Regular - from 18 years: €285,- *
Child tickets 4 to 11 years: €45,
Child tickets 12 to 17 years: €65,-

The Good Travel
A large part of the climate footprint of Into The Great Wide Open – and most other festivals – is not at the festival itself, but in the journey to get there. Almost half of the emissions come from visitor transport, mainly from fossil-fueled cars. It’s going in the right direction, because for the first time in 2025, more than half of the visitors (51%) traveled sustainably to the festival. However, the other 49% still drove about 1.2 million fossil kilometers in total. That’s a pity, because the alternatives are available, and they are more enjoyable.
With each ticket this year, the Good Journey surcharge of €15 is again included. If you travel sustainably, you can refund this amount. If you, as a visitor, decide to leave the surcharge? Then it will automatically go to the Transition Fund.

Personalize
After purchasing tickets, we ask you to personalize the festival tickets. This can be done immediately, but can also be done at a later time, until the start of the festival. You can do this via the confirmation email from Paylogic. Did you buy tickets for your friends? Then we also ask you to personalize your friends' tickets. They will receive a confirmation by email. It is possible to change the name on your personalized ticket. Go to 'Order status' via your confirmation email from Paylogic, at the bottom of the email. You can change the name on the ticket via the 'Name change' button. If it doesn’t work, you can also take a look at the explanation from Paylogic. Stortemelk camping vouchers, vouchers for De Lange Paal, and children's tickets (ages 4 to 17) do not need to be personalized.
Lost your ticket?
Through this link you can easily view your order and have access to your tickets.
Sell ticket(s)?
From February 2nd 12:00 until July 1st 12:00, it is possible to offer festival tickets and vouchers for De Lange Paal on the Waiting List. The confirmation email from Paylogic contains the button 'MyOrder'. There you indicate which tickets you want to offer.
Do you still have a ticket left that you want to sell after July 1st? Then you can offer your ticket from July 1st 12:00 PM on the Resale Platform.
The original buyer – also known as the main buyer – is the only one who can offer tickets and receive money back. This applies even if tickets have already been personalized or transferred to a different name through name change.
We do not accept returned tickets.
Tickets via third parties
Into The Great Wide Open does not sell tickets through third parties. To minimize the risk of ticket resale at inflated prices, tickets are only sold through our own website. If you cannot secure tickets during the pre-sale for Into The Great Wide Open, never purchase your ticket(s) through channels that do not belong to intothegreatwideopen.nl. Check Know Where You Buy for an almost complete overview of black market sellers.
Do you see an external party selling tickets? Don't be tempted. Such websites typically operate as follows: they often offer tickets for sale before the official sale has started. They assume they can obtain tickets, only to sell them at higher prices later. However, those channels have just as much chance of securing tickets as any other potential buyer; we will never collaborate with them. It’s good to know that we only send the e-tickets to ticket buyers just before the festival. By delaying the ticket delivery, we hope to prevent the circulation of invalid tickets.
Mobile Tickets Only
To combat black market activities, we work at Into The Great Wide Open with Mobile Ticket Only. You can view and manage your order via the button in your confirmation email. No later than 48 hours before the event, your QR code(s) will be made available here. These QR code(s) are your access ticket to the festival.
You can also add the tickets to your Apple or Google Wallet on your mobile phone. This way, the QR codes are always available offline. Very handy when the network in Vlieland is not working well.

