Mobiliteit

On Monday 11 July, The Rolling Stones’ "SIXTY" tour will light up the King Baudouin Stadium in Brussels. Monday 11 July looks to be a busy day, with the Flemish Public Holiday and numerous activities in and around Brussels, as well as a packed King Baudouin Stadium. We recommend leaving the car at home and planning your trip to the King Baudouin Stadium by other means: by bike, concert bus (special buses to the stadium) and/or public transport. We’re providing 2 supervised bicycle parking facilities near the stadium. There are concert buses to 55 destinations in Belgium and the Netherlands.

The King Baudouin Stadium is easily accessible by bike. It is within cycling distance of a lot of municipalities. We’ve mapped this out for you. There are two free, supervised bicycle parking facilities near the entrance:

  • Victor Boin stadium (Houba de Strooperlaan, Brussels)
  • Keizerin Charlottelaan (next to Brussels Expo parking A)

 

 

If you don’t have your own bicycle, you can use the Villo bike-sharing scheme in Brussels. Activation costs 1 euro and the first half hour is free. There are four 4 Villo stations around the King Baudouin Stadium: Heizel/Heysel, Atomium, Stadium/Stade and Houba-Brugmann. Find more information on Villo here.

 
Do you live too far away to come by bike? Then we recommend Park & Bike. Put your bike in your car, park just outside Brussels then cycle to the King Baudouin Stadium. You can park at:

 

  • Plantentuin Meise (Nieuwelaan 38, 1860 Meise - 4.5 km bike ride)
  • Basilix Sint-Agatha-Berchem (Keizer Karellaan 420, 1082 Sint-Agatha-Berchem - 5 km bike ride)

From Brussels-Midi, the last train to Ghent and Bruges is at 12:30am, to Antwerp at 11:56pm, Leuven at 12:23am and Liège at 12:20am.

If you have a ticket for midfield or stand 2, you should disembark at the Houba-Brugmann stop. If your ticket is for stands 3 or 4, use the Heizel/Heysel stop. More information via this link

BY CAR

 

We strongly advise against it, but if you do decide to come to the King Baudouin Stadium by car you should take the following important matters into account:

 

  • The organisers are selling parking tickets in advance. Only those with a parking ticket will be able to access the Trade Mart car park or Parking C. Attention: your booking is valid for one parking space only, and only in the car park you have bought a ticket for.
  • Parking is prohibited on the Heysel site and in the surrounding streets. Traffic police keep a close eye on this. There are no parking spaces available outside of the official car parks. 
  • As Flemish Public Holiday celebrations will be taking place, you should expect very busy traffic, so leave on time. 
  • To avoid the traffic around the King Baudouin Stadium, you could opt for Park & Ride. Park your car at one of the transit parking sites around Brussels and use public transport to get to the King Baudouin Stadium. MIVB/STIB is providing extra metro services on lines 5 after the concert. The following transit parking sites are accessible with these lines: Erasmus, Delta, Herrmann-Debroux. You can find more information about the transit parking sites here.
