Liquicity Festival 2024

[odd magnet]

I mean you do you but slashing a tent takes less time than opening the zipper

lol throwback to last year when the annoying camp next to us took my chair and then lied and said it was theirs 🤣 @fringe pier

[mighty willow]

Lmao that was really weird

[rough pendant]

i really didnt like the people next to us

doing that kinda shit

and leaving an insane amount of trash when they left

[sonic zinc]

Bruh yes

[full sonnet]

should have taken it back 🪿 🔪

festival warfare

[odd magnet]

lol ofc I did

[full sonnet]

oh lmao

did they just concede?

[odd magnet]

they got bit aggy since they were off their heads but Rob calmed the situation down 😄

[odd magnet]

blasting psytrance at 5am

[full sonnet]

bruh

[mighty willow]

This is the worst

[full sonnet]

not even drum and bass

😐

[odd magnet]

honestly I don't want to hear anything at 5am

[jaunty pawn]

oh shit, happy cakeday! @full sonnet

[odd magnet]

the only thing I want to hear is The Office in my headphones to fall asleep to

[jaunty pawn]

straight up watched your name change colours lol

[full sonnet]

oh yo

what

sick!!

8 years ago

[odd magnet]

yayy happy cakeday

[mighty willow]

Happy cake day 🎉 🎂

[full sonnet]

or wait no 7 right

8 years hahahaha

[mighty willow]

2016 ye

[full sonnet]

i briefly forgot it's 2024

[rough pendant]

[mighty willow]

Don't remind me

[full sonnet]

2007 was three years ago

[mighty willow]

Exactly

[tender cairn]

Honestly feel like there were some weird characters last year. Hopefully a nicer crowd this year

[tired garnet]

Sorry I'll stay home

[tender cairn]

Mashallah

[verbal flame]

People completely ignoring the night silence; which actually was there 2am-9am for the whole campsite according to camping regulations (might be the German me keeping thought of stuff like that tho :3 )

[mighty willow]

Trust me, there are germans who give a shit about the night silence

[sand maple]

Just common decency really. Night rest is important

[verbal flame]

Welp, guess every country has shitty people

[verbal flame]

If that would be enough a lot of festivals would not offer dedicated silent areas

I will always pay for a silent camping if available; I thought Liquicity was fine because of the night silence.

….i was disappointed.
One neighboring tent doing music until 4am and another one starting at 6am.

[wild pagoda]

Thank god

[tired garnet]

I can still flame your ass from here

[distant fog]

Hello, can food and drinks be brought into the camping area?

Are there supermarkets nearby where to buy?

[fast lark]

mans so tall we can point and laugh from here?

[tired garnet]

attack on titan lookin ass

[fast lark]

building a wall around the campsite to keep him out

[cerulean ember]

:bigdog:

[cerulean osprey]

unless the rules have changed since last year, you can into the camping area, just not onto the main festival site! there are supermarkets in Alkmaar about 10 mins walk at most from the train station

[wild pagoda]

Call me the colossal titan the way I destroy your walls

[proper siren]

This is much less lethal than my more american method

[shrewd horizon]

I asked about the tent size because I'm quite tall, this was their reply. Maybe it'll help you 😊

[mighty willow]

So too small for @wild pagoda

[sand maple]

Call me Armored cause I'm boutta bust down your gate

[fast lark]

you've already been an illegal alien here once, don't climb our wall again

[shrewd horizon]

Probably. I mean, it seems they have the biggest alphabet, so they can't possible fit all those letters in there

[dusky fjord]

I've just got a message saying I have to 'personalise' my ticket by assigning it to someone to view it. I can assign it to myself or someone else. It looks very very legit and has all my details pre-populated - I just don't remember having to do that last year. It's fine right? I'm 99.9% sure it is.

[half grove]

I just had that too

It's just assigning the tickets to people i.e . You or a friend

[rough pendant]

yes its legit

its a thing paylogic introduced a while ago

[dusky fjord]

Cool beans - cheers.

[buoyant lintel]

Strange how they worded it as a reminder

[sand maple]

Feeling some serious FOMO 😦

[wild pagoda]

Thank god they did tbh because that's how I found out I didn't have a tent included in my order

Catch me spooning @fast lark at night

[fast lark]

only if you shower first

[mighty willow]

https://tenor.com/view/shrek-mud-shower-shrek-mud-shower-shrek-shower-gif-22792672

His kind of shower

[mint charm]

What if I got the weekend ticket and then later on got a pre pitched tent when they were available, i assume that's normal

I don't see an option to personalize the tent, but I guess not required

[half grove]

It's not the tent just the ticket I think

[mighty willow]

Yes they're separately

[mint charm]

Neat

[idle kayak]

Full lineup announcement coming tomorrow

[silk pecan]

Wait, really? 👀

[rancid sluice]

Yes really

[mighty willow]

WOAH

What year is this

[cerulean ember]

2023

[mighty willow]

Starting this week off strong

[mighty willow]

Sure

[tender cairn]

2005

[rigid breach]

2020

[tired garnet]

Either this or 2012

[sonic zinc]

Shee cant wait for the yellowstone to pop

[buoyant lintel]

Wowa already !

[mighty willow]

Stones? @fast lark

[fast lark]

do i need to start saving my kidney stones in a sock to whack people with again?

[mighty willow]

Feel free to do so, I can offer target suggestions

[rancid sluice]

Yoink

[idle kayak]

I can't actually tell who's new

[jaunty pawn]

@tired garnet IVY LAB

[rugged solstice]

o ivy lab is sick

aphrodite as well

his 2019 outro set was spot on

[jaunty pawn]

@cerulean osprey on an actual stage

[cerulean osprey]

👀

[tired garnet]

@grim holly 👀👀👀

[tender cairn]

I’m pretty sure most of wave 4 is the bottom of the lineup

[jaunty pawn]

Miesfm woo

[idle kayak]

😍😍😍😍

Also super cool that flowanastasia is on there

Forgot if she was there before, but happy either way

[mighty willow]

also @gusty carbon

this lineup is so stacked though 😭

[grim holly]

sneaky Aphrodite addition too

I'm gassed

[cerulean osprey]

so many many names I'm so excited to see!!

[mighty willow]

pls don´t choke

[wanton tangle]

outsiders are deffo

[cerulean osprey]

just not excited for the clashes

[mighty willow]

pssssshht

don´t have to worry about that until the timetables drop

[charred trellis]

Ivy Lab is the biggest W here

thats crazy

[tender cairn]

Aphrodite, Ivy Lab, The Outsiders, Arcturius, Chiccoreli, Dylan Purser, El Maria, Hidden Circuit, MiesFM, Rayven Lux and Shawiya Tribe are all Wave 4

[unkempt cloud]

dylan given a second chance

let's fuckin go

[wanton tangle]

aphrodite might be pretty sick

[cerulean osprey]

weather don't fail me now

[tired garnet]

See you there king

[odd magnet]

Alix Perez ❤️

The king returns

[stark folio]

Arcturius lets gooooooo

[mighty willow]

no u

[karmic spoke]

do we need to unprivate to enter the contest

[mighty willow]

Thinking about making an ig account just for this

[proper siren]

probably wont make it to half of these but I can dream

[wise nest]

i have to see Justin Hawkwes no matter what

[sonic zinc]

Solid choices, but missing kimyan law

And a few more

But still :D

[tired garnet]

Yea @proper siren how dar eyou have your own opinion smh

[jaunty pawn]

keeno live and kimyan law

[karmic spoke]

I have one but we have to tag the account and I don't think it will show if my account is private. Unfortunately I have 2 people who stalk me so I can't take it off private

[proper siren]

maybe.. everything is going to be vibes based and who is at what

[mighty willow]

Ugh that sucks so much 🥲

[sonic zinc]

Yeha tell him!

