They changed it to 'camerabags are allowed' a few days ago but it seems they removed that bit again.

We are sorry to inform you that the doors at the BAFDAYS are closed from now on. Do not come any longer at the Florennes Air Base today.
The tickets unused this saturday will be valid for this sunday.
The people aldready in the queue will be able to enter.

Apperently due to rain and traffic movement on the parkings there is a lot of mud on the parking area's. That means huge traffic problems and lot of people parked arround the airbase or in the towncentre of Florennes....
Planed to go on sunday, but i don't think all the parkings will be open... :|

Apparently on sunday only admission with tickets bought in presale. There will be no ticketsales at the gate tomorrow.

It seems this info is on the official Facebookpage of BAFDays, but can't check, 'cause no FB for me

However, i've tried to buy some tickets online a few moments ago, but that isn't possible anymore.

A damn shame.


Edit: i was able to see the FB-page without account. Indeed impossible to go tomorrow without presale tickets! https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_ ... _tn__=%2As

Cheers,

Jeroen

Hello all,

I've seen conflicting reports about camerabags being allowed or not. Can anyone shed more light on this? Have more people than the one who posted in this topic earlier been refused entry because they had a large camera backpack?

Been there today, WITH a large camera backpack, very strict security check, we had to take everything out for checking, but after that no problems....

Parkinglot was very muddy....

Nice to mention: park & piss (toilet): FREE, happy Dutch men over here.. :wink:
