ITS-Reizen

Coach travel to Defqon.1.

Off to Defqon.1 with a large group? On an ITS-Reizen coach or double-decker, the whole group travels to Biddinghuizen together. We provide an experienced driver, a schedule that suits a long festival day and room for luggage if you are staying to camp.

One vehicle for the whole group

A festival like Defqon.1 attracts groups who want to experience it together, and that starts on the coach. Everyone boards at the same time, the group stays together and the journey to Biddinghuizen is part of the day from the start.

We run coaches with 55 to 66 seats and double-deckers for 90 people. For even larger groups, we deploy several vehicles on one shared schedule.

  • Double-decker for 90 people
  • Second driver for a late return journey
  • Several coaches on one schedule
  • Room for camping gear

Choosing between a coach and a double-decker

With 50 to 66 people, the group fits in one coach. Any more, and a double-decker is often the best choice: two decks, room for 90 people, and a toilet and onboard kitchen on board. That way the whole group stays in one vehicle. You can read more about this coach under double-decker coach hire. We are happy to advise on the combination that best suits the number of people and the luggage. Especially for a weekend with camping, the luggage plays a part in that choice.

Driving and rest times on a long festival day

A day visit to a festival lasts a long time, and the driver must comply with statutory working and rest times. We work out the entire programme in advance, from departure to arriving home. If the day is too long for one driver, a second driver comes along, or a rested driver takes over for the return journey. That way the journey home is just as safe as the journey there, even if the festival goes on late. We include the extra driver in the quote in advance, so you are not faced with a surprise afterwards.

Several coaches at once

If you are organising transport for a very large group, we run several coaches or double-deckers. They leave at the same time, stop at the same pick-up points and drop the group off at the same spot at the festival. For the return journey, we agree on one meeting point. You have one contact person at ITS who arranges the transport for all the vehicles, which gives the organiser a clear overview. The group can appoint a group leader per vehicle to keep the list of names.

Camping and luggage

If your group is staying on the campsite for the weekend, a lot of luggage comes along. A coach has a spacious luggage hold under the floor, and a double-decker has even more. Let us know in advance how many people are coming and roughly how much gear they are bringing, and we will make sure everything fits. For a weekend we run an outward and a return journey, and the coach does not need to stay in between. Bags with a label on them are quickly found on Sunday after the festival, when everyone is looking for their things at once.

A relaxed journey home

After a day or weekend of hardstyle, the return journey is above all a moment to recover. On a coach you have plenty of space, the driver knows the route and you do not have to keep an eye on anything. We agree with the organiser in advance on behaviour on board and on the meeting point, so nobody misses the coach. A group that knows where it stands gets home relaxed. Anyone who needs a stop along the way arranges it with the driver via the contact person. The driver then sees where it fits within the route and the rest times.

Frequently asked questions

Is a double-decker available for Defqon.1?
That depends on the date. Our two double-deckers are in demand in summer, so request a quote as early as possible.
Will a second driver come along?
Yes, if the day is too long for one driver. We work that out in advance and include it in the quote.
Can several vehicles drive the same route?
Yes. For large groups we plan several coaches with the same departure time, pick-up points and drop-off spot.
Does the coach have to stay all weekend?
No. For a weekend with camping, we run an outward journey and a separate return journey on the last day.
Who is the point of contact during the journey?
We ask the group to appoint one contact person, who stays in touch with the driver and with us if anything changes.