[bold snow]

Missing amc, gladde paling and tantrum desire

[jaunty pawn]

I'm sorry but everyone in this line up > paling

[wanton tangle]

na paling is fun

[sand maple]

What a ridiculous lineup, so stacked

[tender cairn]

Would be cool to see Tantrum Desire but I think it’s fair that the other two have a year off since they both played 2022 and 2023

[gusty carbon]

Yeah omg right! 💛

[gusty carbon]

yooo 😭💛

[gusty carbon]

Aphrodite + LTJ Bukem!

[mighty willow]

So happy for you!

[gusty carbon]

That's sweet, thank you! 🙂

[fringe pier]

nice one!

I see you grafting @gusty carbon

[mighty willow]

Don't have to be sorry for that

[shy ether]

😢 so sad no A.M.C...

[final forum]

Oh I must have gotten one of the last few phase 2 tickets. I legit bought a ticket like 40 mins before they announced this haha

[gray thorn]

Does anybody remember if they had air pumps at the camping shop last year?

[hybrid wolf]

You can get your matress blown up there yeah!

Iirc for 0,5Liq?

[gray thorn]

thank you!

[idle kayak]

taken from a hybrid minds interview

could you imagine a hybrid minds "anything goes" set on the nebula stage? ❤️

[tender cairn]

Hybrid Minds jump up throwback set

[charred trellis]

saw Hybrid Minds play a Blackout event a while back

that got pretty close i’d say

[tender cairn]

I mean they were both jump up artists before HM iirc

[idle kayak]

Yeah Sensa and Haste

[tender cairn]

Day splits just dropped

[silk pecan]

Oi 👀

[cerulean ember]

june playing friday and sat 😮

[tender cairn]

I think that might be a typo (unless things changed 😅)

[fringe pier]

Seba Saturday 😎

[proper siren]

Friday is going to go so hard actually wtf

[cerulean ember]

yeah i think im all about friday

[rancid sluice]

Friday best day

[unkempt cloud]

glad i'm coming on thursday, wow hahaha

[hard acorn]

Friday is so unfair lol

[grim holly]

please do not let gyrofield and muzz conflict

[sleek magnet]

I'm curious to see what Friday's timetable will look like. That will be running from stage to stage I guess

[grim holly]

Friday is leg day for sure

[sleek magnet]

1000%

[jaunty pawn]

Friday > Saturday > Sunday

[full sonnet]

friday is fucking stacked wtf

those clashes are going to be devastating

[sleek magnet]

That's usually the order yes

[rancid sluice]

If Gyrofield and QZB clash (which I dont think they will) Im going to sue Liquicity

[woven moat]

Looking forward to Saturday, if I don't hear afterglow I riot

[full sonnet]

no fox live this year

[sleek magnet]

Sad :/

Fox with his live band is such a vibe

[tender cairn]

Gonna play 1 bar of it, maybe 2 max

[mighty willow]

Hell yeah 😎

[odd magnet]

V excited for Alix, Enei, Bukem, Ama, HM, Marky, Kanine, QZB, and Seba

💃

[full sonnet]

fox live at festival last year was insane

[jaunty pawn]

I'm honestly the most hyped for Ivy Lab

for whatever reason

[odd magnet]

Yeh Ivy as well

[mighty willow]

Don't jinx it

[odd magnet]

I don't think they will, probs will both be at Lunar

[rancid sluice]

My thought exactly

[jaunty pawn]

also gyrofield

[woven moat]

I'll take what I can get

[jaunty pawn]

third time is the charm

[mighty willow]

Ooh yes LTJ BUKEM 🔥

[rancid sluice]

Another year of camping the Lunar

[tender cairn]

I definitely wanna spend more time at Solar this year, definitely neglected that last year

[median glacier]

Liquicity tier assignment on posters is always so funny

[cerulean ember]

I wanna spend more time with the homies this year too

[median glacier]

How are Aphrodite and LSB not at least the same tier

[rancid sluice]

Maybe the tiers are for how much money the artist asks

[full sonnet]

next year auris headliner

[verbal flame]

How‘s Bloooooooooom not headliner?

[rancid sluice]

@median glacier try asking 2k and see how high you end up next time

[cerulean ember]

2k sounds cheap

[full sonnet]

2.1k

[cerulean ember]

more like it

[tender cairn]

How is Auris not next to Sub Focus?

[unkempt cloud]

if fox and gyro clash i will be DEVASTATED

[mighty willow]

Ground Crew is S tier

[median glacier]

I wasn't talking about myself, I'm just happy my name is on there haha

[unkempt cloud]

americans can only get so much fox let alone gyrofield

[tender cairn]

I know, I was still making the claim though

[cerulean ember]

i think more gyrofield than fox yeah?

idk

[unkempt cloud]

fox happens at random pretty much hahaha

idk of gyrofield doing much US stuff

[rancid sluice]

Even in the NL we dont get Gyrofield that much

[cerulean ember]

I'm also pretty exclusive to the NL

[rancid sluice]

Ive flown to Switzerland twice for QZB

[feral sandal]

THANKS GOD Sub Focus not the same day than Andromedik

[fringe pier]

thought you were over this

[median glacier]

I just find it interesting

[fringe pier]

I find you interesting

[median glacier]

that's sweet

[rancid sluice]

Put a lil bet in #updates

[fringe pier]

I saw that

Saturday will always sell out first surely

Don't need to take annual leave

and a day after to rest before work

[mighty willow]

Definitely worth the trip down there

[mighty willow]

Gonna ask for 1 1/2 weeks off around the festival

[proper siren]

Alix Perez, Gyrofield, QZB, Monrroe, Telomic, Auris, Styke, Dustkey, and MiesFM

friday for me

theres no way I can see them all

but fuck if I wont die trying

[rough pendant]

whole weekend for me

cus i get to see all of you ❤️

[cerulean osprey]

Sunday is the clear winner for me

[odd magnet]

You and me both 🤝

[rancid sluice]

@mighty willow dont remove your vote from the update thing cause 2 will disappear

[proper siren]

@rancid sluice the boots came in today. Time to break them in 😁

[mighty willow]

Based

[rancid sluice]

Praying for your heels

[proper siren]

me too honestly 😭

[mighty willow]

🫡

[rugged solstice]

if x clashes with y, I will z

[mighty willow]

But will you a?

[cerulean osprey]

call me friday the way she sub on my fo till i cus

[proper siren]

Im gonna a all over the place if I can b

[cerulean osprey]

sir this is wendy’s

[rugged solstice]

may b

[cerulean osprey]

honestly tho there so many names across the weekend I’m so hyped to see

Friday is shaping up to be the best though fr

Friday for me last year was a winner tbf

before windquicity

[tender cairn]

You sure about that?

All liquid acts, so they might not clash (not saying that they won’t though)

[proper siren]

Yeah its definitely very Lunar campy vibes

so maybe

[silk walrus]

Sometimes artists ask (or demand) a higher placing on the lineup afaik

Interested to see if they will place basstripper, mozey and imanu all on Lunar

[fast lark]

mad-gf-but-won't-tell-why energy here

[half grove]

Is there a particular difference between the stages?

[grim holly]

size, lighting and amount of speakers yeah

[cerulean ember]

And djs

[grim holly]

Galaxy (main stage) has been a giant tent the last few years and is the biggest, usually has the main headliner dancefloor DJs
Solar has some of those guys too, some of them may not draw as big of a crowd and is also a tent
Lunar is usually where the liquid, deep and techy stuff is, usually a long and narrow tent-like setup

check some of the sets from previous years to get a feel

and nebula is where shenanigans occur

[proper siren]

I always feel like Solar is for that classic liquicity sound

[grim holly]

that's a good way to put it

[wanton tangle]

DAY SPLITS

[mighty willow]

are you already onto the timetable guessing again?

