Hey everyone,
Can somebody tell me when the presale for next year‘s edition on Hellsquare usually opens?
Thanks for your help and rock on!!
It’s been a few years now that there’s no more sales for early tickets for the next edition, on Hellsquare. The ticket sale for 2023 will take place later this year…
Oh ok, that’s a pity! Thanks so much for your help though!
In the past they opened Red camp Wednesday night
Wonder whether this will be the case again this year?
Just wait and see 
Hi Folks,
I have a quick questions. I purchased a 4 day pass for the 2nd weekend including a bus trip with Ontours from Strasbourg. The bus departs at 21st of June in the evening and I will be arriving on Wednesday 22nd. Will I be allowed to camp with my tent on the festival area on 22nd? On the homepage I couldn’t find this specific info. I do also have an Easy Camp ticket for the 2nd weekend. May I access my tipi already on Wednesday 22nd when I arrive?
Thx for any help
Yes you will be allowed on the camping
Hello, can anyone let me know what sort of suntanned bottles are allowed in the concert area (.e.g. sth like the attached picture is ok)? And is there any kind of food allowed to bring with you?
yes that’s fine - my rule of thumb is that everything that can go through an airport check in (<100ml) should be way within HF security rules whatever they are.
Not sure about food but similarly small snacks should fine (like applesauce pouches, cereal bars which I used to bring regularly).
Thank you Jakal. Let’s hope everyone enjoys it.
Good morning all. Hope anyone that did weekend 1 had a great time.Just wondering if anyone did Easycamp ont he first weekend and can confirm exactly what you get? There seems to be some confusion about whether the ‹ sleep system › is a ground mat or a sleeping bag or both.
Eitherway, looking forward to my first Hellfest and maybe see some of you in Nantes on wednesday night. We’re flying from Gatwick wednesday morning and staying the night in the Ibis near the train station.
That would be very interesting to know for me as well!
Another question: Are there any bottles allowed on the festival site which I can bring to fill up on the water points?
We did EasyCamp for weekend one. We had an 8-person Tipi. You get a 10cm foam mattress thing, with a duvet, lighters bed sheet, a sheet cover for the mattress, and a pillow. No sleeping bag. You also get a little hygiene kit with shampoo, shower gel, a tooth brush and tooth paste. The Tipi also came with a lamp, but it didn’t really do much. You don’t get camping chairs with the Tipi’s, but the people in the little 2-person duo tents (which are basically cardboard) do get two camping chairs.
There’s a stand in the mornings that do coffee and croissants/pain au chocolat/brioche, and then poutine in the afternoons. And there’s showers available. They had no hot water the whole weekend, but to be honest, given how insanely hot it was, a cold shower was all you needed! One thing to note, especially if you’re normally a Download-goer, there didn’t seem to be anywhere to buy any additional camping equipment, like camp chairs, etc. Just something to keep in mind.
As for getting into the festival site, they let people take in water bottles because it was so hot. I don’t think they normally do this, but changed the policy because of the weather. I don’t know if they’ll keep that in place for next weekend, but I’d hope so.
Hope that info helps! It was an incredible weekend, and I can’t wait for Round 2 this Thursday! My only other advice is bring LOTS of suncream…
Thanks Thomcas, thats very helpful. Its the lil cardboard one for us… its going to be cozy!
To those who attended the first weekend, I will arrive by car around noon on Thursday, what chances do you think I will have of getting in P3? Or should I just head straight for the west car park?
Thanks
Thanks for the info!
Please excuse me if this has been asked before. Can anyone let us know at what time does the wristband exchange open tommorrow? I could not trace this information on the site
Hello all,
Does anyone know if it is possible to exchange the One Day Ticket for Friday into the wristband already on Thursday in order to save time on Friday?
Thanks a lot
Somewhere on the website it says: gates open 9 am.
Thank you. It was in a table that i could not see from my phone.
