Getting here and Parking
The event car park is located approximately 800 meters from the museum grounds ( a 15 minute walk). Parking costs € 10 per car (per day) and can be paid with cash or with PIN. The car park can be found by following the special P signage to the event. The route there is clearly indicated from both the motorway (A73, exit 7) and the provincial roads.
Through the online ticketshop you can also order your parkingticket.
Access & address
The event is organized in the Overloon War Museum and in the surrounding museum park and forest.
The following is important for disabled visitors. Most of the terrain is reasonably accessible, especially the landscaped paths and roads. However, the encampments are located in the woods and in more difficult places. Of course, the museum itself is completely suitable for a visit.
Dogs
Dogs are welcome, but keep in mind that very loud bangs occur regularly during the event. Dogs on leash at all times.
A shuttle bus is available for the disabled from the parking area to the entrance of the site.
