There is a designated parking field near the festival where your car must be parked. It is not possible to take your car on onto the campsite. Parking tickets must be purchased beforehand in the ticket shop.
For safety purposes, sleeping in your car is prohibited. The sole exception is for individuals possessing a valid campervan ticket, which permits them to park their campervans in the specified campervan parking zone. Please note that these tickets are currently sold out and are no longer available for purchase in the ticket shop. For more info on camper vans, please see below.
Pre-arranged rental tents can be found at Camping Field 2 and can’t be moved, except Kartents (which you can move subject to crew instructions). Collect rental tent tickets at the Camping Field 2 check-in desk.
Pre-arranged tents will be fully set up on Thursday for people with a valid Thursday Early Access ticket.
You can purchase a 120m2 Friends Zone field where you can stay with ±15 people. This area is for you to fill with tents, so if you want to camp in your Friends Zone with more people, go for it! Go to the pre-arranged check-in desk (at Camping Field 2) with your Friends Zone ticket to get directions to your zone.
Campervan tickets are completely sold out. Only campers, caravans and tent trailers that meet the requirements mentioned in the road traffic act and the vehicleregulations are permitted.
Every campervan ticket grants you 30 m2. You are not allowed to put a tent on the ground next to your campervan. Others can set their tent up in a camping field nearby, but it is not allowed to put tents in the same area as the campervans. The towing car of a caravan must be removed from the campsite immediately after disconnecting and can be parked in the regular car parking (a separate parking ticket is needed).
Your campervan can only enter once: it is not possible to leave and re-enter. Furthermore, you can only enter and leave during general opening hours. You are allowed to have a filled water tank, the contents of which will be checked. Other than that, all the regular rules apply (e.g. no glass, maximum 4L liquid per person on first entry, max 15% alcohol).
Depending on your ticket, you may have access to a 220v power point. Make sure to bring your own power cable of ±25 meters.
Gas installations with separate removable gas cylinders in campers, caravans and/or tent trailers are not permitted due to fire regulations. Only gas installations with fixed non-removable built-in gas tanks are permitted. For campers and APK-obligatory caravans with such fixed gasinstallations, a recently (max. 1 year old) APK inspection report must be shown. For caravans without an APK inspection that do have such fixed gas installations, a recent (up to 2 years old) gasinspection G607 must be shown. Without one of these inspection documents, it is only allowed to carry small gas bottles (max 190 grams) for single use.
On the regular campsite, sleeping hours begin at 02:00 and end at 09:00. Portable speakers are not allowed during this time, and we ask that you keep noise to a minimum.
On the silent campsite, portable speakers are prohibited, and quiet conversation is encouraged. Although the camping crew enforces these rules, expect some inevitable noise at the festival campsite. Pro tip: Use wax earplugs, found at most supermarkets.
Portable speakers longer than 25cm are not allowed at Liquicity Festival.

Use them to store your valuable personal belongings such as passports, wallets, or cameras. Pro tip: tag your valuable personal belongings with your name and phone number.