[wanton tangle]

you bet

[wild pagoda]

My mom is seriously considering coming to festival this year

[proper siren]

Im coming for your mom

[wild pagoda]

brb screenshotting and sending to my dad

[proper siren]

not a stepdad but the dad that stepped up

[wild pagoda]

prepare to be bonked

[proper siren]

actually please do that would be so fucking funny

[wild pagoda]

DONE

[tired garnet]

Please, maybe she can scold you into showering

[rancid sluice]

||Just go for his dad too|| @proper siren

[proper siren]

TRUEEEEEEEEE

[tired garnet]

Gonna break the kartent from the inside out this time

[proper siren]

You ever see those machines that extract the juice from sugar cane? Tell your dad thats what Im going to do to him

[wild pagoda]

i hereby ban you from the west coast

[proper siren]

[digital spruce]

my goal is to notttt burn myself out by going too hard on Friday
it's gonna be a struggle tho. I've never been in the same room as the word 'chill' 🫠

[wanton tangle]

doing it now and i've actually no idea for sunday 😭

[cerulean osprey]

same with my parents

[wise nest]

Friday is looking sooo good i am so scared for the choices i will have to make😩

I want to see Sub Focus, Fox, Kanine, Metrik & ekko&sidetrack but they are mostly all very big artists so i would not be surprised if some play at the same time to avoid crowding in 1 stage

[verbal flame]

They deffo will

[digital spruce]

felt. last year I think on Saturday? I ended up just like... camping out at Solar.

[verbal flame]

Just to spread crowds a little

[wise nest]

after listening lexerus his set on yt I have to admit that he also became one of the artists i’m looking forward too the most

[wise nest]

yeah exactly

will have to make sacrifices

[digital spruce]

sammmeeeee. walked up at the end of his set last year & my face was literally: 🤩

[wise nest]

at least i’m happy I can see Justin Hawkes 100%

Not sure how he performs live but his songs are soo good

[digital spruce]

he's one of the ones I might have to sacrifice cuz he's coming back to my city on tour 😭 but don't wanna

[mighty willow]

The trick is to chill out before after the festival and take a home vacation to recover from the festival

[verbal flame]

Back to work on Wednesday after the festival……. Yep 👍

EDIT: checked my vacay plan again and I have Tuesday off as well

[jaunty pawn]

I still have the rest of the week off

luckily

[mighty willow]

Sacrifice like with a fire and circle pit?

[silk pecan]

Isn't that the standard? 👀

[verbal flame]

Gimme more vacation days please 🙃

[jaunty pawn]

I do have some to spare tbh

[mighty willow]

Went back to work on the day after I arrived home last year. Was not ready for anything lmao

[digital spruce]

that's my plan for the eclipse actually, not liq this year

[verbal flame]

I‘ll buy them off you

[jaunty pawn]

5 weeks in a couple of weeks, and then 4 weeks in the summer split in two

[verbal flame]

Wtf

[mighty willow]

https://tenor.com/view/powerpuffpentagram-cult-ritual-gif-13161196

[verbal flame]

How does one have to much vacation time

[digital spruce]

every time I get dopamine drop I only fight it by going back to work 😅 so this year I'm going back kinda fast

[jaunty pawn]

I have some left over time off from the last five years of work

[verbal flame]

Good thing I work a job where no preparation is needed 😅

[verbal flame]

Ah yeah nope, went to festivals last year so no leftover time…. 😬

[silk pecan]

[mighty willow]

Yeee I remember

[jaunty pawn]

it's like time off we gain from the work days being longer than before or something

I have another 200 hours

after the 300 I am using in a couple of weeks

[proper siren]

thats so many hours

[mighty willow]

I wanna take my time this year and not throwing myself back at work right away

[verbal flame]

Oh u just mean overtime?

[proper siren]

I dont think I could dream of seeing such hours

[median glacier]

I'm seriously considering coming to your mom this year

[jaunty pawn]

no

[verbal flame]

….then I don‘t get it

[jaunty pawn]

it's like a specific thing in finland

[verbal flame]

What do you mean then by „work days being longer than before“?

[buoyant lintel]

Fuck me what have i woken up to. More clash news

[jaunty pawn]

so we have time off mandated by law and general work contracts but also, time off that is supposed to balance the average time worked in a year from 40hours/week to 36.5 and that time is gained as paid time off

mixed a few things together that kinda don't have anything to do with each other

[verbal flame]

…..so in other words: u work 36.5h per week by law and all of the time on top of that u can take as paid time off?

[jaunty pawn]

kinda

[verbal flame]

Okay, that’s no different to overtime

[jaunty pawn]

but I get overtime back as just money

[verbal flame]

Ahhhhh, okay.
I can either have my overtime payed out or take the time off

[digital spruce]

yeh my job's kinda similar. we accrue pto in 3 different categories, then overtime is a different thing that we get 1.5x the cost of our hourly for.

[buoyant lintel]

Wowowow they did a really good job of spreading the load through the 3 days. Clashes could be a lot worse

[jaunty pawn]

pretty much that

[digital spruce]

I get it. I had a similar thing happen to me.
so much of my pto had to be burnt out over the course of 2023 because I had saved so much of it from when I was a baby trainee. it was either I use it, or they took it away from me lmao

[mighty willow]

https://tenor.com/view/first-time-meme-first-time-the-ballad-of-buster-scruggs-gif-24656975

[verbal flame]

If I take the time I get 1 day for 8 (7.98)hrs of overtime but if I do payout I get a 40% bonus on top

[jaunty pawn]

but basically I've had one or two days off a month that I haven't used over almost 6 years, that doesn't time out either, so I've had like 7000€ worth of paid time off just sitting there waiting

[buoyant lintel]

7am here

All the news comes out then I’ve to try catch up before work ahaha

[mighty willow]

I meant that more like first time clash news.
May I ask where you are from?

[jaunty pawn]

https://tenor.com/view/land-down-under-men-at-work-bottals-druming-gif-22688759

[verbal flame]

But yeah having a 36.5h work week explains why you have to much time off.
For me it’s 39.97hrs a week (don‘t as why) by contract so I just get less overtime accounted.
Secondly i am not allowed to take overtime vacation May-September so I have to use my regular vacay days for that

[buoyant lintel]

Oh i had defqon lineup released today then this as well. It’s been a morning

From Adelaide straya

[rough pendant]

why

[full sonnet]

obligatory "liquicity did a good job spreading their load"

[digital spruce]

you're in the future
hello from yesterday

[buoyant lintel]

[mighty willow]

https://tenor.com/view/were-sending-you-back-to-the-future-lets-go-time-travel-get-back-gif-16482361

[buoyant lintel]

It’s a good day to be had. Youz are gonna enjoy it

[mighty willow]

Oooh you're also going to defqon?

[buoyant lintel]

I’ve 3 month in eu going to plenty of fests

Sailweek, defqon, liq, tml, let it roll, decibel, ml

[mighty willow]

Woah

Sounds like hell of a trip

[buoyant lintel]

Liq lookin like the major highlight tho. These names on friday are

[tender cairn]

lmk if she wants backstage 😉

[buoyant lintel]

Ahww a mams comin to a fest is such quality

[verbal flame]

Why to what? There were multiple statements in that paragraph 🙈😅

[rough pendant]

to the thing you said "dont asky why" about, duh

[verbal flame]

Oh.
It’s actually pretty simple.
So in my work sector work time is usually measured in hours per month, not per week.
40hrs a week equal to 174hrs a month.
My contract says 173hrs a month, hence why it’s this weird 39.smth hours a week

[rough pendant]

oh

[idle kayak]

174h a month

[rough pendant]

yeah its so standard that i decided to get a tattoo of it

https://tenor.com/view/joke-not-getting-the-joke-flew-over-your-head-stickman-gif-16997031

my POV

[sonic zinc]

Yeah same, love working 174 hours so much so I got the tat

[strange flicker]

friday gang ayeeeeeeeee

dont worry about clashes - that's not what you're going to remember in a few years anyway. it's the good vibes you caught during the whole weekend

[opaque hawk]

im so excited seeing the lineups each day!

