Answers to common questions about our festival coverage, costs and travel planning.
📰 About Us
About Tansaarcadestack
No. Tansaarcadestack is an independent editorial platform. We publish guides, city travel advice and price breakdowns, but we do not sell, resell, reserve or transfer festival passes, and we take no commission. Anything you book should go through the official festival organiser or their authorised partners.
Always start with the organisers themselves: oktoberfest.de for the Munich Wiesn and tomorrowland.com for Tomorrowland. Oktoberfest grounds entry is traditionally free, with tent tables reserved directly through individual tents; Tomorrowland runs a registration and ballot system on its own platform. Be wary of unofficial resellers — our price guide explains what the legitimate tiers usually look like.
💶 Prices & Passes
Cost Questions
Our editors put a realistic daily spend at roughly €50 – €150 per person. Entry to the Theresienwiese is traditionally free; the variation comes from tent reservations, food and drink, rides and souvenirs. See the full breakdown in our price guide.
Recent editions have sat in the region of €300 for a standard weekend pass, around €450 once DreamVille camping is bundled in, and up to about €600 for premium packages. These are indicative figures for one festival weekend — the official organiser publishes final pricing each season.
No — every figure we publish is an editorial estimate based on public information and previous editions, and all ranges are quoted consistently across our Festivals, event and Price Guide pages. Organisers can change pricing, tiers and availability at any time, so treat our numbers as planning guidance rather than an offer.
Accommodation is usually the biggest surprise — rates in Munich, Antwerp and Brussels rise sharply during festival weeks. Also allow for transport, on-site food and drink, lockers and deposits: budget an extra €40 – €80 per day to be comfortable.
