Updated practical information P6 Saturday ticket
We have been closely monitoring the festival grounds, campsites and parking lots over the past few weeks due to the exceptionally heavy rainfall of late. Where necessary, we have taken measures. Over the past few days we have done everything we can to get the parking lot in order for next Saturday but we did not succeed. Everything seemed to be fine but after Tuesday night’s rain and on top of with rain all through Friday, it is no longer possible to park on this part of P6.
We did manage to find alternative parking. This means that you can park with your purchased parking ticket, but at a slightly further location than previously thought. In Heerlen, we have set up a parking lot called P5 Avantis. This lot is about 7 kilometers away from the festival site. From the parking lot there will be free shuttle buses to and from the festival site.
If you are able to travel by public transport, use the Kiss & Ride or carpool with other visitors, please help us and other visitors.
We understand that this is a setback but hope you have understanding for this exceptional situation. We would like to thank you for your cooperation and together we will make it a fantastic Pinkpop day.
See you in Landgraaf!

Shuttle buses
For those with a valid P6 Saturday ticket, shuttle buses will run between the shuttle bus stop from the Avantis parking lot to the festival site (and back) from 11:00 am to 2:00 am. So don’t come before 11:00 am.
FAQ
Can I just use my P5 / 6 Sunday ticket?
As far as we estimate now, we think so since the P6 Saturday section is a physically different piece of land than the P5/6 Sunday section. But keep an eye on the website for the latest news.
Are the shuttle buses free?
Yes, the shuttle buses are free if you have a valid P6 Saturday ticket.
When do the shuttle buses run?
The shuttle buses will run from 11 a.m. until about 2 a.m.
When does the last shuttle bus go to the grounds?
The shuttle buses will run until 02:00.
Are there enough shuttle buses available?
There are plenty of shuttle buses to take everyone to and from the festival grounds. You may have to wait a little longer than you are used to.
I have a P3 ticket, can I just park in the purchased spot?
Yes, these are still valid. This parking lot is in an area which is mostly paved. For practical information we refer you to our website. This type of ticket is no longer available because it is sold out.
I have a P8 ticket, can I just park in the purchased spot?
Yes, these are still valid. This parking lot is in an area which is mostly paved. For practical information we refer you to our website. This type of ticket is no longer available because it is sold out.
I have a P9 ticket, can I just park in the purchased spot?
Yes, these are still valid. This parking lot is in an area which is mostly paved. For practical information we refer you to our website. This type of ticket is no longer available because it is sold out.
Can’t you make sure that the terrain is accessible by laying driving plates?
We have put down a lot of extra driving plates over the past few days but that was not sufficient to ensure that P6 Saturday is suitable for parking. We looked at it with several experts but we see no solution other than to close the parking lot.
Can I get my money back from the parking ticket?
No, because we have arranged alternative parking, it is not possible to ask for a refund.
If I no longer want to go to Pinkpop because of this, can I get my money back?
No that’s not possible, unfortunately.
Does it make sense to try to get to P5/Landgraaf by car without a valid parking ticket?
There is no point in driving your car to Landgraaf without a valid parking ticket, you will be turned away. In addition, do not park wildly in and/or around the neighborhoods and/or streets of Landgraaf. Various agencies will monitor this and act if necessary. Please help us by ensuring the accessibility and accessibility of emergency services.
Why wasn’t an alternative arranged for the weekend ticket with shuttle buses to and from the festival grounds?
We started looking for an alternative parking lot for P5 after the heavy rain but the alternative came too late for the weekend visitors. Fortunately, we managed to arrange a replacement site and buses for Saturday.
