FAQ
New This Year:
Wristband pick-up points!
For a significantly smoother festival experience this year, we are introducing two pick-up points where you have to exchange your ticket for a wristband.
One at Operaplein and one at KdG Hogeschool Groenplaats (entrance via Pandstraat).
IMPORTANT:
• There will be NO wristbands available at the doors of any venue this year.
• Everyone must visit one of these two pick-up points first to get secured for entry.
• Wristbands can only be collected on the day corresponding to the ticket you purchased.
• Combi tickets can be picked up on all days (7, 8 and 10 November).
• EXCEPTION: Only on Monday you’ll also be able to exchange your ticket for a Full Circle wristband at Antwerp Expo, starting from 22:00 untill 03:00.
General Information
When and where will Full Circle take place?
Full Circle takes place on Friday 7, Saturday 8 and Sunday 10 November 2025 across multiple venues in Antwerp, Belgium. Please check out our locations tab for a complete list of the participating venues.
What are the opening hours?
This depends on the venue – as opening hours are different at each location. Please check the events tab on this website to see the exact opening hours.
Is there a minimum age?
The minimum age at all Full Circle events is 18+. However, events at WOOM and Leienpaleis have a 21+ age policy.
Is the festival wheelchair friendly?
This depends from location to location. Please check the venue’s websites for more information about wheelchair accessibility.
Do you hire volunteers?
Unfortunately, our volunteer spots are already taken. However, we work with Deltaworx (students) and NAFT (regular volunteers) to supplement our volunteer program, so if you want to be a part of Full Circle, we will happily redirect you to these companies.
Which venues can I enter with my ticket?
Your Full Circle ticket grants you access to all participating venues on the day of your visit. However, please note that not all locations are open every day. Additionally, once a venue reaches its capacity, we won’t be able to admit more people, even with a valid ticket. Popular events may have waiting lines, so we recommend checking our website throughout the night. A live heatmap will show real-time updates from each venue, helping you see whether there’s a queue or a location is full or empty before you head over.
How do I know which venues are full?
Popular events may have waiting lines, so we recommend checking our website throughout the night. A live heatmap will show real-time updates from each venue, helping you see whether there’s a queue or a location is full or empty before you head over.
Can I pay with cash?
For Drinks:
Full Circle does not manage all bars, so check the website from each venue. At our own bars, at both Antwerp Central and China Star, customers can pay with cash by loading the amount onto a cash card, which can be used to purchase drinks at the bars. Each location has one cash point where this can be done. The cash card costs €2 to purchase, and be aware: the leftover value is non-refundable. Treat your cashless card as cash, in case of loss you will not be refunded. Please check out our cashless policy here: terms & conditions.
For Tickets:
As Full Circle is most probably selling out soon, the best is to buy your tickets online. At this moment cash ticket sales are not foreseen.
For all others (lockers, toilets, etc.):
Full Circle is not running these services at all venues and we would advice to bring your credit or debit cards AND cash.
Will there be a cloakroom?
Most venues offer lockers or a supervised cloakroom, but please note that some locations, such as China Star and Stormkop, only have an unsupervised cloakroom.
Our organization is not responsible for any loss, theft, or damage to belongings left in lockers or cloakrooms, whether supervised or unsupervised, and regardless of whether they are managed by us or an external provider. We strongly encourage visitors to avoid leaving valuables in lockers or cloakrooms and to keep personal belongings secure at all times.
Is the Sweet Nothing hosting a seperate event?
Pegassi and Sweet Nothing are taking over Antwerp Expo on Monday November 10 and there are two types of tickets for this event. You can secure a Full Circle ticket for access to all venues throughout the extended weekend, including Antwerp Expo, or grab a dedicated Sweet Nothing ticket for this one-night-only takeover. Both type of tickets can be found in de ticketshop.
Are there any special hotel deals for ticket holders?
Yes! We’ve partnered with A-Stay in Antwerp to offer our visitors an exclusive, discounted rate for the event weekend. This partnership ensures you have a smart, comfortable, and conveniently located place to stay while you enjoy the festival. A-Stay is situated right next to Antwerpen-Centraal Station, providing excellent transport links.

Transport
How do I get to Full Circle?
Full Circle takes place across many different venues in Antwerp, so travel info depends from location to location. However, we strongly advise using public transport, as parking is not always an available or accessible option. If you want to travel between different venues during the night (when trams and buses are not running), you can use other options like Donkey Republic, Velo, Get Driven, Swapfiets, felyx and many other ride-sharing apps. Sharing a taxi with other dancers is also highly recommended.
Can I still take the train to Antwerpen Centraal?
Trains to and from Antwerpen Centraal still follow their regular schedule. Full Circle takes place in the station’s central hall, which can be sealed off from the rest of the station. Do you want to catch a train while the music is still playing? Just enter the station from the side entrance to access the platforms.
How can I go from venue to venue?
Our transport page will go live soon – including special deals with our partners Vélo, Swapfiets, Donkey Republic, Get Driven and felyx. In the meantime, we strongly advise using public transport, as parking is not always an available or accessible option. If you want to travel between different venues during the night (when trams and buses are not running), you can use other options like ride-sharing apps. Sharing a taxi with other dancers is also highly recommended.
Where can I park?
We do not advise taking your car to a Full Circle event, and we do not provide additional parking for our events. If you must travel by car, use the available parking garages near the venue you want to visit.
