s note.
  • Pets are not permitted. Assistance dogs - including those in training - are welcome. Please ensure you can provide documentation and that the dog is clearly identifiable.
  • We provide a low-stimulus space: a calm area where you can take a break if things become overwhelming. You can find it behind the ‘We Care a Lot’ stand. Please speak to a staff member, who will be happy to assist you.
Camping
  • For The Hive ADL - the designated campsite - you will need a specific ticket. Be sure to book in advance, as space is limited. You may bring up to four friends to stay with you at The Hive ADL.
  • The Hive ADL is located right next to the entrance to the festival grounds. The campsite opens at 8:00 AM on Thursday (not on Wednesday!) and closes at 12:00 PM on Monday. A ticket for The Hive ADL also grants access to Central Park.
  • This campsite is equipped with the necessary facilities to ensure that visitors with disabilities can fully enjoy Rock Werchter.
Parking
  • Do you have a European blue parking card and need to park close by? If so, be sure to book a specific ticket for a reserved parking space well in advance. The number of spaces is limited.
  • Wheelchair users can take a shuttle bus from Leuven or Aarschot train station. These buses, operated by De Lijn, are accessible to wheelchair users. Please note that the drop-off and pick-up point is located approximately 2 km from the festival entrance. There is no additional shuttle service.
Reservation & contact
  • Would you like to make use of specific facilities for visitors with a disability? If so, please register using this form before 10 June 2027. You will also need to make a separate reservation for the designated parking area and The Hive ADL.