[final forum]

Lexerus sets are always great, loved his 2022 set especially

[smoky juniper]

I have to buy several insoles for my shoes. They will be flat in no time

[mighty willow]

One pair per set?

[smoky juniper]

This

[silk pecan]

That's actually something I should add to my list of things to get for liq 😄

[slender spruce]

had to google what insoles are because english is not my first language but oh damn i should buy those as well

because i already know that i will need them a lot

[mighty willow]

Your feet will thank you

[buoyant lintel]

ultraboosts

[smoky juniper]

Also bring Magnesium with you to avoid cramps 🙂

[slender spruce]

oh yeah that is also must have

[smoky juniper]

Don’t forget the earplugs when you take your flight!

[silk pecan]

🫶 yes! I've been using them throughout the year and it's a huge lifesaver

Dunno how I could live without them 😆

[smoky juniper]

Happy to hear!

[buoyant lintel]

got myself a pair of custom sleeping earplugs a while ago and my god they are so good. can really hear your own thoughts

[silk pecan]

Ear plugs for sleep are also good. Nat bought me earplugs for pressure balancing during take off and landing because otherwise it causes severe pain in my ears. Didn't know they existed until last year and it literally change flights from being stressful to a pleasant activity

As I said, life saver!

[buoyant lintel]

Oo this reminds me, need a re-fitting of my fest plugs i think. They gettin loose

[verbal flame]

Make sure to smuggle them in because nutritional supplements are a nono 🙃

For legal reasons: don’t bring those at all!

[smoky juniper]

Better keep an eye on that. Last year I had serious problems with hearing after the fest although protecting my ears.

[smoky juniper]

Oh boy 🥹 I’ll just drink the mix then before entering the fest. Princess booked a hotel again

[verbal flame]

Hotel sounds nice 👀

But also not so nice to have to leave every night

[smoky juniper]

Yeah, last year it was a ride for like 15 mins by car. So this year I booked something 5 mins by bicycle. And if it really comes to the point I would like to stay at the campsite I’m sure someone will grant me asylum

[mighty willow]

https://tenor.com/view/gg-gif-27092095

Always welcome to chill out at the camp

[smoky juniper]

Same as last year 🧡

But this year hopefully a bit more often 😄

[mighty willow]

Yes

[median glacier]

hey I was first

[tender cairn]

Why are we competing when we could collaborate?

[median glacier]

True

The tower bridge wasn't built in a day

Or whatever that saying is

[tender cairn]

The Eiffel Tower certainly wasn’t

[odd magnet]

Nah 💀

[fast lark]

[gusty carbon]

Same!!

[mighty willow]

Only 108 days left @fast lark

[summer yarrow]

Hello friends, I am looking for someone who may be able to help me. I'm traveling to the festival alone this year. I'm mostly blind so traveling is quite difficult. I was wondering if anyone would be able to meet me in Amsterdam Central and help me navigate to Alkmaar and back again. I have a spare weekend ticket for the trouble.

I'll be coming in on the Thursday and leaving on the Monday

And don't worry you don't have to associate with me at the festival

[rancid sluice]

Im not travelling through Amsterdam otherwise I wouldve loved to travel with you

[proper siren]

I can help out if you'd like. I should be staying close to Central station

[summer yarrow]

Thank you so much

[proper siren]

Yeah no worries! happy to help :) we can work out the finer details and stuff closer to the event.

[proper siren]

looking at hotels for festival and this made me laugh

Ive seen prison cells with more room

[verbal flame]

Prolly 300€ per night

[proper siren]

60

but they also have a suite with a double bed and private bathroom for 68 a night so

you really gotta be pinching pennies

its right by amsterdam sloterdijk station so its not bad

[verbal flame]

Which, if u don‘t spend time in your room except for sleep, is okay-ish IMO

[fossil skiff]

we are going by car from Baltics, we plan to arrive to Amsterdam on Wednesday, and then go with a car to the Festival area on Thursday to camp, if you like, we can take you by car to the festival area from the city

[tender cairn]

That's 60 euros a night? What

[summer yarrow]

That's very kind of you I appreciate it. I think pandahacker and I have it sorted though.

[proper siren]

Yep!

[mighty willow]

I think it's very brave of you coming alone!
If you need any further help I'd gladly be there 😄

[summer yarrow]

Everyone is so kind thank you all

[mighty willow]

You're not telling us to avoid you, are you? 🤣

[proper siren]

lmfao I didnt even see that part

[summer yarrow]

No, not at all. I'd be happy to make some new friends

[summer yarrow]

I'll be bringing something that will help some people spot me easier

[mighty willow]

Of course!
I think there's nothing to gain out of being unkind/rude

[mighty willow]

I'll be keeping my eyes open then!

[summer yarrow]

I think you will spot me better than moost

[mighty willow]

https://tenor.com/view/erm-erm-moo-moo-erm-cow-erm-moo-cow-gif-25365076

[jaunty pawn]

don't tell me it's a whole cow

[summer yarrow]

I cannot confirm or deny it being a full cow 🦮

[summer yarrow]

https://tenor.com/view/vaca-gif-25484204

[proper siren]

does this count as herding then?

[summer yarrow]

Sure why not

[idle kayak]

Lunar stage is kinda the easiest to guess

[full sonnet]

kinda didnt expect basstripper

[tender cairn]

@proper siren how many on the Friday was that?

[full sonnet]

thought they would be on solar tbh

[idle kayak]

Yeah fair that one could've gone somewhere else, but doesn't hugely surprise me

Had serum on lunar last year after all

[full sonnet]

tbf i dont know what basstripper usually plays

but to me it feels more like "poppy jump up" rather than more tekky jump up if you get what i mean

[tender cairn]

I mean you had Document One straight up play a dancefloor set there last year

[full sonnet]

oh fr 👀

tbf i was only rlly at lunar in the mornings

[cerulean osprey]

oh shit wait 360 stage this year???

[silk pecan]

What about the description tho 👀

[tender cairn]

Wait what

[silk pecan]

Yeah, I was about to say that

[tender cairn]

I didn’t even notice that

[silk pecan]

😄

[cerulean osprey]

I'm super excited to see what that's like

[silk pecan]

Yep

[tender cairn]

Yeah that’s exciting

[cerulean osprey]

ohhhhhh just realised how sick that'll be for keeno and kimyan law live

[tender cairn]

Interesting to see how that works though, especially with artists getting from backstage to the decks

Unless it’s “360” (aka not 360 at all )

[odd magnet]

just bring back the plants and the fans 😫 idc about 360

[cerulean osprey]

there were fans last year tho no?

[odd magnet]

like 2

[cerulean osprey]

Just not on the roof

[rancid sluice]

I miss the fans so much

[wise nest]

so i guess mozey will play on Solar?

kinda fits tho

feel like the Solar stage has the most 'happy/feelgood' vibes which totally fits him

[verbal flame]

Well, walking through the crowd……? 😅
They did that for ROA last year

[tender cairn]

I’m moreso thinking about the setup from previous years and how artists can be but could definitely work like that

[wise nest]

also the 360 idea is sickk

[verbal flame]

Also SiLi not being on Lunar….🤔

[wise nest]

only problem with Lunar is the temperature

[tender cairn]

I mean the album singles so far aren’t the most Lunar-y haha

[verbal flame]

But his sets are usually very Lunar-y; last Saturday he played a lot of wiggly wobbly basslines dnb

[mighty willow]

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah
Time for lunar camping ig

[rancid sluice]

Thats fine, time to turn the Solar/Galaxy crowd into Lunar lovers

[mighty willow]

@rancid sluice i mean you already called it lmao

[wise nest]

whats the best time to leave if you want to go to the afterpary in Lunar? idm waiting for like 30min but dont want to queue much longer

[rancid sluice]

My strat is to go 30/20 minutes before the end of the last set and stand in line already. You'll get in then

[verbal flame]

Depends on the lineups kinda; but if u wanna get in safe u have to be there when lunar „day“-sets stop

[wise nest]

ahh thats doable, thanks!

