Paid Parking – How Does It Work?
The festival has set up a clear and effective mobility plan to ensure smooth traffic flow around the site.
The festival grounds and surrounding area are divided into three large color-coded zones, depending on where you're coming from.
Each Zone Includes:
- A paid nearby parking area, with its own route and motorway exit
- A park-and-ride lot with a free shuttle to the site
- A Park & Bike option or a designated cycling route
By following the recommended zone and route, you will save time, avoid detours, and arrive at the festival more relaxed !
How to Choose Your Zone?
This year, you can freely choose your zone (green, red, or yellow) when purchasing your parking ticket.
💡 For a smoother experience, we recommend following the suggested zone based on your postal code.
This allows you to:
- Avoid traffic jams
- Save time
- Contribute to smoother mobility for everyone
⚠️ By purchasing your ticket, you acknowledge that you have consulted the postal code table below. Ronquières Festival cannot be held responsible for detours or delays if you choose a different zone.
The 3 Zones at a Glance:
