GRISEFEST FAQ
QUESTIONS & THE FINE PRINT
TICKETS
We’ve Purchased Deluxe Tickets – How Does It Work?
Your ticket includes dining, and the event begins at 12:00. We will serve our Gorilla Grisefest menu, including water
Seating is arranged at shared table/bench sets, meaning you may be seated with guests outside your own group.
Lunch is normally served outdoors, but in case of unsuitable weather, dining will move indoors/under cover.
The Deluxe area is fenced off, theres is a Private Bar only for deluxe-guests (it will be open to everyone, after the dinner is done) and Deluxe guests are welcome to stay at their bench throughout the day.
We’ve Purchased Music Tickets – How Does It Work?
Music tickets grant access to the festival grounds, bars, and unreserved benches starting from 13:00.
Music ticket holders do not have access to Deluxe dining areas, VIP sections, or pre-booked benches.
We’ve Purchased a Bench – How Does It Work?
If you have purchased a bench, you may collect up to 8 bench wristbands, giving your group exclusive access to a bench for the entire day. You will receive a sign to place on the bench, marking it as reserved. It is your own responsibility to stay around or near your bench.
Benches are allocated on a first come, first served basis. If you wish to sit close to the stage, we recommend arriving early.
Pitchers and shots included with the bench can be collected upon arrival.

For 2026, we have made adjustments in case the weather doesn’t cooperate. Large parts of the festival grounds will be covered, including areas around the bars and along Gorilla’s façade.
We cannot guarantee full coverage near the stage or across the entire festival area, so we recommend dressing appropriately for the weather.
