Once the reservation is made, you will receive a confirmation email. A few days before the event, you will receive an email with a QR code and an overview of how to get your locker.

Security

Les Ardentes is first and foremost a time to celebrate. Our priority is of course the safety of the public, the artists and the festival staff.

As an open and friendly festival, Les Ardentes does not tolerate any misbehavior in terms of equality. Be cool and respect each other. Let everyone enjoy the festival without any inconvenience.

In preparation for this new edition, we have put in place the most appropriate reinforced security measures. In the past weeks we have intensified contacts with the police and local authorities, plans have been adapted and additional measures have been taken. For obvious security reasons, we cannot communicate them in detail but we can confirm an increased police presence in and around the festival grounds. There will also be more security guards.

The controls at the entrance of the festival will be reinforced. Small backpacks (less than 45 cm high) and handbags will be allowed but will be strictly controlled. Visitors will be asked to open their bags spontaneously and show their contents to the control staff.

We will do our utmost to ensure that these additional security measures can take place in the friendly atmosphere of the Ardentes. We would like to thank you for your understanding and cooperation in implementing these measures.

TIP: Do not come to the festival with unnecessary items. If possible, do not bring a backpack or handbag.