[tender cairn]

I mean who’s to say that’s definitely where silent disco will be when they’re changing up the stage designs

[mighty willow]

Yeah this pretty much

[wise nest]

makes sense

[verbal flame]

Good point

[tender cairn]

I’m not saying that won’t be the case btw, just that the layout might be different this time

[rancid sluice]

What also helps is to have boobs and be cute, people will let you cut in line easier

[wise nest]

i wish hahahhaha

[verbal flame]

Alright, time to give up masculinity and grow some boobs. 🙂‍↕️

….wait-

[silk walrus]

Pretty sure they said they’re changing the lines to get in aswell. Iirc they mentioned as they got loads of feedback about it

[rancid sluice]

I have no clue how they'll do it, I dont work for them

[wise nest]

i mean if its full its full right?

at least i assume that was the reason for the lines

[brave ravine]

the 2022 design of lunar was goat

[rancid sluice]

They run out of headsets. So then they have to wait on people leaving (handing it back in) so a new person can enter

[wise nest]

ahh yeah makes sense

[tender cairn]

The sunshine during the Auris b2b Holdup set

[sonic zinc]

Line cutting was a problem. There was no line, just one big blob

[full sonnet]

solar ftw

[wise nest]

oh thats really annoying

[odd magnet]

Or just have backstage

https://tenor.com/view/taps-if-you-say-so-gif-9803186

[mighty willow]

Guess what song got dropped last Saturday

[tender cairn]

The career-ender

[rancid sluice]

Didnt have that luxury last year

[tender cairn]

I wonder whether they’ll drop Galaxy or Solar stage next. Pretty sure the last two years have been in a random order

[unkempt cloud]

tunnels

[tender cairn]

Haha each artist rises from a platform

[unkempt cloud]

yeah exactly hahaha

https://tenor.com/view/bob-esponja-calamarino-bamd-calamardo-gif-12918732

[wise nest]

OR they come down from a platform out of the roof😎

[tender cairn]

https://tenor.com/view/bachelor-rachel-skydiving-accident-matt-gif-20490574

[rugged solstice]

lunar = goated stage - change my mind

[tender cairn]

No David Guetta 😦

[rugged solstice]

guettauta here

[tender cairn]

Maybe he’ll make a special appearance for one tune

Maybe Tiesto will show up and play a Hedex tune

[rugged solstice]

I can see that

not that I want it to happen but

would be fun lmao

[rugged solstice]

with 3 rewinds as well

[cerulean osprey]

Mozey's gonna bring out Hedex and we're gonna hear "LIQUICITYYY MAKE SOME FUCKING NOIIISSEEEEEEEE"

[tender cairn]

My my my my my home is the rave

[rugged solstice]

https://tenor.com/view/wheel-up-dj-gif-22415860

[tender cairn]

Fr though, massive lineup at Lunar. I could quite happily spend my whole time at that stage

[cerulean ember]

this

[silk walrus]

Switch ✨

[idle kayak]

needs more my's

[tender cairn]

Wait

[median glacier]

do it

[tender cairn]

I’m a bit busy on the Saturday at another stage I’m afraid 😕

[median glacier]

They'll be fine without you

[tender cairn]

Idk chief, if there was a fire I’d feel responsible

Moreso guilty if I wasn’t the one causing it

[fast lark]

Did someone say fire

[grim holly]

same as long as they have fans and it doesn't get hotboxed with cigs

so glad keeno is there

[mighty willow]

No

[turbid bobcat]

i got boobs. just need to figure out how to be cute now

[proper siren]

Friday Lunar
Alix Perez
Monrroe
Gyrofield
Kimyan Law
QZB
Auris
Dustkey
Styke
Sub:liminal

[tender cairn]

Was that 1 or 2 on your list not Lunar then?

[proper siren]

oh let me check

15/30

So half is at lunar

Surprised Makto and Marky are not at lunar

[grim holly]

me too tbh

they fit the vibe perfectly

but maybe marky could draw a crowd too big for lunar

[rough pendant]

he played on the mainstage before

[mighty willow]

Sheeeeeesh

[tiny jungle]

Hey guys, heading to liquicity for the first time this summer. Going solo since a solo festival mission has been on my bucket list for a while now. Is there anything particular I should know in advance or is it all similar to other big festivals?

[tired garnet]

Nothing that I can think of from the top of my head, other than everyone being super friendly so you probably won't be solo for very long!

[tiny jungle]

Won't be a problem I reckon, I always manage to chat up mates instantly when I get to a festival haha

[odd magnet]

I think it's the perfect festival to do solo!

[fossil skiff]

so each tent has like a different vibe, is that what am i understanding from yall?

[cerulean osprey]

as in the stages? I would say yes deffo, though not like totally different from each other

[tender cairn]

I'd say on the whole: Galaxy is mainstage vibes, Solar is like feel good dancefloor and liquid (kinda sunny vibes) and Lunar is more focused on deeper sounds

Then Nebula is anything goes and Temple (yes, Temple) is full on chillout non-dance music

[opaque hawk]

@fossil skiff For nebula make sure to check the lineup generally posted outside. Some great djs show up there but you only know the lineup if you go there.

[fossil skiff]

Got it

I will check it out

Fuck im so excited

[grand badger]

Hi all, I'm getting the pop-up LiquiciTent and hoping to take it home with me but am travelling by plane. Does anyone know the diameter of the tent when it's folded down? If it's too big for airline checked luggage, I won't bother taking it from the site

[verbal flame]

That wasn’t supposed to happen originally; Nebula is supposed to be kept mostly secret

So don’t expect that to happen again this year

[tired garnet]

They announced the lineup for Nebula last year!

[verbal flame]

But only partly, right?
And not the timetable.
(Oh I right misread lineup for timetable, sorry)

[opaque hawk]

Here is hoping they do. I get not posting the lineups ahead of time but it was great at least knowing day of.

[grand fulcrum]

This is the first year they're out and I don't think I've seen this specified. Might have to get this information from someone at Liquicity who can get it measured.

[grand badger]

Okay, thank you! If I find out I'll post here incase anyone else finds it useful

[jaunty pawn]

flights got

[quasi jay]

Sorry this isn’t online yet, I’ll make sure it’s added to the website next week!

[grand badger]

Great, thanks!

[verbal flame]

This is the liquicity tent u can buy:

Because people asked a lot of questions:-)

[mighty willow]

Very spacey

[tender cairn]

Very tenty

[verbal flame]

Pictures were made on the fly so they’re not perfect; but I guess they’re good for a first impression

[sonic zinc]

Thanks for sharing

[mighty willow]

Sign up for volunteering started 👀

[wise nest]

yeah last year I accidentally went to fox’s set in nebula and i was so happy hahahahha

[summer yarrow]

[wind pine]

I would've expect muzz on Galaxy. But I don't mind him at solar tbh.

[rough pendant]

iirc he was solar last time he played too

that was a few years back

[wind pine]

Muzz is still on my "must see" list, missed his set at liquicity previously.

