FAQ
Have questions about the gathering?
We have answers!
When and where can I buy a ticket?
Tickets are exclusively available through this website. Tickets are sold through a tiered pricing model, so the sooner you buy a ticket, the cheaper it will be! There are also special deals for youth, Eastern European participants, groups and GEN Europe members. Read more about the different tickets on the ticketing page.
Can I buy a day pass?
The Gathering is a journey in building community and solutions together as one – that’s why we don’t sell day tickets.
CAN I BUY A TICKET ON SITE?
In previous editions of the Gathering we have had a small number of tickets available on site although we do have a maximum holding capacity in Nature Community and cannot guarantee that tickets will be available if we sell out beforehand.

Can I make a fire on the campsite?
Individual fires on the campsites are not allowed. However there will be designated bonfire places in the public areas.
