Payment System

This year, we’re holding off on going cashless – we want more time to perfect the system. So, we’re sticking with token machines that take both cash and cards. Plus, there’s an info point where you can make payments if you run into any issues.

We’re set up to take bank or credit cards (Maestro, Mastercard, Visa) and mobile payments through the ‘Payconiq by Bancontact’ app. You’ll also find several ATMs close by, so cash payments are still good to go too.

Lockers

Lockers are up for grabs on-site! Grab yours quick since online reservations aren’t available anymore. They come in two sizes.

Free Hearing Protection

Pick up your free earplugs at the festival entrance or info booth. They’re also great for drowning out any snoring neighbors at Camp Brak.

Free Mobile Ashtrays

Pick up a free portable ashtray at the entrance or camping area. Just drop in your cigarette, and it’ll put itself out. Keeps the grounds nice for everyone coming next. But honestly? Best move is to skip the tobacco altogether—it’s better for you and for us!

First Aid Service

The Red Cross has a first aid station right on the Brakrock grounds. You can get first aid, hand in your allergy card, grab some sunscreen, get treated, and even get referred to the hospital if needed. Don’t hesitate to ask a Brakrock staff member if you need any help!

Foodtrucks

In 2025, we’re going to keep building on our food truck lineup. Last time, it meant shorter lines, more food options, and plenty of satisfied faces. And who knows, maybe we’ll finally have pizza in 2025?

Beer stands

At Brakrock, we've got three bars: Riverbar, Woodbar, and the Belgian Beer Bar. We’re all about keeping the lines short, so you won’t be waiting long for a drink.

Belgian Beer Bar

You can dive into a great selection of specialty beers at our Belgian Beer Bar

Merchhill

Score merch from your favorite bands at our new merch spot on the hill! Check out over 70 meters of stands featuring all the bands at the festival, including Fat Wreck Chords and more. Plus, all the profits go straight to the bands!

Skate Area

Right before you hit the Lakestage, you’ll hear wheels rolling on a skate ramp. In 2025, we’ll have a mini ramp where both festival-goers and pro riders can show off their best tricks. We’re teaming up with Blitzkrieg Skateboards for a contest with some awesome prizes up for grabs. We’re also thinking about bringing back the longboard push race, so stay tuned for more updates throughout 2025

Drinking Water

Unfortunately, our PIDPA bar got canceled for 2024, so we couldn’t provide free water. But we did have a deal: two waters for the price of one. This deal will be back in 2025! We’re also looking into making sure the PIDPA bar will be there next year. Just a heads-up: this bar will only be open during the hottest hours, from 2 PM to 7 PM.​

Music stages

Brakrock will have four spots to catch music in 2025. The main stage is the Riverstage, right by the banks of the Nete River. From the grass or a big viewing platform, you can watch the bands and take in the stunning views of the Nete Valley. The other main stage is the Woodstage, located in the park with a view of the castle ruins.

The third stage is a bit further in the park, the Lakestage, next to an old branch of the Nete River. We’re giving this stage a cool upgrade for 2025. Plus, you can check out acoustic acts at the DIY American Socks Stage next to the Belgian Beer Bar!​

Seating Area

Brakrock is set in a lush park location, with plenty of seating scattered throughout Park Terelst. Enjoy the view from benches by the old 11th-century ruins or relax in the new seating area next to the old branch of the Nete River.
