They have the worst organised shuttle services of all the festivals i’ve been to in europe & uk! And what makes it even sadder is they claim they have no control over the taxis & shuttles as it’s a separate entity. LOL it’s your festival, you hired the folks, you can tell them to be organised and systematic. I don’t mind waiting a little but the pushing & shoving to get on the bus is ridiculous! get a couple of barricades & some security guys to man help make it a smoother shuttle service.
I have been going for 3 years now and its a WAR every night getting on the shuttle to Nantes. Unfortunately no choice as camping isn’t the best idea for lack of toilets & showers. And i have heard some nasty stories LOL!
I was on the camping last year, and NOTHIGN happened!
The lack of toilets is a point, but I could live with it. And a shower, well baby wipers will do the trick as well. And I’m sure, there are many people, who feel the same way.
I’m a girl and I like to be clean (not as my male friends :lol: ). I’ve never waited for a shower or toilets. And this year they added outdoor showers; no waiting! You can also stay in Clisson; some residents rent their homes or garden.
I’m not telling that shuttles are great or that it’s normal that hellfest do nothing about that, but please, you can’t tell that camping is not a possible option.
I’ve done camping and the shuttle. The camping was fine no problems other than you have to get up early for the showers and toilets. i’m just getting too old to camp now and i do prefer the luxury of a nice bed. We have been going for a few years now and are gradually fine tuning it each time for a better experience. So now I’ve done the shuttle I won’t be doing it again (as per my comments above.)
Really looking forward to the first announcements this year. Who do we reckon ? Hoping for Iron Maiden (they just announced Graspop on Sunday 19th so in the area) Tool, Rammstein, Ghost, Metallica??
Hey guys,
i am new in the forum and have never been at hellfest before.
I didnt find informations how to order tickets from Germany for hellfest.
So can you give me a link or a short explanation? … i dont speak french 8o
Thanks in advance!
They are e-tickets, so it doesn’t matter from where you order them. However, at the moment the remaining tickets are not available until the first announcement, probably at the end of this month.
Ok, thanks for information!
Is Festicket the only provider of festival tickets?
Will the price stay the same?
How long will it take that the last 25% of tickets will be sold out?
Ok, so my info on camping facilities seems a little lacking LOL may be camping is the way to go…And yes shuttles haven’t been too impressive and i am right on this matter
Maiden was here in 2014, so i don’t see them coming again. With download france happening i see black sabbath and maiden going to paris. I believe Metallica & Rammstein should be a real possibility. And how I would love to see Tool & SOAD!!! Not that i won’t love Maiden & Sabbath, but seeing them every second year makes no sense for me.
This year the festival itself & [url=http://www.digitick.com]www.digitick.com are both selling the tickets. The one on the festival page are cheaper by 1 euro approx. Not sure how much time before the last 25% sell but considering the past 2 years…they should be gone soon after they make the first announcement. So you should buy yours asap when they restart the ticket sales.
Bei uns sind die Tickets erreichbar beim Digitick und durch offiziell [url=http://www.hellfest.fr]www.hellfest.fr
Sind weniger als 25% Tickets noch nicht verkauft…aber wenn die erste Namen von Band werden bekannt sein, es wird wahrscheinlich ziemlich schnell weg gehen… Und der Preis wird gleich bleiben…
Hi Becloid,
I have read your comments about the shuttle to Nantes. - Do you mind sharing some information on your own minibus solution? Would it be possible for you to take us onboard?
We are a group of 4-6 metalheads from Spain and Germany and we will be staying in Nantes. We would gladly share the costs of the minibus.
There is a function on this board, called « E-MAIL ». It is visible under the user’s avatar, or name. (depending if the particular user has an avatar). If you click on it, you can send a PM to the person itself, so you know s/he will recieve it. That way, you’re sure s/he will recieve it.
Hi,
we will probably hire a van ourselves (havent got the details yet) but as there are 8 of us going we are looking at an 8 seater people carrier so we will be full - sorry!
Have a look at hiring from Nantes airport or central Nantes, we are staying next to the airport so that is probably what we will do.
Well there is the Easycamp Option where you rent a tent that will be already set up for you.
look for easy camp in the Info section.
But detailed info on 2016 are not yet available.
Usually you have to rent in advance or you might face the risk of not getting one.
and i do prefer the luxury of a nice bed. We have been going for a few years now and are gradually fine tuning it each time for a better experience. So now I’ve done the shuttle I won’t be doing it again (as per my comments above.)
