Fans of the Belgian alternative music festival Dour will be able to celebrate for a whole week when the festival returns in 2022 after a 2-year absence.
A five day XXL edition of the festival had already been announced and this has now been extended even further to include the pre-festival Dour CampFest.
"In July 2022, you'll have to bring your extra t-shirts and socks," organisers announced in an update.
"3 days of warm-up, for the most faithful DOUREUUUH! community, to the rhythms of sound systems, nature and surprises of all kinds. 3 days to warm up before the start of a milestone Dour Festival. 3 days of a collective experience to get back together before getting lost between the 8 stages and 250 artists of the Dour Festival."
