To gain access to the ZBF2023 you need to purchase a starter pack.

The starter pack for beer tasters includes the ZBF tasting glass, the program booklet, 10 tokens, free toilets, free parking and admission on 1 day (Saturday or Sunday – price 26€) or on both days (price 31 euros).

For those who think 10 tokens is too much for them and for non-beer drinkers, there is a “starter pack with no tokens” at €10.

Additional tokens are sold at 1.60€/piece at the cashier “tokens”. Payment can be made in cash, but preferably electronically (Payconiq or by card).

Our tokens can be used at the beer stands, but not at the food stalls.

If you are a member of Zythos vzw or another EBCU affiliated association, then you will receive 2 free tokens at the information stand, upon presentation of your membership card.

No individual tasting glasses are sold.

When you leave ZBF you can return your glass: you will then receive 2 € back and a contribution will also be made to charity . But of course you can also take your glass with you. And if you have a glass from a different year, you can exchange it for a 2023 glass.

Broken or damaged glasses are not returnable. And if you have a broken glass, you can obtain a new glass at the cashier in exchange of a deposit of €3.

In presales you enjoy a 10% discount on the starter packs and you can also buy additional sets of 10, 20, 30 or 40 tokens with a 10% discount. You pay online and receive a confirmation ticket per person. With this ticket (printed or on your smartphone) you come to the special entrance “presales” and on Saturday you get access to the hall one hour earlier so that you can be the first to discover all the beers.
