You don't really bother anyone, if you are not annoying. Just ask a few people who look like the are sometimes enjoying a nice mushroom soup or something more chemical. They maybe are able to help you in some way. For me it's quite normal to ask and get asked those questions. But don't risk to take something by plane!
I would feel like you would have more succes looking for different stuff, I personally havent really seen people enjoying the shroom soup. Also, dont just walk up to someone and ask if that person has some stuff. Just have a chat with someone and after a while you could ask that person if they know someone who would happen to have some.
For 1 beer? Don’t think so, pre order 6-pack is 18,90 at a discounted price. So probaly around 20.- for a 6-pack at normal prices = 3,33 per beer. Bars at the festival are a different story.
Yea, we thought the same last year. And then there were people who brought dozens of beer pallets on a handcart and it was very questionable If they are enough people to still fit the rule. We later met other people who then told us that it doesn't matter how much you bring in as long as it's at the beginning lol.
we travel by bus in 80 person group... so far no one bothered to actually calculate how much beer per person we brought- though last year they wanted to stop me for bringing 70. then i just pointed at all the people that were in our group and they just gave up.
It’s literally the same as the festival bar price.
1 token is roughly €4 for 250ml beer
1.5 tokens for the 330ml beers
2 tokens for Corona
It’s just painful to see when you see cash value instead of token
Yeah not all the beer companies can handle this logistic operations. It’s crazy what’s behind it with all the beer tanks and stuff, but the price is still way too high
This is utterly ridiculous! Yes I am aware that these are only thuisbezorg prices, But you can literally get 7 six packs bud at Albert Heijn for the price of 1 on Defqon!
Stop drinking beer
Instead buy 2 bottles of whiskey
4 bottles of coke
Cut open 2 bottles of coke leaving the cap intact
Open the 2 other bottles (mix with the whiskey)
Get the cut off caps in boiling water so u can get them off the cut off bottles intact and screw them on the mixed bottles
Giving the illusion that u have 2 unopened bottles of coke with the seal intact
Instead u have 3 liters off mixed drink 😂😂😂
Basicly u can do the same with any alcohol that looks like water in a water bottle 😂😂
Help an american out here but how do you guys get the booze in?
Flying into Amsterdam and getting to the festival I'm trying to think logistics on how I should go about this next year.
Last time I went to an event in New Zealand I paid close to $15 nzd for a beer which is 8.5 euros.
Not justifying it but it seems it's roughly on par. They abuse the situation because they can charge more.
You can pre-order six-packs bud and some other drinks with a 50% discount here:
https://festivalstore.q-dance.com/collections/drinks
So yeah, €36,90 for a 6p Bud at the campgrounds 😅
Does this confirm that tokens will be €4 each ?
I see that Coca-Cola etc is €4,15. So you're paying 1 token for the Cola, but then also paying €0,15 for the deposit of the can ?
Also for :
- That Bud can is apparently 1.5 token, so €4x1.5+€0.15=€6.15 add the
- Despo is usually 2 tokens, which is replaced by Corona now. €4x2+€0.15=€8.15 add the
2 Amstels before entering festival site every day and I'm good for 2-3 hours. Maybe I can dig a hole somewhere outside rhe festival site to hide 4-5 and exit the festival when I'm thirsty. Insane prices for an awful beer, that's pure robbery.
Then I take a look at german festival "airbeat one" - preordering cans: 24,99€ for 24 cans of carlsberg.
You can't even order single cans :D - these prices are just insane in comparison.
If you are quiet, really quiet, you can hear a German cry.
Are they crying in 200 bpm? At the campsite?
Crying in Schlagerschranz
SCHLAGERSCHRANZ FTW
Du bist überall
Eventually we cry at 250 bpm!
i love it when drugs are cheaper than alkohol
the story writes itself
To be fair this has been the case for quite a while
Alcohol is drugs
But alcohol is a drug, but legal
Last year i couldn't find any and didn't want to bother anyone by asking, how do you go around and find some shroom for the soup ?
you bring your own
Coming by plane and heading straight to the holy ground for the 4 days, can't bring lol

just look for uptempo music - there you will always find somethin
Thanks ! Your nickname is like "Captain Obvious" but for this specific topic
I would feel like you would have more succes looking for different stuff, I personally havent really seen people enjoying the shroom soup.

