\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The King Baudouin stadium is divided into four different coloured stands to help you find your seat: <\/p>\n

Stand 1: red<\/p>\n

Stand 2: yellow<\/p>\n

Stand 3: green<\/p>\n

Stand 4: blue<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Block naming is organised counter-clockwise (the direction of a race) and from bottom to top.<\/p>\n

The numbering of the rows follows the same logic: row 1 at ground level, up to row 44 at the highest level.<\/p>\n

Seat numbering follows the same logic: seat 1 on the right, seat 38 on the left of a row. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n


<\/p>


<\/p>

During concerts, Stand 1 is usually occupied by the stage and the ground is covered to create a “pit” in which spectators stand.<\/span>
<\/p>\n

In the pit, you can seat where you want.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n


<\/span><\/p>


<\/span><\/p>

Outside, ten access gates can be used to enter the stadium. During large-scale events, each visitor with a ticket is allocated an entrance door. In most cases, the entrance doors are the same colour as the stand where you are seated (see map).<\/span><\/p>\n

Refer to the access map provided by the organiser of the event you are attending to find out about the specific access requirements for each event. <\/p>\n

Other than major events (to access sports activities organised within the stadium, to get to private events, to access offices or for deliveries), access to the stadium is via the Marathon gate.    <\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Special services <\/strong><\/p>

During the major events taking place at the King Baudouin stadium, the frequency of metro, tram and bus services will be increased.

Ask the organiser of the event you wish to attend about the special services being put in place for your event.\u00a0<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Where possible, we advise you not to use a car to get to the stadium for major events in order to avoid congestion at major events.<\/p>

To avoid the predictable traffic jams around King Baudouin Stadium, why don\u2019t out use the Park & Ride<\/strong> service instead.

All events at the King Baudouin stadium are accessible to people with reduced mobility. However, the stadium’s stands do not have a lift and are therefore not wheelchair accessible.<\/p>

For concerts, a raised platform is usually put in place by the organisers to ensure easy access and good visibility not only for visitors in wheelchairs but also for anyone who has difficulty walking or standing (due to disability, illness or injury).\u00a0<\/p>

During sporting events, special areas are set aside for PRM, usually at the bottom of Stand 1 or on the athletics track.\u00a0<\/p>

PRM and those accompanying them must purchase special tickets for these areas, which are specially reserved for them at major events. Therefore, do not buy your tickets via the standard ticket office. Contact the event organisers directly to find out how to proceed.\u00a0<\/p>

As far as parking is concerned, for most major events, a car park is provided in the immediate vicinity of the stadium for people with reduced mobility. This is available by reservation only. You must contact the organisers of the event you wish to attend directly.\u00a0 Apart from during major events (to access sports activities organised within the stadium, to attend private events, to access offices or for deliveries), you can park in the car parks located inside the stadium (access via avenue de Marathon).\u00a0<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
