The Legendary Bracelet is provided to everyone in possession of a Defqon.1 Ticket. It serves as an entrance ticket and as a payment method during the event, and you are able to transfer money via the Defqon.1 app or on-site at the self-service station or at one of the top-up desks with staff. Premium ticket holders can use the bracelet to enter the Premium Decks.
Everyone in possession of a Defqon.1 Ticket will receive the Legendary Bracelet, both day visitors and weekend visitors. Only the main booker will receive all bracelets. Be aware of the fact the main booker is responsible for distributing the bracelets to their fellow Warriors.
We recommend not to wear the bracelet before Defqon.1. We understand you might be excited to put it on, but wearing it too early can increase the risk of damaging the RFID chip or getting it wet. To avoid any issues, keep it safe and dry until the event begins.
Your activated bracelet is your entrance. It’s all you need to enter Defqon.1. However, make sure you still have access to your valid e-ticket (on your phone or printed), as it may be required in case of any issues with your bracelet.
You will need the following:
Your bracelet must be scanned upon entry.
We advise not to shower with your bracelet or expose it to water and liquids.
You can keep your bracelet as a souvenir of your Defqon.1 journey.
The forms are only being sent out to the main booker. This will happen in batches, so it might take a little longer before you receive yours. Keep an eye on your inbox. All forms will be sent out by the end of week 14 at the latest.
The shipping of your bracelet depends on when the complete order is personalized and when the main buyer has filled in the correct shipping address.
If your complete order is personalized before May 1st, your bracelet will be shipped before the Warming-up event on May 22nd.
If your complete order is personalized after that date, we will do our best to ship it before Defqon.1, but this cannot be guaranteed.

In case the bracelets are not shipped to your country, you will receive an email from us with instructions on where to pick up the bracelets at the festival site. This email will be sent once you have personalized your tickets and filled in your details.
Only the main booker of the order will receive the Legendary Bracelets linked to the order. Once the bracelets are shipped, they will receive a confirmation email with a tracking link.
If you have any questions, please contact us at bracelet@q-dance.com.
Access to Defqon.1 is only possible with a bracelet. All bracelets will be shipped to the main booker, so it’s important to make clear arrangements within your group on how to distribute before Defqon.1. Once your tickets are personalized, the main booker will receive the address form. The bracelets will be shipped once the address has been filled in. If your ticket was purchased through the Waiting List, your bracelet may be shipped later.

The Waiting List gives you the opportunity to obtain sold-out tickets or sell your tickets for Defqon.1 2025 if you're no longer able to attend this edition. Due to the legendary bracelet shipping process, tickets for Defqon.1 2025 can only be bought or sold through the official Waiting List.
You can sell your tickets through the following steps:
1. Open your confirmation email and go to 'Manage Order'.
2. Select your order, click on 'More Actions' and choose 'Sell'.
3. Select the tickets you want to sell and click 'Confirm'.
Once a match is made with someone on the Defqon.1 Waiting List who wants to take over your ticket(s), you will receive your purchase amount back (ex service fee) via the payment method chosen for your order.
Only the main booker of the ticket(s) can return tickets. Did you receive your ticket through a friend in your account? Then you will need to ask that friend to sell your ticket through the account used for the order.

Select your preferred sold-out ticket type via the Waiting List. Once it becomes available, you’ll receive an email. Be quick, because once notified, you’ll have 72 hours to complete your order.
To increase your chances, submit a separate request for each ticket type you're interested in. For example, don’t combine a Friday, Saturday, and Sunday ticket in one order. Instead, create a separate request for each. This way, each ticket type is treated individually, improving your chances of a match.
