I have been to over 10 festivals in the last 2 years and Verknipt Festival is always on my bucket list π€ I can't wait to be raving in the sun with all of you. Personally I have been to Utrecht multiple times due to work and private trips, so I also know the city on a good level :)
We will be staying in a hostel in the city center of Utrecht, where we can easily meet other ravers who are going to Verknipt. The breakfast is included in the price. Utrecht can be expensive in terms of hotels and Airbnb options, so hostels allow us to keep costs low without sacrificing the experience. Any questions about the trip? You can let me know in the Q&A section!
