4 years in a row!

The Vierdaagsefeesten wristband was launched in 2022, and it was an instant hit. Since then, many partygoers have enjoyed the benefits it offers: seven days of unlimited access to all restrooms in the city center, the ability to reveal a ‘Talk to me’ message with a simple twist of the band to show you're open to meeting new people, and daily access to an exclusive wristband program.

More toilets, fewer queues.

With the wristband, visitors get seven days of unlimited access to restrooms in the city center. This year, we’re expanding the facilities once again, adding 150 extra toilets.

Thanks to the growing number of wristband users, who no longer need to pay per toilet visit—lines are shorter and the flow of visitors is much smoother. And for the third year in a row, several indoor venues are also participating in the wristband system.

Talk to me: from stranger to friend, or maybe more.

Flip your wristband to ‘Talk to me’. Turn your wristband inside out to reveal the words ‘Talk to me’—a simple signal to let others know you’re open to a chat.

Send in your shout-out and meet up
Looking for a festival buddy, a dance partner, or hoping to reconnect with that one fun person from last night? Every day during the festival, you can submit a shout-out via our Instagram. We’ll share a selection of these messages daily to help visitors find each other.

Exclusive wristband program

Your wristband unlocks more than restrooms, it gives you access to exclusive experiences during the Vierdaagsefeesten. Each day, wristband holders can enjoy a special surprise program at changing locations in the city center, from 2:00 PM to 9:00 PM.

This year’s program includes:

Saturday, July 12 – Start the party in style by customizing your outfit at the Naaistreek booth on the Ramblas.
Sunday, July 13 – Need a breather from the buzzing crowds? Visit the pop-up Urban Food Forest from Vergroen at the Valkhof Festival – Garden Stage and mix your very own Urban Forest Cocktail.
Monday, July 14 – Dancing works up an appetite! At the Sustainable Department Store on Burchtstraat, you can try the ‘Broodje Nimma’: a tasty, healthy, and locally-made lunch.
Tuesday, July 15 – On the beach of Stadseiland Stek, join a talented sand artist to create your own sand sculpture.
Wednesday, July 16 – Kaaij Hoog delivers sparkle and fun with drag queen Vanessa Verdura and her glitter team. Get glammed up with glitter, makeup, and good vibes.
Thursday, July 17 – A toilet break boring? Not at De Bastei museum! On Thursday, relieve yourself in style with ‘Wildplassen’, a quirky mini-theatre experience among the animals (between 2:00 PM and 9:00 PM). Plus, wristband holders get free museum entry starting at 10:00 AM.
Friday, July 18 – Day 7 is all about winding down. At De Kaaij, Dansage Flow offers a unique blend of music and chair massage. With headphones, you'll experience deep relaxation—just what you need after six days of partying.
