The festival is not far from the railway station:
http://maps.google.be/maps?f=d&sourc...,0.013733&z=16

You could take the train from London to Brussels (Eurostar): http://www.eurostar.com/UK/be/leisur...on_ashford.jsp

In Brussels there is a train to Lokeren for 7 euro: http://www.b-rail.be/main/E/index.php (Brussels South - Lokeren)

One slight problem perhaps, there is no camping at the festival. But several other options possible: http://www.lokersefeesten.be/en/practical/tourist-info

haha I'm not from UK
I've checked that probably the cheapest would be the flight (for me) to Charleroi. I'm not sure yet and I must ask my friends if they would go there with me. also buying the ticket for the gig might be quite troublesome, I must get credit card. and this time I would have to tell about that my parents. that won't be nice. but it looks like I'd pay not more than 110 pounds and that's quite nice for 3 days including flight.

HOLY FUCK YESSSSSSSS. I missed Pukkelpop last year (I live in the Netherlands) and I vowed that if they were to perform in Belgium again I'd be there.

EDIT: You arranged it? YOU ARE A STAR!

Oops, I always presume everybody here at FD comes from the UK

The cheapest option by plane is flying to Charleroi, that's true. I know there are several shuttles (by bus) from Charleroi to Brussels, where you can take the train to Lokeren.

110 pounds for 3 days = discount prices

no problem.
now I must find out if my friends are coming too. I don't wanna go there alone, I know I'm there for the Manics but still small girl in a different country = not good. also my parents have to know THIS TIME about the gig. they won't believe that my uni organizes the trip to Brussel during holiday.
and let's say I can spare some money

I agree, going all alone is less fun. In good company with your friends the experience is much better (in my opinion).
I hope your parents allow you to come to Belgium... Good luck!
