Celebrating 40 years of defining European culture, Belgium’s mecca of music Rock Werchter is once again an unmissable fixture of the summer musical scene, with a lineup full of game-changers and undisputed modern icons.

Once a year, super-festival Rock Werchter takes over the otherwise quaint and picturesque Belgian village of Werchter and transforms it into a haven for all music lovers. Known for its stellar lineups that have previously featured The Chemical Brothers, Kings of Leon, Depeche Mode and Biffy Clyro, it’s no surprise that Rock Werchter attracts 85,000 people per day. Taking place over 4 amazing days, the festival spreads its 75-act bill across three phenomenal stages, with landmark festival moments abound at every turn.