[wanton tangle]

https://clashfinder.com/s/liqfest2024 times aren't right yet, stages are though

friday needs to chill 😭

[idle kayak]

Sunday is gonna be such a vibe tho 😍😍

[zinc abyss]

I'm so upset I can't be there sunday

[rugged solstice]

no clashes when you only camping @ lunar

[rancid sluice]

He got demoted to Solar

[rugged solstice]

next year he'll be demoted again to main stage

[rancid sluice]

[mellow gust]

makoto on galaxy

now I may want to go again

eventho I can only go friday for the whole day

[fierce gull]

Can’t be doing me dirty with netsky and mozey at the same on Sunday. If they are at the same time you will be seeing me sprinting between stages 🏃🏻‍♂️💨

[full sonnet]

thank u for this, already on my homescreen

also sick lowr galaxy

wonder what that will be like

[wanton tangle]

npnp, hope its somewhat right on the times haha

[grim holly]

I don't think I'll leave lunar once on Saturday

[hybrid wolf]

im just gonna wing it this year tbf

[tender cairn]

Biggest mood tbf

[jaunty pawn]

I have a couple of things I want to see

but the rest are going to be fully vibes based

[hybrid wolf]

prepare to be yapped at on saturday night tho

that's all

[tender cairn]

There’s some sets that I don’t want to miss under any circumstances cough Justin Hawkes cough but for the most part I wanna just vibe with the homies

[silk pecan]

Same

[hybrid wolf]

ive been wanting to make stickers to give out but

idk what itll be yet

[jaunty pawn]

another year, another time thinking if want to be a "yapper" some night

[hybrid wolf]

yah well im always yapping so

[jaunty pawn]

truuuuuee

[tender cairn]

Can you make holographic ones of this that move when you change angle?

https://tenor.com/view/pop-cat-gif-4564454694708864673

Damn beat me to it

[jaunty pawn]

[jaunty pawn]

mario takes a good grip on both cheeks and etc.

[hybrid wolf]

🤨

[rough pendant]

pardon

[jaunty pawn]

ooh sorry you meant holographic stickers

I se

[hybrid wolf]

i really like this idea though

[rough pendant]

https://nl.aliexpress.com/i/1005005914413778.html

[hybrid wolf]

No I want to draw it myself >;[

dont think i's possible as a sticker though :[

[charred trellis]

trust me man, its crazy

[brave ravine]

rather niche but I'm here for it

[hybrid wolf]

okay specially for you guys

[brave ravine]

For legal reasons I'd like to clarify I was referring to Götze the footballer and miska has indeed showed me not that ahahahah

[hybrid wolf]

uh-huh

[rigid breach]

Nice Save!

[rancid sluice]

[hybrid wolf]

@next bear does this mean your birthday falls in this weekend again?

o

sorry

karoqqe

@odd magnet

[brave ravine]

I know I'm normally a bozo for the funnies but I genuinely had no idea about this one

[jaunty pawn]

but you still made unfunny funny

[next bear]

Hahaha

[hybrid wolf]

damn bro is really saving the day here

[hybrid wolf]

sorry! anyway when is your birthday

[next bear]

18th may

[hybrid wolf]

[rancid sluice]

Oh that's in less then a month

[odd magnet]

noo, it's a few days after mine:)

[hybrid wolf]

Aaah

[odd magnet]

this

[wise nest]

the choices on friday will be impossible even tho these times arent right yet

damn

:(

[wanton tangle]

yeah it's insane lol, everyone for me from like 7pm all the way to the end off the night is a clash

need to clone myself on all 3 stages

[wise nest]

yeah exactly

every day the lineup is good but i think on saturday and sunday the choices will be the easiest for me

[hybrid wolf]

If anything what is something particularily like?

(smth that I can make a drawing of)

[pseudo vale]

This has been my mindset for festivals for a while now :D

Walk around and just vibe wherever sounds nice

[unkempt cloud]

poor bastard

[cerulean ember]

Yapyapyap

[odd magnet]

I'm so sorry babe but I am having a stroke trying to understand what you're saying 🤣

[fringe pier]

@odd magnet is that your go to chat up line?

[odd magnet]

don't need a chat up line 😎

[hybrid wolf]

Sorry 😭 I usually draw something for people for a birthday gift so I need some reference as to what you like to cook something up

[odd magnet]

That's so cute of u!! 😭 Idk if there is anything specific! I think it would be more fun if you just freestyled something off of what you know about me

[wise nest]

How big is the chance that Kanine and Sub focus will play at the same time u guys think? I reeaaally want to see both but i’m scared they will both close on friday🥲

[wanton tangle]

it woudn't surprise me at all, deffo the biggest artists there on the respective stages

[wise nest]

:(

[rough pendant]

im a proud owner of one of these!

[haughty dune]

They won't clash ;). Obv some clashes are unavoidable, but this one is!

[fringe pier]

Sub focus b2b kanine confirmed

[unkempt cloud]

fox and gyro? 🥺

[round marsh]

Does anyone know how regularly the shuttlebus arrives at Alkmaar station? I kinda chose an early flight from the UK to Schiphol that arrives on the 19th July at 9:40am and want to make sure I haven't missed anything important.

[opaque hawk]

Every 30min roughly I think.

[half grove]

I'm arriving at the airport for 11am on the same day, hoping not to miss anything... Should be ok

[wind pine]

Schiphol airport > alkmaar > shuttle bus > huge line > setting up camp > festival.
This does take up quite some time.

[half grove]

Hmm that's true

Damn one night hotel is mad expensive

[tender cairn]

You could always do the Thursday camping

[half grove]

Can't I have work 😂

[tender cairn]

Ahh rough

[half grove]

What time does it close Thursday or can you get there any time

[round marsh]

looks like I logged back in just on time. The only other thing I need to check is how easy it is to get the train ticket to alkmaar; do I have to get it well in advance or can I get away with buying it, say, 10 or so minutes before the train arrives?

[tender cairn]

Uhh I’m not entirely sure this time. I think last year was meant to be 17:00-21:00 but there was such a big queue that loads of people got in later

It just says from 15:00 onwards from what I can see

[rancid sluice]

You can just tap your debit or creditcard at the closing/check-in gates. Just be sure to do the same at check out (:

"Tickets" work at distance travelled in the NL not what time or how long it took you to do it

[round marsh]

Contactless? sweet, I can just use my watch.

[round marsh]

Ah, kinda like a taxi.

[rancid sluice]

Yes! I think you can use your watch. Not sure since I don't have one. I just use either my debit card or travel card (I'm from the NL and I have some special discount deal kinda thing but those are only worth it if you travel in the NL quite a lot)

[tender cairn]

Is OV cheaper at all or is there not much point in using if contactless is supported?

[quasi jay]

@round marsh there will be multiple busses driving from and to Alkmaar station on Friday, especially if you arrive during 'peak hours' (11-16), you should be ok in terms of busses. but it might be busy around this time since most people arrive in this time window.

[rancid sluice]

OV card is only beneficial if you have a discount membership. But those are only worth it when you travel a lot

[tender cairn]

Ahh right

[round marsh]

Saying that, I probably won't be using a card that works with my watch since the currency is different. Looks like I'll be paying my local travel agent a visit today.

[rancid sluice]

No no it works!

[round marsh]

It converts £ to €?

[rancid sluice]

@glossy nova is from Switzerland and used his phone/contactless and it worked. They don't have euros either over there

Yes

[cerulean ember]

Yeah works like a charm

[tender cairn]

You could always get like a Monzo or Revolut bank account that doesn’t have conversion fees

[cerulean ember]

Afaik you dont get scammed with conversion unless your bank is maybe scummy

[round marsh]

Nice! I'll probably still arrange to get myself a card with some euros on just to be on the safe side but it's good to know I don't necessarily need to.

