Public transport - easy by tram or train to Ed Sheeran

TRAM
There are 4 tram lines running to the concert site:  

  • Tram 3 (P&R Merksem - P&R Melsele)
  • Tram 5 (Wijnegem - P&R Linkeroever)
  • Tram 9 (Silsburg - Berchem Station - P&R Linkeroever)
  • Tram 15 (P&R Boechout - Regatta)

Plan your route with the De Lijn route planner. After the concert, extra trams will run on all these lines to take everyone home.

Get off at any of these stops. The other stops on Linkeroever cannot be used to reach the concert site:

What's included in your ticket?

  • Outward journey with a regular train (2nd class) of your choice in the direction of Antwerp-Central.
  • From Antwerp-Central you can easily change to tram 3, 5, 9 or 15 in the direction of the Van Eeden stop, near the concert site. For this you still need to purchase a De Lijn ticket yourself.
  • After the concert, an exclusive shuttle bus will be waiting for you at Van Eeden — only accessible to night train users — that will take you back to Antwerp Central Station in comfort.
  • You will then return on the special night train of your choice.
  • 24 hours of free parking in an SNCB station served by the night train. This way you can park your car safely and free of charge at the station and travel the rest of the journey by public transport.

Practical:

  • The special Ed Sheeran e-train ticket costs €15 (return).
  • Tickets will be available from 16 July 2025 — so order early to secure your spot!
  • Without this special ticket, you cannot use the shuttle buses and night trains.
