The player fee covers a camping spot for three nights, three breakfasts, two dinners, one disc, three days of Ultimate, four days of festivities including multiple parties and plenty of entertainment. On average, players will pay €4 more compared to last year.
The Guest fee will cover all of the above, minus the Ultimate. Guests should pay the guest fee no later than April 30th.
Your camping spot is included in your player/guest fee. Please go to HQ before setting up your tents. Don't want to bring camping equipment to Windmill? Check out our newest partner, KarTent. They rent tents made out of recycled cardboard, but don't worry, they are waterproof!
If you prefer, you may also book a nearby hotel or hostel at your own expense, but more importantly you might miss out on the fun activities that will take place between 4pm and 3am. For the full experience, camp with us!
As is the case every year, we will be doing our absolute best to provide you with a choice of delicious and nutritious food, catering to all dietary requirements. For further information, please check this article.
You can join the Windmill experience, even if you don't have a team! You're welcome to join the fun and enjoy the festival as our guest. If you just wish to visit to watch a few games and drink a beer, you then feel free to go do that. Just go to the front desk to check in.
If you wish to also camp with us and have dinner with us, you'll have to sign up as a guest. The guest fee is €75 and should be paid before April 30th, more information under "fees".
For this price you will receive all the benefits of a player, minus the ultimate. Camping is included as well as dinner on Friday and Saturday. For more information about being a guest Windmill, feel free to email us!
As we've done now for several years, we'll be accepting 80 teams for 2019: 40 Mixed teams, and the other 40 split between Open and Women teams. We have decided to postpone the decision of exactly what the divide will be between women's open teams until after registration is closed. It will either be the former setup of 16 Women's and 24 Open teams, or ideally 20 Women's & 20 Open teams. Read our blog post on Team Selection for further information about this. If you have any questions regarding this or the selection process, please have a look here.

Windmill 2019 Headliner: The Brass Rave Unit!
When you celebrate your 15th anniversary there is only one, really only one band who understands how to do so: The Brass Rave Unit, Amsterdam's own mobile acoustic bash brigade will put Windmill upside down this year!
Ko Zandvliet (drums), Bo Floor (trumpet) and Dirk Zandvliet (baritone sax), deliver explosive high octane muscle and lung powered raves.
They gained notoriety by playing in the Amsterdam club scene, toppling over the DJ-stand and playing with all their power to remind people that live music and real instruments are still the best ingredients for an all-out party. This band is gaining momentum, SHAMBALA, Creamfields and Glastonbury, just a few of their past stages. And yes, you read it right.. this year they will also rock at WINDMILL!
Come relax, stay warm and make new friends at the Bonfire.
For you talented musicians, a piano and guitar will be at hand.
Herbie has accomplished what was considered un-achievable!
No place other than Iggy is big enough for our 15th year anniversary party.