Sustainable travel options
Sustainable travel options
If you travel fossil-free to Into The Great Wide Open, you will be welcomed as a FIP: Fossil-free Important Person. You will receive a warm welcome, unexpected extras, and your €15 Good Travel Allowance back in the form of consumption credit. Check out all the options below:
Festival bus: Arriva Touring
From Amsterdam and Utrecht, you can travel most comfortably to the ferry terminal with the Fossil-free festival buses from Arriva Touring. For almost every boat, there is a bus, and they align with the departure times of the ferry service. Book your tickets here.
Book your spot on the Arriva bus now with the code ITGWO2026 and get a 50% discount on your bus ticket. Be quick, as supplies are limited!
Children up to and including 11 years can travel for free.
Public transport
Harlingen Harbour is easily accessible by train and bus during the festival weekend. There are several ways to book your tickets:
If you are traveling with NS, it is advantageous to book a group ticket and/or to travel with a companion discount.
Are you coming from Friesland or Groningen? For only €12.50 per person, you can travel all day without limit on all trains and buses of Arriva in those provinces.
Traveling with NS is completely fossil-free because it runs on 100% wind turbine energy. Unfortunately, the section between Leeuwarden and Harlingen Haven with the Arriva train is not fossil-free, but we include it in our CO2 cleaning program.
Sailing
The most beautiful way to get to Vlieland is by sailing boat. Every year, a number of ships from the Bruine Vloot cross the Wadden Sea, and there is always room for passengers. More info will follow here soon.
Fossil-free car
Do you have an electric car? Then it's easy: there are charging points in Harlingen-Harbour at Long Parking (P1/P2/P3) and plenty of fast chargers along the route.
Do you have a diesel car? Then refuel with renewable diesel at one of these 120+ filling stations along the route. This can be done in any diesel vehicle and provides a fossil CO2 saving of 85%.
Fossil-free shared cars
Neem een elektrische deelauto met bijvoorbeeld MyWheels, SIXT share, SnappCar, Greenwheels, Free2move of Check. Er zijn laadpunten in Harlingen-Haven bij Lang Parkeren (P1/P2/P3) en genoeg snelladers langs de route.
Car on fossil fuels = not a good journey
Kom je toch met de auto op fossiele brandstof? Overweeg dan nog een laatste keer of je écht geen fossielvrije reisoptie kan gebruiken dit jaar. Er zijn anno nu voldoende betaalbare fossielvrije opties beschikbaar. Zorg in ieder geval dat je auto zo vol mogelijk zit en gebruik Slinger om de lege stoelen te vullen. Samen op weg naar een klimaatpositief festival.
Er zijn verschillende parkeermogelijkheden in de buurt van Harlingen Haven. Hier vind je de verschillende opties in Harlingen en op de route daar naartoe. Je kan ook alvast je parkeerplek reserveren. De locatie Lang Parkeren (op vijftien minuten lopen van de terminal) heeft ook een pendeldienst naar de terminal van Rederij Doeksen.
Zorg er in verband met de verwachte drukte voor dat je ruim op tijd op de parkeerplaats in Harlingen bent. Wil je zonder stress de boot pakken, zorg dan dat je anderhalf tot twee uur voor de afvaart aanwezig bent. Een bakje koffie of ijs van Min12 doet de tijd dan makkelijk doden.
Biking
Fietsen is de meest duurzame manier om op Into The Great Wide Open te komen. Trek er tijd voor uit en maak een mooie tocht. Plan via Komoot of de routeplanner van de Fietsersbond de mooiste fietsroutes vanaf huis naar de veerterminal in Harlingen Haven. En vergeet je banden niet op te pompen.

You can stay in a cabin for 2 people or 4 people. Every morning, the crew of the ship prepares a skipper's breakfast for you. The ships are not only for overnight stays but also for relaxing on deck, playing games in the cozy day room, or enjoying a nice shower. Booking can be done via this link.
Other accommodations
You can also stay in one of the many other accommodations on Vlieland, such as hotels and holiday homes. You can book these, among others, through the site of VVV Vlieland or Op-Vlieland.
Even more Vlieland
Vlieland has more to offer than just Into The Great Wide Open. So definitely come a few days earlier or extend your stay after the festival. Year-round, local entrepreneurs cultivate, grow, create, and produce regional products. Visit Wadden has mapped these entrepreneurs. Literally. Discover them and the island through the inspiration map and experience the richness of the island.

Accessibility
Rent a bike
Once on Vlieland, it is easy and practical to get around by bicycle. To start looking for your ideal two-wheeler, pedal over to the websites of Jan van Vlieland, Frisia, or Zeelen.
Park your bike at the various festival locations in the designated areas, and not in the first edge of the forest you come across.
The campsite Lange Paal is located a bit further from the festival locations, and therefore we advise festival visitors who have set up their camp there to rent a bicycle. There are also buses running between Lange Paal and the festival grounds according to the regular schedule.
Distance festival locations
The distance to the locations varies each year, but in principle, all festival locations are within walking distance of each other. If you prefer to get around by bike on the island, you can rent a bike from the various bike rental companies on the island.
Extra accessible facilities
Into The Great Wide Open takes place in nature, where the ground can be soft and bumpy. Unfortunately, this makes it not the most wheelchair-friendly festival in the Netherlands. But: where there’s a will…
At the festival, there is an extra accessible toilet available at the Sports Field. Need help? Talk to one of our staff members. They will assist you with all their love.
For specific questions or more information, you can contact us at info@intothegreatwideopen.nl. We are happy to help you.
