In 2026 festival tickets came with an Event Train Ticket at 40% off from any Belgian station. There was also a Brussels shuttle, airport buses to DreamVille, a direct bus from Mechelen and extra night trains to Antwerp. ## How do you get to Tomorrowland from Brussels? From Brussels, the train to Boom station is the simplest option, followed by a walk of about 20 minutes to the festival site. Tomorrowland's own travel page described the station in 2026 as "just a 20-minute walk to the festival site". With the Event Train Ticket you got 40% off in second class from any Belgian station, which includes the Brussels stations. The other option is the Brussels shuttle. In 2026 it ran return trips from Brussels to near the main entrance and was booked in advance via event-tickets.be. The shuttle makes sense if you stay in a Brussels hotel, because the extra night trains after the festival only go to Antwerp. If you land at Brussels Airport (BRU), about 22 km as the crow flies from Boom, you have two routes: - The train from the airport to Boom. The Diabolo fee, the airport station supplement, was added to the event ticket in 2026. - The airport bus straight to DreamVille on Thursday, returning on Monday. This one suits campers. ## How do you get to Tomorrowland from Antwerp? From Antwerp you take the train to Boom station and walk the last part. Antwerpen-Centraal is about 14.5 km as the crow flies from the festival and was the only station with extra night trains back after each festival day in 2026. That makes Antwerp the most practical city to stay in if you want to stay until closing, which was 01:00 on Friday and Saturday and 00:00 on Sunday in 2026. Antwerp Airport (ANR) is even closer, about 12.7 km, but is not mentioned in the festival's travel information. So do not count on any official transport from there. ## How do you get there from Mechelen? From Mechelen a direct De Lijn bus ran to the festival, about 45 minutes according to Tomorrowland's 2026 travel page. Extra buses were added after the festival days, so getting back late is not a problem. Mechelen sits between Antwerp and Brussels and is a calmer option if you want a hotel without the big city. ## What are all the ways to get to Boom? The table shows the official ways to reach the festival or DreamVille in 2026, where they ran from and how they were booked: | Option | From | To | Booking in 2026 | |---|---|---|---| | Train with Event Train Ticket | Any Belgian station | Boom station | Discount code in your account, on sale from 1 July 10:00 | | Extra night trains | Boom | Antwerpen-Centraal | After each festival day | | Brussels shuttle | Brussels | Near the main entrance | event-tickets.be | | City Shuttles | Several Belgian cities, Breda, Eindhoven, Maastricht | The festival | event-shuttle.be | | Airport bus | BRU (Thu, return Mon), CRL, EIN | DreamVille | Booking details not found | | De Lijn bus | Mechelen | The festival, about 45 min | Extra buses after the festival days | | Free bus | Boom station | DreamVille (Thu, return Mon) | Free | | Car | E19 and A12 | Parking Festival or Parking DreamVille | Parking ticket in the Add-On Sale (16 June 15:00) | By car, follow the signs for "Parking Festival" or "Parking DreamVille". There was also free Park & Bike and a Kiss & Ride for anyone being dropped off. Campervans and caravans are banned at DreamVille and in all car parks, and sleeping in your car is not allowed. ## Is there a shuttle bus to Tomorrowland? Yes, there were several shuttles in 2026: the Brussels shuttle, City Shuttles from cities in Belgium and the Netherlands, airport buses to DreamVille and a free bus from Boom station to DreamVille. All except the free bus had to be booked in advance. Note that the airport buses and the free bus went to DreamVille, not to the main festival entrance, and were tied to arriving on Thursday and leaving on Monday. If you stay in a hotel, the train or the Brussels shuttle usually fits better. ## How does the Event Train Ticket work? The Event Train Ticket is the train discount to Boom that comes with your festival ticket. This is how it worked in 2026: 1. Find the codes. The discount codes were in the main buyer's Tomorrowland account: one code per Day Pass or DreamVille package and three codes per Full Madness Pass. 2. Get your ticket in time. Sales opened on 1 July 2026 at 10:00, and the ticket had to be sorted in advance. 3. Travel second class. The discount was 40% from any Belgian station to Boom and back, Thursday to Monday. 4. Have the ticket ready. There were no sales on site, and "No ticket = EUR 90 fine" (about SEK 1,000 or NOK 950). Regular train fares and exact journey times between Brussels, Antwerp and Boom are not in our verified data, so check the Belgian railway journey planner before you travel. ## Which route suits you? It depends on where you stay and how you get to Belgium: - Camping in DreamVille and flying into BRU: the airport bus on Thursday, or the train to Boom and the free bus to DreamVille. - Landing at Charleroi or Eindhoven: the airport bus to DreamVille. - Hotel in Antwerp: the train to Boom and the night train back. - Hotel in Brussels: the Brussels shuttle, or the train if you leave early. - Hotel in Mechelen: the De Lijn bus, about 45 minutes. - Driving: a parking ticket from the Add-On Sale and the signs from the E19 or A12. - Skipping the last leg altogether: a bus all the way from Scandinavia. Coretours is one of the operators running buses from Sweden to DreamVille, see [coretours.se](https://coretours.se/go/tomorrowland-se), and more are listed on our [bus to Tomorrowland](https://tomorrowland.se/en/travel/bus/) page. How to get from Scandinavia to Belgium in the first place is compared in [flying to Tomorrowland](https://tomorrowland.se/en/guides/flights-to-tomorrowland/) and [train to Tomorrowland](https://tomorrowland.se/en/guides/train-to-tomorrowland/). All travel options side by side are in [how to get to Tomorrowland](https://tomorrowland.se/en/travel/). ## Practical tips for the last leg - Check your entrance. DreamVille has two entrances: entrance 1 on Nachtegaalstraat in Boom (Montagoe, Easy Tent, Camp2Camp, Friendship Garden) and entrance 2 on Rumstsestraat in Rumst (Magnificent Greens). Where they are is shown in [where is Tomorrowland](https://tomorrowland.se/en/guides/where-is-tomorrowland/). - Keep tickets on your phone. Train and shuttle tickets must be sorted before you travel, and mobile data in Belgium normally works just as it does at home on Scandinavian plans under EU and EEA roaming rules. - Learn the station name. Signs are in Dutch, but the station is simply called Boom. - Plan the way back. The festival closed at 01:00 on Friday and Saturday in 2026, and the night trains only went to Antwerpen-Centraal. - Pack light for the walk. It is about 20 minutes on foot from Boom station, and with a tent and luggage it feels longer. ## Frequently asked questions ### How to get to Tomorrowland from Brussels?