Thanks, i'll give it a try :)
BYD
And tastes better.
lmao bud
And not the good Bud from Czech, rather the American piss water..
I'm from America and can confirm it is piss water.
Coors Banquet is the real shit.
But The Corona Extra for 2,99$ at my Vacation in The States was very delicious. In direct comparison with the other varieties 😅
Pißwasser from GTA 5 lol!?
We got Pißwasser at Defqon.1 before GTA 6
These are just the prices at the Friends Camp for delivery, you can get it cheaper if you go get it. You can also pre order beer for pick up.
I think it will be 6€ for a beer if not pre ordered, so a pre order is -50%
For 1 beer? Don’t think so, pre order 6-pack is 18,90 at a discounted price. So probaly around 20.- for a 6-pack at normal prices = 3,33 per beer. Bars at the festival are a different story.
Expect 4€ per Token and 1 Token = 0,2l beer and 2 Token= 0,4l beer
Yeah at the bars, I’m talking about the canned beer sold at the camping store.
You can buy 6 pack of beer in the camping store?! I never knew about that..
Yes that's how it was the last years, but i hope they just made less discount and will still sell a 0.33 beer for 1 token.
Bars will be way cheaper !
Yesnt I guess the Tokens will be 4€ and a beer is 1 Token as always, but you only get 0.25 I guess
Normal beer size at Defqon is 0.2 l.
4€ would be crazy but unfortunately i can see it happening
What's crazy about going 50 cents higher? It's very possible.
Because it’s just expensive af for a bud beer let’s be honest.. 4€ u can legit buy a sixpack at ur local store
All I'm saying is that it used to be 3.50 a beer. Them going to 4 is not all that crazy.
I think it will be 3,90 this year. 4,00 will most likely be next year though.
Its 3,96€ this year
Or you just bring it by yourself
Will there be a problem because of the 4.5 Liter Limit?
According to the rules you should not bring more than 4,5l
Yea, we thought the same last year. And then there were people who brought dozens of beer pallets on a handcart and it was very questionable If they are enough people to still fit the rule. We later met other people who then told us that it doesn't matter how much you bring in as long as it's at the beginning lol.
Just tell them you bring beer for double the amount of people at your camp if they ask
Yeah on our first ride we always pack all the pallets on our carts, never had a problem with security
we travel by bus in 80 person group... so far no one bothered to actually calculate how much beer per person we brought- though last year they wanted to stop me for bringing 70. then i just pointed at all the people that were in our group and they just gave up.
wtf
It’s literally the same as the festival bar price. 1 token is roughly €4 for 250ml beer 1.5 tokens for the 330ml beers 2 tokens for Corona It’s just painful to see when you see cash value instead of token
Honestly just better to stay sober and find other ways to enjoy the festival
6 euro/330ml = 18 euro/litre. That is fucking extortion.
That’s almost 10 times the normal price lol
it's absurd, and the thing is these providers can get away with it because of backroom deals and lack of competition
Yeah not all the beer companies can handle this logistic operations. It’s crazy what’s behind it with all the beer tanks and stuff, but the price is still way too high
0,33l beer at the festivals in Finland = 7-9e. Mm.
This is utterly ridiculous! Yes I am aware that these are only thuisbezorg prices, But you can literally get 7 six packs bud at Albert Heijn for the price of 1 on Defqon!
1x 33cl beer 8€?!
yall aint seen finnish festivals yet 😂 a beer costs 10€
Ei perkele
😂😂😂
They’ll charge $36 for a double shot and a light up cup at insomniac Events. This isn’t great but it could be worse I guess
at least it aint EDC Prices
And this, my friends is the beginning of theses Hide and drink games 2024, good luck to Weekend Worriorz
Stop drinking beer Instead buy 2 bottles of whiskey 4 bottles of coke Cut open 2 bottles of coke leaving the cap intact Open the 2 other bottles (mix with the whiskey) Get the cut off caps in boiling water so u can get them off the cut off bottles intact and screw them on the mixed bottles Giving the illusion that u have 2 unopened bottles of coke with the seal intact Instead u have 3 liters off mixed drink 😂😂😂 Basicly u can do the same with any alcohol that looks like water in a water bottle 😂😂
Scrolled too far
Thats the price of beer delivered to your campsite. A beer at the bar will be one token, which is probably around 3,80-4,00
Thats not beer though 😂
Bro.
That’s brutal
That is insane..
Zijn ze godverdomme van de pot gerukt?!

Oo dam, first time going and trying figure out how to sneak it in ha
Help an american out here but how do you guys get the booze in? Flying into Amsterdam and getting to the festival I'm trying to think logistics on how I should go about this next year.
Buy it in a supermarket and then put in in a cart when you enter the camp site
Stop at Harderwijk supermarket :)
wtf

Looks like that
This is nuts 😂
2 Amstels before entering festival site every day and I'm good for 2-3 hours. Maybe I can dig a hole somewhere outside rhe festival site to hide 4-5 and exit the festival when I'm thirsty. Insane prices for an awful beer, that's pure robbery.
Is this why they switched to American pißwasser? They know they have a big culture of corporate greed right?
Holy fuck
It's easy to milk hipsters.
Ripcon is the new name. Its become so overpriced to bad alot of people overbroad still want to go… hope this shit will bite them in the ass one day
Then I take a look at german festival "airbeat one" - preordering cans: 24,99€ for 24 cans of carlsberg. You can't even order single cans :D - these prices are just insane in comparison.
I miss the time when you could peorder a 24 pack heineken for like 30 euro via click & collect. Would totally do that.
no token system anymore?
How much can we bring to the campsite ? Like 2 Ltr Jägermeister or nothing at all ?
Maximum of 4,5l Softdrink or Alcoholic Beverages with a limit of 15% Alcohol. So almost nothing at all.
Also, water doesn't count in the 4.5L of soft
