some question about qlimax :)

Hey mate, Id say get there for about 8pm latest, obviously the que is huge

Yeah theres a Q-dance store in there, and yup, its hard to buy stuff The woman I was trying to buy a tshirt off didn't understand me when I asked for a Qlimax T-Shirt... So I ended up with a wristband instead lol

Alcohol was about 3euros for a small cup, and water was 5euros for a bottle, absolute joke! But they know you will pay the price they name I guess..

hii, my first qlimax is this year.
what the recommend hour to show up on the waiting line? how much time before the event start?
also i guess there will be a q-dance store in it, is it hard to buy item and staff? well, a lot of people are gonna be there.
and what is the price of the alcho?

any other tips would be helpfull

Be there at 20:00 and you wont have to wait very long. The gate opens at about 21:10. The que just gets longer all the evening till about 23:00. The event itself, the opening, is allways at about 22:00 / 22:30.

Yes, there is allways a store in which you can buy stuff. I think Tony above was helped by a girl with the brains of a fish finger, almost everyone understands english en its not hard at all to buy something.

I don't know exaclty about the prices, but i remember buying 4 tokens for 10 euro's. Beer is one, water is two (bottle).

Don't worry about the lockers, there are more than enough. It will cost you about 6 euro's + 5 euro's bail. You'll get that back when you turn in your key.

And a good tip? If you plan to drink water, like i do, bring yourself a cocacola bottlecap. The bottles are allways given to you without a bottlecap, so if you do have one on you, you can put that one on the bottle and refill it at the restrooms all night long. It saves you 5 euro's everytime you are thirsty

thx a lot for your replay.
about this tokens.
you use them just for drink? or also the lockers and the store?
and how do u get them? u buy them on the event form a machine or what?
shall u bring low change so it will be easy to get them?

The tokens are for drinks and food only. All the rest should be paid with cash. Tokens are available at special token-stands all over the event. No machines, real people sell tokens and are able to give you change. So no need for small cash

You wait in line, go through the first entrance gate (ticketscan), buy yourself a locker and put away your stuff (you are NOT able to get back to the locker till you leave!), then go through the second gate where they search you for illegal stuff and you're in. Then a couple of dogs are likely to sniff you when you go up the stairs of the gelredome And party!

There are real dogs?

yes there are!

ok thanks!!!

thx for answer
im just wonder.
last question i hope

can i buy my self a t-shirt and then go to put my things in the locker? i probably will want to change

p.s does the people who get VIP get togther in the actual event with the people who bought normal ticket?

Like I said, that won't be possible. Once you passed the second gate after the lockers, theres no turning back! (I did manage to get back once, because I forgot to bring my earprotection with me. You might give it a try, but it would be hard to go back (stairs, lots of people, security that holds you back etc)

And yes, the VIP's and the 'regulars' are mixed, but there are some area's exclusively for VIP's. Maybe one or two decks with nice views and special bars, and there's allways a special room with other DJ's and stuff. Plus they get in faster, because they have there own entrance, but i assumed you already knew

i see,
so just to make it clear the merchandise store is after the second security and after u put away your things in the lockers ?

thats bad...

There are always 2 checkpoints. First they scan your ticket by the first checkpoint and by the second checkpoint they will check your bagage and your pockets etc.

After the second you arrive in the stadion and in the stadion you will find the lockers, bars and merchandising.

You locker is aviable any time of the party.

thank a lot im happy now
cant wait xD

No offence, but thats not true! Unless they have changed the set-up after i don't know how many years... The lockers are and for what i believe have allways been between the two gates.

You will not be able to get to the lockers again once you are in! The only time you can get back to them is when you leave.

(and yes, the merchandise store is after the second gate, at the event itself)

Correct me if i'm wrong, but the only party on which you can acces your locker at all times is Defqon.1. (talking about Q-dance events).

i hope someone else can confirm which one of the answers is correct.

The lockers are between the two checkpoints. Last year there were tall tents between the two checkpoints where the lockers stood in few rows. I didn't use them because i drove there with a group of people by bus and so i could leave all unimportant things in that bus.

you CAN NOT go back to your locker, or you can't go in again into the stadium. it was 2008 and 2009 the same. The lockers are between the first gate (ticket control) and the second gate (security control). It is only at the Gelredome (Qlimax, Hard Bass) and at the RAI (In Qontrol) that you can not go to your locker. Last year i've bought me a shirt for 2€^^ and throw it away in the gelredome and pull over my new qlimax shirt. So remember for the 27th: NO CHANCE to go to your locker, only when you leave the party in the morning, you will.
