The buses are usually pretty cheap and take about 30 minutes from your favorite hotel in Mechelen to the town of Boom. Taxis are also available.

What’s it like going to a festival?
Tomorrowland is worth the fuss. It’s a truly amazing experience and I highly recommend going at least once. More countries participate in Tomorrowland than the Olympics. It’s a truly unique experience and a great way to feel connected. You’ll enjoy the best music, crazy lasers, fireworks, and elaborate displays. Tomorrowland really goes the extra mile when it comes to this festival. It’s well organized, easy to navigate, and safe. Each stage has its own theme with different types of music and decorations. For example, the water stage might have real flowers hanging from the awnings. The main stage might have acrobats performing while fire shoots out from different points.
Every year, a new theme is set that surpasses the previous year’s. I’m looking forward to seeing what the next theme will be.
