We work with a deposit system on all cups during this event. By doing this, we make sure that all materials are collected and sorted in the right container. After the event, each material is recycled. This way of recycling is very easy, with much love for nature and a perfect way to reduce our waste!

How does it work?

  1. When purchasing a drink, every visitor must pay a deposit of 2 euros on their first hard cup or bottle of water.
  2. If you get a new drink, you can return it for a new hard cup or a recycle token.
  3. Have you lost your cup or bottle? Then you pay another 2 euro deposit!
  4. At the end of the event you return your hard cup in exchange for a recycle token
  5. The recycle token contains a unique code with which you can win various prizes!

Before entering the event you will be able to deposit drugs in the designated drug bins without being charged with any consequences. 

Make sure you celebrate safe!

TICKETS

Where can I buy tickets?

You can purchase entrance tickets for the Wonderland Festival events here. Eventix is our official ticket platform. After buying your tickets, you will receive a confirmation email from Eventix with your order. 

What are the differences between the entrance tickets?

There is no difference between the entrance tickets. We work in tiers. Early ticket buyers have more advantage regarding buying a ticket with a discount. The later you will buy your ticket, the more expensive it will be.

I can’t find my ticket?

No worries! You can find your ticket through this link: https://eventix.nl/search. Still can’t find your ticket? Please contact: tickets@eventix.nl

I’ve bought a locker ticket online and I did not receive an e-mail one day before the event from the locker company?

Which payment methods are available to purchase tickets?

You can pay with iDeal, Bancontact, Sofort, CreditCard and PayPal through our official ticket channel Eventix.

The event is sold out, how can I get a ticket?

Unfortunately if the event is sold out, it is not possible to purchase tickets through Eventix our ticketing platform. You can visit www.ticketswap.nl to try and purchase safely secondary hand tickets with their secure swapping system.

What are ‘sealed tickets’ and why can’t I download the tickets?

Recently Wonderland switched to a new kind of tickets: sealed tickets. These tickets can only be viewed and downloaded shortly before the event. When it’s time to download your tickets, you will get a notification by email from Eventix (our ticket provider). If you’ve purchased tickets for a group of people, you’ll be able to assign the tickets or send them to your friends once they are available for download.

Why does Wonderland have ‘sealed tickets’?

Wonderland uses these sealed tickets because the ticket sale will be fairer. By using these tickets, it makes it impossible for scammers to resell their tickets through unofficial third parties/secondary markets. Tickets can only be sold through our verified partner ‘TicketSwap’ by Secure Swap. Through Secure Swap they exchange the ticket for a brand new one, so the buyer has a 100% chance to get into the event with the ticket. Also, it is not possible for sellers to ask more than 120% of the price through TicketSwap, so the ticket will always be sold for a fair price.

Is it possible to resell my ‘sealed tickets’?

If you decide to sell your ticket, it is only possible to do so through our verified partner ‘TicketSwap’. You need your confirmation email to view your order. At the bottom of your order you will find a blue button, click the button to resell the tickets on TicketSwap. Only this way you can resell your tickets. Can’t find your confirmation mail with your order? You can find your ticket through this link: https://eventix.nl/search. Still can’t find your ticket? Please contact: tickets@eventix.nl

Keep in mind that the maximum asking price for a resold ticket is 120% of the original ticket price and that selling your ticket(s) to a new visitor always happens through Secure Swap. After selling, you can no longer use the ticket as it will be declared invalid.
