Disposition or a single transfer?

If you return in the evening to a hotel in Mons or to Brussels, choose disposition: the same chauffeur takes the group out and back at agreed times. If you're camping on site, two separate transfers are enough.

Is the price agreed in advance?

Yes, transfers are quoted before departure with tolls and VAT included. Disposition is billed per block of hours or as an evening rate, confirmed at booking, including for a late finish.

How do we book for several festival days?

Give us your festival days, your hotel and the number of passengers when booking; we plan the series of journeys in a single file with the same chauffeur, so you don't have to explain everything again each day.

Does the chauffeur wait until after the last act?

On a disposition, yes. We agree a pick-up point away from the busy exit, where your group can find each other easily and the vehicle can pull away without difficulty.

Private chauffeur — Dour Festival

Private Driver takes you to the Dour Festival in the Borinage and collects your group again at night: drop-off as close to the gates and the campsite as access allows, a spacious vehicle and a named chauffeur who stays and waits.

Festival in the Borinage

Five days of music, not one drive yourself

The Dour Festival is held on the Plaine de la Machine à Feu, south-west of Mons. It's reachable via the E19 and the E42, but the last kilometres run over country roads that saturate daily during the festival. Your chauffeur sets you down as close to the gates and the campsite as the organisers allow.

From Brussels allow a little over an hour, from Mons a quarter of an hour, from Antwerp roughly 1h45 and from Lille just under an hour. If you're staying at a hotel in Mons or Tournai, have the same run scheduled out and back on every festival day, with fixed times and the same chauffeur.

Five days of music with returns deep into the night: not the moment to take the wheel yourself. Your chauffeur is rested, pulls up at the agreed time and takes your group and the festival bags back to the hotel or home — a good deal more comfortable than a packed car share or an overloaded shuttle bus.

Festival operations

How we handle Dour Festival

The Machine à Feu plain, five days, and a ride home every night.

Drop-off at the plain

We set you down at the gate matching your wristband, as close as possible to the Machine à Feu plain, with no trek across the campsite carrying your things.

Access through the Borinage

The roads around Dour, Boussu and Quiévrain clog up in the late afternoon. Your chauffeur favours the E19 then the E42 and the local roads, and times the arrival to your first set.

Late-night sets

The stages run until dawn. Your named chauffeur stays on standby or comes back at the time you set by WhatsApp, four in the morning included.

A fixed quote home

Mons, Brussels, Lille, Antwerp or Brussels Airport: the quote is settled before departure and does not move because you left later than planned.
