I'm flying in on the 10th in the morning (just booked my flight today) and will just go to the festival for the Saturday (well basically, just for PJ). Will stay at a hotel.

Got a message from Rock Werchter about food and drink vouchers, has anyone bought these? I thought they were probably for people staying for the whole thing rather than for one day.

THINK I READ THAT YOU CANT BUY FOOD OR DRINK WITH CASH ONCE INSIDE ONLY VOUCHERS

THEY ARE A BIT CHEAPER TO BUY NOW UP FRONT AND + WILL SAVE HAVING TO STAND IN ONE QUE TO BUY VOUCHERS THEN ANOTHER FOR FOOD AN DRINK

I GOING TO GET SOME BEFORE I GO ANAYWAY

Cool, thanks Paul (and Jenny), looks like you're right

The last food and drink vouchers are for sale now. Buy your food/drink coupons in presale and save money! Presale food/drink coupons cost 2.25 Euros. During the festival, coupons cost 2.50 Euros each. Presale for these food and drink vouchers will end on Monday, April 5th. After that, coupons can only be bought on the festival grounds.

Have you ordered everything already but forgot to order your food/drink vouchers? No worries, you can reorder them until Sunday, April 4. Choose the option 'E-ticket' while placing your order but pay attention: these vouchers can only be bought by credit card.

On the festival grounds , food and drink coupons can be purchased both cash or with a debit or credit card. Pay attention: KBC bank only provides one point where money can be collected, i.e. the mobile bank stand on the festival grounds.

So I shall be buying my coupons before Sunday

Edited to add that the minimum number of vouchers you can buy in the pre-sale is 20 for 45 euros.

Help me Hard Rock Calling vets!

If I show up for Hard Rock Calling at 6:30, I'd probably be way the f**k in the back and the band will be like ants, right? My sister and her fiance can't take the day off from work so if I wait for them, that's when we'll be getting there.

I'm also guessing if I go ahead and try to save spots for them they won't find me, plus we'd get dirty looks from everyone, yes?

how do you 'save a spot' for someone at a festival, gues you just wait for them and go in as far as you can...i feel bad for doing that but most of the time i dont care as im really small so if i go infront they shouldnt mind but i dont know about your size ;p

As brisk said, don't see how you can 'save a spot' at a festival, even if you're at the barrier. Take chances and 'weave' in.

Ha ha, I guess I was thinking I would go early, be close to the front then they'd have to find their way to me. I guess that's not really saving a spot! Were like 5' 5" to 5' 10" which I'm guessing is not going to be looked kindly upon if we go ahead of people!

no problem, HBF is next to Alexanderplatz, so its close to the hotel(s) i arrive there as well, but supposedly around 14:10 so i got some time to check in and go back to the train station to pick you guys up there
My friend Claudia comes later that evening, she has to work first and goes by car
