About Rock Werchter:
Rock Werchter 2014 will be taking place from Thursday 3 July to Sunday 6 July. Over four days on the Festival grounds in Werchter (Belgium), you will be able to see music’s finest on three stages: Main Stage, KluB C and The Barn. At Rock Werchter we firmly believe in bringing together a mix of different genres, and that’s proved very popular. Rock Werchter is an international hit and has been awarded multiple prizes. Last year’s four-day festival attracted some 140,000 (individual) festival-goers from far and wide and was completely sold out in advance.