[cerulean ember]

As long as you realise that you cant pay with cash in public transport, only while topping up the card

Its only checking in and out with cards over here

[round marsh]

I can manage that; I almost never use cash over here anyway.

[rigid breach]

Something I've observed is MasterCard works better in the Netherlands than VISA

My VISA card works at major retailers but where it hasn't worked my MasterCard has covered me

[tender cairn]

Throwback to the supermarket we went to that accepted neither 😭

Oh wait you might’ve gone by that point Tankski

[cerulean osprey]

maestro moment

but I've also noticed abroad MasterCard is so much better than VISA

also when I went to france a while back, the card I mainly used was a VISA and I got charged every time I made a payment in Euros the conversion fee of the day

which was pain

so now I use my Starling card when I'm abroad

worst part is I had that card at that point so I screwed myself over 😭

[odd magnet]

Yeah can't use my Monzo card in AH which is annoying

[mighty willow]

Yeah this

[tender cairn]

Mine’s worked every time?

[odd magnet]

Mine has never worked

[cerulean osprey]

skill issue

[odd magnet]

😦

[cerulean osprey]

nah that's super weird tho

my card worked all the time in AH

[idle kayak]

Just use Google Pay, it works everywhere

That's the main lesson I learned from trying to figure out a good way to pay by card outside of Germany over the last few years

[cerulean ember]

Counting on apple pay everywhere

[median glacier]

just get a ING or ABN card, those work in all stores

[half grove]

What's AH?

I use Monzo/MasterCard always been fine any country I've been to

[pseudo vale]

almost everywhere! some places, even local, just won't take it for some reason

[half grove]

Yeah if I flew Thursday after work I'd get there wayyy after 9

[median glacier]

Albert Heijn, one of the major grocery chains in the Netherlands

[mighty willow]

Albert Heijn my beloved

[wind pine]

Albert Heijn, my first employer. Lol

[odd magnet]

Love Albert Heijn ❤️

[dusky fjord]

Me too - blue logo right? I found it hard to locate supermarkets in Amsterdam but that one had a more spottable shingle. Bit different to UK to have to scan receipt to exit though... although I think that's coming here.

[median glacier]

but why

[fast lark]

the sound you make when you stub your toe

[odd magnet]

They always have loads of good vegan stuff

[median glacier]

I find them pretty much on par with Jumbo

[mighty willow]

Havent been that often to jumbo

[idle kayak]

what the fuck is a jumbo

Albert Heijn supremacy

[mint charm]

Man I miss Albert Heijn, been in NL on business trips on two occasions 🥹

[quasi jay]

Liquicity campsite chair with this globe logo, or the logo with globe+text underneath? 👀

[median glacier]

It's basically Albert Heijn but in yellow

[half grove]

Underneath

[odd magnet]

yeah that's also good!

but AH looks much nicer lmao

[tender cairn]

Goes hard but I’d have to donate to someone afterwards

Yea it's not really super compact. Understandable that people can't take it with them that easily.

[mighty willow]

What if you were to store it with somebody?

[mighty willow]

That blue goes hard ❤️🔥

[fast lark]

i'm a broken record at this point, but will there be one with a full galaxy print?

[quasi jay]

Full galaxy campsite chairs require serious quantities, we’ll try it first with a dark blue one this year and if there is enough demand, we can try full galaxy print! Cool idea

[fast lark]

Just slap a galaxy print on everything and i'll buy em

[proper siren]

look into hostels. If you dont mind rooming with a few people its a very affordable way to spend the night. Also check for hostels near rail stops that are out of like city proper but not too far away

[fast lark]

My manager's plan for a festival in italy this summer is unironically to just doomscroll tinder until he finds a place to crash

[proper siren]

There is a jumbo near Alkmaar station that always gets slammed with people the day of

[tender cairn]

Insta screenshot doing Arcturius and Yue dirty buuut

[half grove]

Actually found a decent one for £76 at the airport. Think is need to see if I can refund the other flight

[round marsh]

In that case I'm definitely going to see if my local travel agent can get me a mastercard with some euros on it.

[wind pine]

Couch surfing is an app/community made for this purpose. Been there since way before Tinder. It works quite well.

[fast lark]

You underestimate his horniness

[wind pine]

You probably get some bonus with Tinder you won't get with couch surfing though 🤣

[proper siren]

I like using this https://wise.com/us/ allows me use one card with multiple currencies and each one has unique banking information. Also easy to reload while Im out and about. Plus the conversion rates are usually pretty good

[round marsh]

I'll look into it.

[half grove]

FFS KLM won't transfer my flight even for a fee and I can't use my return unless I make the outbound flight 😐 so I have to do a whole new booking and lose my if I want to get there thursday

[wind pine]

Ouch, do you have any travel insurance? You might be able to use that to help out

[half grove]

I do but I doubt it'd cover it coz there's not a 'real' reason I need to cancel it...

Technically it's a missed departure but I mean I'd already be in the country 😂 so idk where I stand with that

[odd magnet]

Proud moment as this is an Estonian company 😍

[proper siren]

oh shit nice!

[opaque hawk]

I’m from USA and no issues when I buy train tickets in NL. Just let your card/bank know you’re going there ahead of time because some have conversion fees.

[round marsh]

out of curiosity is your card Visa or Mastercard?

[half grove]

Anyone know the bus timings from Alkmaar? What time do they start on Friday?

[unkempt cloud]

can personally vouch for a Chase Visa working

had zero issues at the booths, or anywhere else for that matter

I did get an OV card because i was bouncing around a lot after the weekend

[jaunty pawn]

Friday the first bus is 9:30 in the morning if I'm not completely off?

[quasi jay]

Opening hours (incl shuttle times) will be announced early next week

[fringe pier]

Cheers Jelle

[grim holly]

I can also vouch for visa working for NL trains, that's what I used last couple of years

I did buy them through the app tho, idk if that makes a difference

[jaunty pawn]

I've only used Visa and the only place it has given me trouble was AH

[summer yarrow]

If you need train tickets the Trainline app works. You can use whatever with that. I use PayPal

[round marsh]

I use the trainline app in the UK so that's probably what I'll use in NL with my Visa debit card acting as a backup.

[summer yarrow]

Yeah, it worked well last year for me so I'll be doing the same again

[cerulean osprey]

i got an ov card as well but I had to do the train to alkmaar on card, but again no issues for me just contactless paying, but that was my monzo business card I think soooo idk

[cerulean ember]

95 days

[buoyant lintel]

my god so little time to prepare

[cerulean osprey]

still need to book hotel and flights

[buoyant lintel]

copped a flixbus from LUX a cutla days ago. thursday gonna be a long day

[cerulean ember]

Sounds luxurious

[mighty willow]

Lmao

[feral sandal]

One question about the LiquiciTent, it says:
1x pop-up tent (2p) with a branded bag
1x branded airbed (2p) (200cm x 140cm x 18cm)
2x branded sleeping bags (1p)

Using "2p" and "1p" words, but it's the pack if you chose "1P Liquicity Sleeping Package", or I need to select "2P Liquicity Sleeping Package" to be sure to have the 2 sleeping bags ? Or is it to get 2 Liquicitent pack (so 4 people) ? Don't know I'm clear enough

[tender cairn]

I’m a bit confused about what you’re asking? Both sleeping packs come with a double-size air mattress, but the 1 person package comes with 1 sleeping bag and the 2 person package comes with 2 sleeping bags

By the looks of the pics people took at Springfestival, you can only fit the one double mattress in a Liquicitent

[feral sandal]

Ok, so the only difference between the 1P Package and 2P is the amount of sleeping bags

which I need, but I wanted to be sure

[tender cairn]

Yes

[feral sandal]

oh I didn't see this one, thanks

I really love the fact that they propose donation or payback options at the end of the festival, they really thought about everything 👌

[proper siren]

Submitted my PTO for Liquicity Festival

I will be there from July 15th to the 23rd

[fringe pier]

@proper siren sweet see you there brother ❤️

[tender cairn]

Things we really love to see

[vivid cargo]

Hey guys, I have a weekend ticket from Friday until Sunday. However I'm going alone, so if you'd like to travel by car from the region Maassluis/Westland. Then you are welcome to join me.

