The trip to the court can be quite a long ride
Let this info page be your guide!
Welcome to Fantasy Court 2025! This edition of the festival will take place on June 8 in Eindhoven on the TU/e campus, from 11:00 to 18:00! As soon as the information is made public, you will be able to find an overview of our program, the registered vendors and organizations, and a list of activities on the Programme page. To help you find your way here, we have also included some more practical info:
There are a number of food stalls at the event. There is also a tap for free water nearby (but no free cups, so bring your own mug or bottle). There will be a mobile toilet unit set up at the event, including a large stall for those with mobility aids or large costumes.
The event is on a field with no individual address on the Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) campus. The navigation address for the event and the nearby parking lot is: Den Dolech 12, 5613 AZ, Eindhoven. Fantasy Court is slightly to the south of this point, at the following coordinates: 51.44723, 5.48424
We are just a few minutes' walk to the northeast from the train- and bus station Eindhoven Centraal. Some small directional signs will also be set up on and near the campus.
Parking at the TU/e campus is free only for the first 30 minutes, and costs €0.50 per 15 minutes beyond that, up to a maximum of €7.50 in one day. Off-campus parking is free on the Rachelsmolen or along the nearby parallel road Onze Lieve Vrouwestraat.
Carrying foam larp swords at Fantasy Court is permitted. Visitors may fight, duel, and spar using foam larp props at the designated spots on the tournament field and around the border of the site. Each person is responsible for the safety of their own larp props. The event organizers may at any time check foam props and ask for unsafe items to be removed from the site. Anyone participating in larp battles must take the safety rules (see below) into account.
Carrying or fighting with hard wooden, metal, or plastic weapons is not permitted, and neither is carrying very realistic larp prop weapons. Fantasy Court is held in a public area, and thus must comply with local laws concerning weaponry. Knives or other weapons purchased on site must remain in packaging at all times.
The golden rule is ”don’t do anything that forces us to make our weapon policy stricter”. Use common sense, and don’t push the boundaries of the festival rules. Only in this way can we all continue to enjoy the current level of freedom.
