This festival lasts three days, but most people spent 5 days and arrive on thursday , leave on monday. There are a lot of venues and all kinds of music, so there will be something you'll like. Besides that, there is a venue for smaller and new acts and one for theather. The dancescene has its own venue, so everybody can enjoy good entertainment. The food on the festival becomes better every year and the athmosphere is relaxed and great. Most of the public stays on the campside, where you can party 24/7. If you want to have an experience more comfortable, it is possible to book a small cottage near the festival. The only thing that is not nice of this festival is that you are completely wasted an you'll need at least one week to recover after you come home

I'm too old to go to this but it's an amazing festival. Attended years ago and saw in 3 days Sonic Youth, Q-Tip, Ash, Blur, Noel Gallagher, Thom Yorke, etc. Met a lot of very friendly Dutch folks who shared their enormous tent (and generator and sofa). Movies are screened around the clock.

The lowlands festival is a great holiday, no matter what music you like your needs are catered for, good food, small portions, clean, spacious, fantastic sounds, nice people, lowlanders, street theatre, showers, flushing clean toilets, nothing bad for lowlands, been about 10 times never too much, chill out or party hard, is all about the atmosphere.

The best festival in the Netherlands. Although the line-up is probably not always the most exciting, the atmosphere is unique and makes it very much worth visiting. I have been there 4 times in a row now and will definitely be there next year!
Make sure you are there early on the Thursday before to make sure you have a good camping spot. And bring something to carry your bags and tent because it's quite a long walk to the campings.

Lowlands FAN BAG TIC BUT sorry Juliet, I forgot my phone and wanted to go back inside. That turned out to be a huge problem. All interesting people. It turns out that my phone is in the supervisor's pocket and he doesn't say so. He lets me search the room. ⁉️Eventually a friend calls me.. and therefore the phone back. What unhelpful people! Sad folks

should I take a tent to the festival myself? Is it not convenient to take the luggage there？

ראיתי שרוב המידע על הפסטיבל מוצג בהולנדית. האם יהיה בעיה להסתדר בלי לדעת את השפה
