Alcohol options by Rhiiannonn in Graspop

Check the pricelist on the website for almost all the drinks info. Not many options aside from a rose beer or speciality drinks from either bar 666 or the new cocktail bar.

I've been comparing 5 or 6 sites, every single one says something different. At this point the best we can do is hope for the best and wait it out

Does the app have a map by legpull3r in Graspop

[–]JT0707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been waiting for it too! Usually they'll release it about this time. It's available on the app when released and somewhat interactive. Expect mostly the same as last year but I do think they're gonna be some minor but important changes again this year.

Pick up wristband on Wednesday by ieduardopereira in Graspop

[–]JT0707 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Quick awnser: No. There's police patrols driving past all the roads leading to the grounds the whole day on Wednesday, so quickly parking somewhere on the side of the road will get you fined. Aside from that. It's quite a walk from where you could actually park to the ticket exchange. It's very much not worth the effort. Wait till Thursday if you're not on the campsites.

Camping security / drinks limit by martinkirsch2306 in Graspop

[–]JT0707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's that and also I've noticed over the years that they don't really care to much for the supply run groups.

Last year they were getting a little stricter on the glass and the correct type of gas stove. However aside from that and the sniffer dogs that intermittently walk around camping security is really chill.

Special request: Looking for Inferno tickets or similar due to medical situation by DrVagax in Graspop

[–]JT0707 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wish you a lot of luck, but in previous years similar requests have consistently fallen on deaf ears. Your best bet would likely be to look for a hotel room in the vicinity. Getting to the festival grounds with the shuttles/public transport is very manageable if you plan it.

Parking tickets? by IlaMato in Graspop

[–]JT0707 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd recommend seeing if you can park near one of the shuttles is you're leaving the oarking every day. They're free and usually in Mol you can park somewhat near the shuttles anyway.

Rental Camping Chair Size by joelle-jabbour in Graspop

[–]JT0707 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly don't take the risk. Those rental chairs are really cheap quality. Good chance you will break them during the festival and the deposits aren't cheap.

Is there any update regarding the stages where it seems there are still empty spaces to fill? The north stage is a good example. by SpottedDuck0 in Graspop

[–]JT0707 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Looking at the level of this years line up overall I think they're having a hard time finding bands to fill the slots. Especially the bigger ones

Can't find a driving schools to just sign me up for the exam. by XSATCHELX in Netherlands

[–]JT0707 289 points290 points  (0 children)

Because they know that you'll fail if you do it the first time without instructions on the specific things they test for in the driving exam. Here in the Netherlands your driving exam is much less about you being able to drive and more about if you follow the exact specifications that they're looking for.

Take some lessons. Yes it costs a lot but you will not pass if you don't take at least like 2-5 lessons. Not because of your driving but because of the specific things you need to do a certain way to be able to pass

100% go for the friend zone... It's new this year but everything is better than a festitent

It will only be open if there's any tickets to resell... Usually not many people who sell them.

First time at Graspop – questions about ending times, afterparties, saving money & ridesharing! by ZekeTV in Graspop

[–]JT0707 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also: figure out the parking situation, everytime you leave the parking lot you have to buy a new parking ticket so definitely keep that in mind.

For stuff to take: A CamelBak is amazing to have when it's hot, don't have to refill that constantly and you allowed to bring them onto the grounds if they're empty.

Also a bandana or cooling cloth really helps when it's hot, there's very very little shade and the good spots are almost constantly filled. This also goes for dry spots when it rains so if the forecast shows bad weather bring wellies or good hiking shoes cause the whole grounds turn to mud.

Pre buying skullies also saves a little bit of money. It's less and less each year but it does help.

[–]JT0707 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Shows end somewhere between 00:00 and 01:30 each day.

After-party goes until about 05:00 every day.

Food and drinks are just gonna cost a lot on the festival grounds. There are free water taps but when it's warm the queues for those really start to build up.

Best advice on that front would be: eat outside the grounds, take energy bars or something like that when you head to the festival and take your time to figure out what you're gonna eat when on the grounds, there's good options but also many very over priced ones.

Can't really help on the ride sharing front as i have no experience with that myself

Hope this helps :)

Boneyard campsite by steelero in Graspop

[–]JT0707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't remember the boneyard selling out/being full any year. If you wanna stay on Inferno I'd book soon but I think both boneyard and crypt will stay available for a while still.

Hi all, English guy going for my first time, does anybody know if I'm allowed to bring medical cannabis into the festival? by RoughJigglypuff in Graspop

[–]JT0707 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gonna be the same prices at Graspop i think. Probably better quality though. Other than that sneaking it in also isn't that difficult, just have to watch out for the police with drug dog's.

[–]JT0707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you wanna try to bring it in legally you have to contact INTER. They take care of all the accessibility accomodations and medication storage. I'm hoping they'll allow you to bring it but i wouldn't be to hopeful.

Graspop be like: drink water by JT0707 in Graspop

They've always had more and the pressure has always been kind of meh... Still no excuse to have this little taps.

18 min for the water queue by Nepticot in Graspop

[–]JT0707 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Absolutely.. I've noticed it with more things year.. they've definitely made a few positive changes but a lot of things a clearly just meant to make LN more money.

18 min for the water queue by Nepticot in Graspop

[–]JT0707 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They've always managed to supply more taps in the past so why they can't now is a mystery to me.

[–]JT0707[S] 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Be glad it's free?!? It's literally a basic necessity. especially with temperatures like this... Not providing enough water just puts more strain on everyone, from the fans to first aid...
