    Hey can you smart folks help me book my Werchter train ticket?

    I'm staying in Brussels near Grand Place. I think I got it right but do I select from 'Bruxelles - Centraal B' to 'Louvian B'

    I'm confused about Louvian because I always thought it was spelled Leuven.

    I don't think it's necessary to make a booking for this kind of trains - it's a simple commuter railway system, there's dozens of trains all day and I really doubt they can sell out or so.
    That's my (Swiss-European) notion - for a 100 % definite answer, wait for the next Belgian to pop in here.. ;)

    So I was talking to some friends of my housemates yesterday and they were wondering what I was up to for the summer. Explained "this day 3 weeks I'm seeing Pearl Jam in the O2 and then I'll be heading up to Belfast to see them there..."
    Please don't go to the O2, you'll be seeing Bon Jovi :cry:

    Hyde Park. Get off the tube at Hyde Park corner. :lol:

    I did mean the O2 in Dublin ;)
    You had me worried. Could have been a very nasty shock.

    Leuven is the correct spelling, or Louvain in French (Louvain-la-neuve is not the correct city though).I've never heard of a city in Belgium called Louvian. If you use http://hari.b-holding.be/HAFAS/bin/query.exe/en? and select from "Brussel-centraal" to "Leuven" and confirm "Leuven [Station/Stop]" on the next page, you should get the correct trains. Reservations are not necessary though, you can also buy a ticket in the station when you get there.

    Thanks - you're right. Weird when I click on the link I got by email, I clicked EN for english, then it sent me to the wrong part of the site.

    I figured it out though. I just hope my hotel is near Brussels Centraal..sounds right though ;)

    ps - my bad I meant Louvain.

    I'm not Belgian but I know about the train to Leuven/Louvain. It is definitely a commuter line with very regular trains. Only takes about 25 minutes or so (some trains are a bit slower than others) to get to Leuven. Last time I bought a ticket (April), it was under 5 Euros for a single. Get your ticket at the station. Just as easy.

    Oh boy!

    They do mention Johnny Cash as one of their influences, so at least that´s a plus to me...

    I'm not sure how much Johnny Cash will be involved :?
    I'm not hopeful!

    A free return train ticket from any station in Belguim to Leuven and then free transport from Leuven to the festival site. They sent me an email with a link in it which went live today to get your train ticket.
    The code for your free train is on your e-ticket, I'll get the link...
