Give Soul Festival

By shuttle bus: You can order your shuttle bus ticket in advance from our here. On the spot tickets will be more expensive and the festival grounds are not accessible by car or public transport. The shuttle buses will depart from metro station Slinge and the kiss & ride area at Parmentierplein, Rotterdam.

By car: During the Give Soul festival the RDM area gets extended, therefore there is no parking area nearby. You can leave your car at the parking lot next to Parmentierplein and take a shuttle bus from there.

By bike or scooter: From central station it takes 34 minutes to get to the RDM grounds by bike. Bikes and scooters can be parked only in the designated areas, otherwise they will be removed.

By water taxi ferry: The water taxi ferries run every 15 minutes from Marconistraat to the RDM grounds. These need to be reserved in advance through the water taxi website or the app (one-way ticket costs €6,50). The regular ferry costs €2,00 and it goes every 30 minutes. Please note that these are not reliable options for going back after the festival because the ferries only run until 21.00.
