All about your homeward journey by extra night train

There will be an access control at Zeebrugge-Strand station before boarding the extra night train. Boarding a night train is only allowed with the corresponding Night Train ticket 5 Hours. As Night Train tickets 5 Hours are nominative, you must be able to present your train ticket with the right code along with your (photo) ID.

All night trains run from Zeebrugge-Strand :

  • to Antwerp with stops in Aalter, Ghent-Sint-Pieters, Ghent-Dampoort, Lokeren, Sint-Niklaas, Antwerp-South, Antwerp-Berchem and Antwerp-Central

The offer of night trains is determined by a commercial agreement with the festival organizer. The origin of the visitors is the basis for this.
