Free parking via Park & Ride at Forest National
Parking at P+R Ceria/Coovi is free as soon as you cover the rest of your route via STIB (for example, using the shuttle bus), and parking at P+R Stalle is always free. Skip paid parking around the venue (€5/hour) and choose one of these two Park & Rides instead.
Avoid parking directly around Forest National, where rates quickly reach €5 per hour. Instead, park at a Park & Ride (P+R) and cover the rest of your route by public transport. With your STIB Event Pass, public transport and the shuttle bus are free.
Note: the STIB Event Pass is only valid as a transport ticket on the day of your show, and only for your trip to and from Forest National.

How to use the shuttle bus
- Activate your STIB Event Pass. At entrance 1 of the Ceria/Coovi metro station (Bergensesteenweg 782), you'll find two ticket machines right next to the shuttle buses. At entrance 2, across from the P+R exit, there's a third machine. Here's how to activate your STIB Event Pass.
- Board the shuttle bus. Validate your Event Pass before boarding. The shuttle drops you off at the stop in front of Forest National.
- Return after the show. The shuttle buses wait in front of the venue. Show your Event Pass to a steward to receive an exit card for P+R Ceria/Coovi. Scan it when leaving the parking lot to open the barrier automatically.
Want to arrive earlier or later than the shuttle runs? Take metro line 5 to Veeweide, then transfer to bus 74 toward Uccle-Stalle and get off at Forest National.
