Who we are
D.I.Y. till we die
Rattle the Barn is not an idea on paper but a place built by people. There are no big structures behind this festival, only families, friendships and a shared belief in carrying, listening and living together.
The festival is located in a restored 160 year old brick barn at De Laerehoeve, Bart’s yard. Camping is free, so are the showers. Everyone is welcome exactly as they are.
Practical
Getting here
Half an hour from Bruges and Ghent, out in the fields. Coming by car? You can camp on the back of the site.
Camping & showers
Free, on the back of the property.
Car, bicycle, train
Free parking in the meadow beside the yard. Bicycle racks at the gate.
Accessibility
Wheelchair spaces and a paved path all the way to the barn. Let us know in advance.
Short and simple
No racism, no sexism, no nonsense. Clean up your own mess! Dogs are welcome on the (camp)site, not in the barn.
