# Flying to Tomorrowland: airports, routes and timing

**Short answer:** The closest major airport for Tomorrowland is Brussels Airport (BRU), about 22 km in a straight line from the festival in Boom. Trains run from there to Boom, and in 2026 Tomorrowland ran airport buses to DreamVille from BRU, Charleroi (CRL) and Eindhoven (EIN). Antwerp (ANR) is closer but had no official festival transport.

## Which airport is closest to Tomorrowland?

Brussels Airport (BRU) is the easiest choice for Tomorrowland, about 22 km in a straight line from the festival in Boom. It also had the most official transport options in 2026. This is how the airports nearby compare:

| Arrival airport | Distance to Boom (km, straight line) | Official festival transport 2026 |
|---|---|---|
| Antwerp (ANR) | 12.7 | No official information |
| Brussels Airport (BRU) | 22.0 | Train to Boom, airport bus to DreamVille (Thu, return Mon) |
| Brussels South Charleroi (CRL) | 69.9 | Airport bus to DreamVille |
| Eindhoven (EIN) | 79.9 | Airport bus to DreamVille |
| Amsterdam Schiphol (AMS) | 138.2 | No official bus |

Distances are measured in a straight line from the festival address, not by road. We have not found the 2026 prices for the airport buses, so check them when Tomorrowland publishes its travel page for 2027.

## Flights to Brussels from Scandinavia: which departure airport?

Start from the airport nearest to you, then compare the arrival airports above:

| Departure airport | Good for | Direct flights in July 2027, per a flight search in October 2026 |
|---|---|---|
| Stockholm Arlanda (ARN) | Stockholm region | BRU with SAS and Brussels Airlines (about 2:10), AMS with KLM, SAS and Norwegian (about 2:00) |
| Gothenburg Landvetter (GOT) | West Sweden | AMS with KLM (about 1:30). Brussels Airlines flies to BRU (about 1:40), but July 2027 was not on sale yet |
| Copenhagen (CPH) | Denmark and southern Sweden | BRU with SAS and Brussels Airlines, AMS with KLM, SAS and Norwegian (both about 1:30) |
| Malmö (MMX) | Southern Sweden | No direct flights to any of the five airports, compare with Copenhagen |
| Billund (BLL), Aalborg (AAL) | Jutland | AMS with KLM (about 1:15 and 1:25), no direct flights to BRU |
| Oslo (OSL) | Eastern Norway | AMS with KLM, SAS and Norwegian (about 1:50). Brussels Airlines and SAS fly to BRU (about 2:00), but July 2027 was not on sale yet |
| Bergen (BGO), Trondheim (TRD), Stavanger (SVG) | Western and central Norway | AMS with KLM (1:35-2:20), no direct flights to BRU |

We found no direct flights from any of these airports to Charleroi (CRL), Antwerp (ANR) or Eindhoven (EIN). Summer 2027 schedules are not complete yet, so check with the airline before you book.

Flight schedules change from season to season, so search all arrival airports at once and add the time and cost of getting on to Boom. A cheap ticket to Amsterdam can get expensive when you still have 138 km to go without an official bus.

## When should you fly?

It depends on whether you camp or stay in a hotel. DreamVille guests check in from Thursday at 11:00, and the festival runs Friday to Sunday. This is how 2026 worked:

1. **Thursday:** land in the morning or around lunch if you are going to DreamVille. The airport buses ran on Thursday, and The Gathering in DreamVille started at 13:30.
2. **Friday-Sunday:** festival days. The site was open 12:00-01:00 on Friday and Saturday and 12:00-00:00 on Sunday.
3. **Monday:** everyone must be out of DreamVille by 12:00. The airport buses returned on Monday, so book an afternoon flight home.

If you stay in a hotel you can land on Friday and fly home on Monday. Remember that there is no re-entry to the festival site on the same day once you leave.

Do not book flights before you have a ticket. Tickets have no right of withdrawal and cannot be switched to another weekend, so let the ticket sale decide your weekend. When the 2027 ticket release is expected is on our [Tomorrowland 2027 page](https://tomorrowland.se/en/2027/).

## From the airport to Boom

From Brussels Airport and central Brussels there were three official routes to the festival in 2026:

- **Train to Boom station.** The station is about a 20-minute walk from the festival. In 2026 the airport station fee (Diabolo) was added to the event ticket.
- **Airport bus to DreamVille.** It ran on Thursday with a Monday return in 2026, also from CRL and EIN. From Charleroi and Eindhoven the bus is the only official option we have found, so check the bus times before booking a flight there.
- **Shuttle from Brussels.** A return shuttle from Brussels to near the main entrance, booked via event-tickets.be.

With the Event Train Ticket, festival visitors got 40 percent off second class between any Belgian station and Boom, return, Thursday to Monday. The codes were in the main buyer's account: 1 per DreamVille package or day ticket and 3 per Full Madness Pass. The train ticket had to be bought in advance. There were no sales on site, and the fine for travelling without a ticket was EUR 90.

Every option is covered in [Tomorrowland shuttle: from Brussels and Antwerp to Boom](https://tomorrowland.se/en/guides/tomorrowland-shuttle/).

## How much does the trip cost with flights?

Flight prices vary too much by date and departure airport for us to give a number. The rest of the budget can be built with 2026 prices:

| Cost | 2026 price |
|---|---|
| Full Madness Pass | EUR 327 in the pre-sale, EUR 400 in the main sale |
| Cheapest DreamVille package (pass included) | EUR 410 per person in the pre-sale |
| Treasure Case fee | EUR 22 per person within the EU, EUR 31 elsewhere |
| Train in Belgium | 40 percent off with the Event Train Ticket, full fare not published |
| Return flight | Varies, search yourself |

At the ECB rate of 14 October 2026, the cheapest DreamVille package is about SEK 4,550 or NOK 4,350. Add flights and food and you have a rough budget. Every price is collected on our [prices page](https://tomorrowland.se/en/prices/).

## Hotel instead of camping?

If you fly in and want a bed, Antwerp, Brussels and Mechelen are the three cities to compare. Antwerp Central has one advantage: in 2026 extra night trains ran after each festival day, but only to Antwerp Central. From Mechelen there was a direct De Lijn bus, about 45 minutes, with extra buses after the festival days. The comparison is in [hotels near Tomorrowland](https://tomorrowland.se/en/guides/hotels-near-tomorrowland/).

## Alternatives to flying

Flying is not the only way. Every travel option is compared on our [travel page](https://tomorrowland.se/en/travel/):

- **Train** through Denmark and Germany. Routes and changes are in [train to Tomorrowland](https://tomorrowland.se/en/guides/train-to-tomorrowland/).
- **Coach** all the way from Sweden or Copenhagen, with no changes and no airline baggage rules. Coretours is one of the operators running coaches with festival pass and DreamVille accommodation, departing from Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmö and Copenhagen among others ([see Coretours](https://coretours.se/go/tomorrowland-se)).

## Practical tips for flying in

- **ID:** within Schengen, a passport or national ID card is enough for the journey. Bring the same ID your festival ticket is registered to, as the name must match.
- **Luggage and camping gear:** with Easy Tent or Magnificent Greens Tent, the tent and sleeping bag are included, so you do not need to check in camping gear.
- **Toiletries:** deodorant and perfume over 100 ml are banned on the festival site, so small bottles work both in your hand luggage and at the festival.
- **Money:** Belgium uses the euro, but on the festival site you only pay with Pearls on your bracelet.
- **Same time zone:** Belgium is in the same time zone as Scandinavia, so ticket and timetable times apply as they are.
