Travel Tip for Belgian Visitors: Avoid the De Lijn bus from Turnhout to Tilburg, as it can get overcrowded and drivers may refuse entry. Consider other travel options below for a smoother journey.

Shuttles run continuously between Tilburg Station and the festival site. Please note: Due to construction works, the shuttle bus stop has moved from the back to the front of the station. Nearest address: Spoorlaan 444, or just follow the signs.

Make sure to buy your Shuttle Bus tickets no later than Thursday, 11 June, to get a discount! From Friday, 12 June, they will be more expensive. Available while supplies last.

For detailed departure locations and schedules, see below.

Hop on the festival shuttle! Buy a ticket for the first day you plan to use the shuttle. After that, you can take one return trip on the same or another day. Shuttles run continuously between the festival site and Tilburg Station at the following times. 

Friday 12 June: 09:00 - 04:30
Saturday 13 June: 10:00 - 04.30
Sunday 14 June: 10:00 - 02:00
Monday 15 June: 08:00* - 13:00

* Departures only from the festival site.

NB: We aim to minimise waiting times while avoiding empty buses, so departures may wait up to 20 minutes to fill up.

You can find all the shuttle bus locations for Best Kept Secret on this map: Shuttle Bus Locations.

For Lake Resort visitors, a shuttle bus is available from the Main Entrance to the Lake Resort Check-in. From the check-in, you can take another shuttle to the resort itself. These shuttle times are as follows:

Friday
From 10:00 to 20:00

Saturday
From 10:00 to 16:15

Sunday
From 19:30 to 22:00

Monday
From 08:00 to 13:00

Excellent idea! You can park your bike (for free) next to the festival entrance by following the white signs with a bicycle symbol. Tilburg Central Station is about a 30-minute bike ride to the festival, so by the time you arrive, you've already worked off those extra calories for that one additional beer!

If you're planning to drive to BKS, consider carpooling. This way, we can reduce the number of cars traveling to the festival together. It's better for the environment and helps ease congestion in our parking areas.
 

With Slinger you can offer a ride if you're driving yourself and have some spare places in your car, or you can check availability to share a ride with someone else. This way there will be less cars traveling to BKS, and you might make some new friends along the way! You can check or create a ride via the Slinger tool.
 

With a parking ticket, you can enter and exit the parking lot unlimited throughout the festival. Pre-sale tickets are available for €30 (incl. €2,50 service fee), while on-site tickets cost €42,50. Secure your parking spot in advance via our ticketshop to save time and money!

Coming by car? Parking is limited, so we strongly recommend carpooling. A parking ticket is valid for one and the same vehicle (motorcycles also require a ticket) and allows unlimited entry and exit throughout the weekend. If you only plan to park on Friday, please buy a ticket for that day to help us better estimate the number of cars per day. 

Staying at Secret Fields? Your tent package includes one parking ticket.

NB: Overnight stays in the parking areas are not permitted. Sleeping in cars, campers, or vans is prohibited and you may risk a fine (€ 160 per person).

Make sure your car is fully charged before heading to the festival parking, as there are no charging facilities available on-site. There are plenty of charging stations in the surrounding area.

We have a Kiss & Ride route. Just follow the signs labeled Taxi / Kiss & Ride to the designated area. Remember to exit here at drop-off and return to the same spot for pickup at the end of the day.
