    ROTTERDAM RAVE FESTIVAL

    We’ve arranged a shuttle bus service to Rotterdam Rave Festival 2019.

    – Departure station shuttle bus: Subway Station Slinge*

    – From Rotterdam Central station you can take the subway to station Slinge, direction ‘D De Akkers’ or ‘E Slinge’.

    – The buses will drive during the entire duration of the festival.

    – A shuttle bus ticket costs €5,-. Only retour tickets are available. Get yours in our online ticketshop.

    *The shuttle buses depart from subway Station Slinge. It’s the most convenient / fastest way as the Maastunnel is closed for road work, also the traffic from Rotterdam Central Station to the festival site on a Saturday will be too busy.
