Accommodation 

Spend one or two nights in a unique accommodation – a civil defence facility situated right next to the field. We recommend bringing a sleeping bag. 

This means that on Saturday and Sunday morning you only have to roll out of bed and then you are almost on the field. You’ll get a spacious room with plenty of beds, along with shared toilets and showers. 

It's a once-in-a-lifetime experience you can't afford to miss!