[dusky fjord]

Is the tipi description correct - it says 'cosy rug'?! Unless that means the plastic floor of the tipi! It's not mentioned again on the details section. Not trying to pick holes - just you know what people are like when they think they're getting one thing and then it's not quite it, might be better to make them consistent. What you do get is lots of little grass spiders to welcome you...aaaaaaah. But they're easier to shoo out on plastic at least. Soooo excited - not long to go!!!

[cerulean ember]

spoderfriends

[final forum]

They were everywhere in my kartent last year too haha

[jaunty pawn]

just means you're never alone

[wicked jolt]

I just got mine approved yesterday ❤️

[fossil skiff]

thats a good reminder

[quasi jay]

The ride sharing app is live again on https://festival.liquicity.com/info/travel 🎊 Consider sharing your ride if you have a spot available. It also includes a Waiting List feature so you can receive a notification if someone offers a ride from your city in the future.

[buoyant lintel]

thats such a wholesome concept ! man liq really think of everything dont they

[rigid breach]

Adminbootwebs coming in clutch again 🙏

[mighty willow]

Well they're also doing the festival for some time already

[buoyant lintel]

lol vtru. my mind still gets blown away from small eu things every now and then sry

[quasi jay]

Lockers have been added to the ticketshop. This year, lockers can be rented for just one day instead of only the entire weekend. And we have switched to an eLocker system for the first time so no need to get a physical key, hand it in for €5 cash, etc. Locker codes will be sent via email 72h before the festival starts. Also possible to buy a locker on site via QR. 🔐

https://shop.paylogic.com/64c7c482d03440d5bda6e196f441c082/other

[verbal flame]

This is the way to do it. No more losing your key or losing your friends which have the key.

[tender cairn]

Big ups! Also glad you can buy on site as I’m not sure whether to go with one this year yet

[wind pine]

What key do I use for sniffing now? 😩

[cerulean ember]

the one that smells like home

[hollow plume]

Hey everyone, sussing the plan to come in from BC Canada for this unreal liqui lineup with my hub. We're wondering about off site lodging and if anyone in this thread has experience with it even if it is in Alkmaar? Any recommendations from veterans would be appreciate, hope to be there 💚

[wicked jolt]

Theres deffinitly off-site accomodations there, but if youre worried about your luggage amount with camping and whatnot, I can also very much recommend the Pre-Pitched tent options for the festival camping grounds. Costs you almost the same if not less than a hotel or bungalo nearby. And theres some pretty home-y options in there, including proper beds in the higher class ones.

If you just dont want to camp at all, theres always the possibility to grab a hotel in Alkmaar and use the Shuttlebusses to go back and forth.
Other people from our group have also found hotels even closer by the festival area or rented a vacation home basicly right next to the Geestmerambacht area

[hollow hill]

will there be a DJ contest this year again?

I missed out on last years

[verbal flame]

Probably yes

[opaque hawk]

I stay in Alkmaar every time. Hotels are decent enough. Things tended to close between 20:00 and 22:00 but plenty of places to buy snacks you can keep in your hotel.

The shuttle bus leaves from the train station so try to stay within walking distance of it if you plan on using it. Can’t stay till the end of Friday and Saturday unless you try to taxi/uber back to Alkmaar.

you can also rent a car from the airport but parking in Alkmaar is sparse. Driving from Alkmaar to the festival is easy and the festival parking is fine. Sometimes have to walk a bit far but it lets you stay till the end of the night and even the silent disco if you want. Get a large locker if you can so you don’t have to go back to the hotel.

[jaunty pawn]

or rent a bike

it's a 30 min ride

[proper siren]

Can I get a DUI on a bike?

[jaunty pawn]

it's the same as cars afaik?

so 0,05%

answer is yes @proper siren

[rancid sluice]

On a bicycle? I don't think so. As long as you don't start cycling in the middle of the road or some shit. I've never heard of someone getting a DUI on a bicycle in the NL

[rancid sluice]

Nevermind just googled it and apperently you can get a 200 euro fine

Ive personally only had cops laugh at me drunk cycling

Important to note; In the NL you can get a 160 euro fine for holding your phone while cycling and they will fine you for that

[turbid bobcat]

i had this idea too. but then decided on a tent instead cuz fk it can't be that bad. and it was ok

[feral sandal]

last year I had an Airbnb in alkmaar, you can use the shuttle to go (no restriction), but speed up after the last set to get the last shuttle, taxis are expensive as fuck, don't miss it !

[rough pendant]

also dont miss the night program on site 😄

[wise nest]

yeah its probably one of those rules that dont really apply in reality unless you are actually being dangerous to others

[mighty willow]

Or hanging out with the friendly people 🙂

[hollow plume]

Thank you!

[hollow plume]

Perfect, thank you so much

[hollow plume]

lovely idea thank you

[rigid breach]

The survey response email is out 👀

[rancid sluice]

I'm waiting for the most important line-up to drop.. the food line-up

[rigid breach]

Same tbh

[cerulean ember]

okonomiyaki pls

[wicked jolt]

@rancid sluice Hey I have a question regarding the announcement.
It mentions that the campsite will be "loaded in a more responsible way" on thursday. What does this mean? Are we going to still be able to pick our own spot with our friends or will we be assigned a place by Staff?

[rancid sluice]

Im just guessing here cause I dont know exactly how it works (cause I dont work for Liquicity ) but I would assume they will use the crew more. Every year there's crew walking around during set up asking you to put your tent closer together etc. I assume they will probably do that more this year?

[tender cairn]

I think that’s just a prelude to the points they’ve made below

[wicked jolt]

I hope its just that cuz our group is pretty large 😁

[wicked jolt]

Could be, some clarification would be very neat 🙏

[rancid sluice]

Best way to guarantee having bigger groups together is to book a friendzone

[tender cairn]

^

[cerulean ember]

Yeah best to go for a friendzone, you can get them adjacent afaik

[wicked jolt]

Of course yeah. Whats the biggest size Friendzone again?

[final forum]

Them Italian pizza’s slap. Those pizzas kept me alive both times I’ve been

[rancid sluice]

Ive never tried the pizza! I really should this year though

[wicked jolt]

I do hope Karma Kebab is back again as well 🙏 That stuff so gud

[final forum]

Definitely recommend

[tender cairn]

The one in the campsite was decent, not sure about on the festival site

[hybrid wolf]

The pizza on site is good!

[tender cairn]

Kinda spenny but that’s festival food for you

[hybrid wolf]

even price wise

3liq/10eu for a pizza that's out of a stone oven is decent

[final forum]

I didn’t even know there was one on the festival site

[rancid sluice]

I have Pasta Joe my beloved and I also liked the Japanese stall with the okonomiyaki and the fried cauliflower

[hybrid wolf]

yessss

[tender cairn]

Tbh there might not’ve been, I can’t fully remember

[rancid sluice]

I currently have a new matcha obsession but I dont know if they sold that at the festival. Otherwise I have to bring my own set with me

[tender cairn]

The Ramen place was good last year but portions were a lil on the small side

[hybrid wolf]

can i hop over and have some with you

[rancid sluice]

Ofcourse gotta have our caffeine

[hybrid wolf]

[tender cairn]

I wonder if the place that gave @tired garnet the shits will be back, and if he’ll get food from there again

[cerulean ember]

Same here! My treat 🙂

[rancid sluice]

yo free pizza?

[hybrid wolf]

so excitedddddd again
