How to get to Tomorrowland
Short answer
From Scandinavia you reach Tomorrowland in Boom by bus, plane, train or car. The nearest major airport is Brussels Airport (BRU), about 22 km in a straight line from the festival, with trains to Boom and an airport bus to DreamVille. Coach trips from Sweden go all the way, and drivers need a parking ticket from Tomorrowland's Add-On Sale.

How do you get to Tomorrowland from Scandinavia?
Tomorrowland Belgium is in Boom, between Antwerp and Brussels, and from Scandinavia there are four realistic ways to get there. This is how they compare:
| Way to travel | How it works | Changes | Suits you if you |
|---|---|---|---|
| Coach with a tour operator | From a stop in Sweden all the way to the festival | None | Want no planning and will stay in DreamVille |
| Flight + train or bus | Fly to Brussels, Charleroi, Eindhoven or Amsterdam, then train or airport bus | 1-2 | Want the shortest journey |
| Train all the way | Rail through Denmark and Germany, then a Belgian train to Boom | Several | Want to avoid flying |
| Car | Drive yourself and park with a ticket from the Add-On Sale | None | Are a group sharing a car with lots of luggage |
Whatever you choose, the ID rule is the same: the name on your festival ticket must match your ID, and inside Schengen a passport or national ID card is enough for the trip. Copies of ID are not accepted at the entrance.
Bus to Tomorrowland
The coach is the only public transport option from Sweden all the way to the festival without changing. In 2026 Coretours ran coaches from Stockholm via Jönköping, Gothenburg, Helsingborg, Malmö and Copenhagen Airport (Kastrup), and on Weekend 1 the coach also stopped in Varberg and Halmstad. It left Stockholm at 07:00 and Kastrup at 21:00, and arrival in Boom is usually between 07:00 and 14:00.
Coretours’ packages included the return coach trip, a Full Madness Pass and DreamVille accommodation. Trips for 2027 have not been published yet. All the stops and times, plus other ways to travel by bus, are on Bus to Tomorrowland. More about Coretours’ trips is at coretours.se.
Flying to Tomorrowland
For most people who fly, Brussels Airport (BRU) is the easiest choice. It is about 22 km from the festival in a straight line, and in 2026 there was official onward transport by both train and bus. Compare departures from Stockholm Arlanda, Gothenburg, Malmö, Copenhagen, Oslo, Bergen or Trondheim to the airports below.
| Airport | Straight line to Boom | Official transport 2026 |
|---|---|---|
| Antwerp (ANR) | about 13 km | No official information |

| Charleroi (CRL) | about 70 km | Airport bus to DreamVille |
| Eindhoven (EIN) | about 80 km | Airport bus to DreamVille |

If you take the train from Brussels Airport, a station fee, the Diabolo fee, is added to the ticket. The distances are straight-line distances, not driving distances. More on airports and timing in Flying to Tomorrowland.
Train to Tomorrowland
Boom has its own train station, about a 20-minute walk from the festival site. In 2026 a free bus ran from Boom station to DreamVille on Thursday, returning on Monday.
The 2026 Event Train Ticket gave 40% off second-class travel from any Belgian station to Boom and back, Thursday to Monday:
- The discount codes are in the main buyer’s Tomorrowland account: one code per Day Pass or DreamVille package, three per Full Madness Pass.
- The tickets went on sale on 1 July 2026 at 10:00.
- Get your ticket in advance. Nothing is sold on site, and travelling without a ticket means a 90-euro fine.
- Extra night trains run after each festival day, but only to Antwerpen-Centraal.
Going by rail all the way from Scandinavia means several changes through Denmark and Germany before you reach Belgium. The routes that work are covered in Train to Tomorrowland.

What to keep in mind before the trip
A few things apply however you travel:
- Belgium is in the same time zone as Sweden, Norway and Denmark, so every time on Tomorrowland’s pages is also your home time.
- The festival site is cashless. You pay with Pearls on your bracelet, see the Pearls page.
- Pack for both sun and rain. July has 14.3 days with precipitation on average at the KMI station in Uccle near Brussels (1991-2020 normal). Everything you need is on the packing list.
- Look at the whole cost. Ticket, accommodation, travel and Pearls are added up on How much does Tomorrowland cost?, and the package builder makes your own budget.
