    Health & Safety

    At the festival, our heroes at the first aid are there to help you at any time of the day. Are you not feeling well? Then head over there. Don’t worry, they won’t call your mother if you have been misbehaving, and they certainly won’t tell the police. Their biggest concern is that you are doing well, so don’t hesitate to ask for help.

    All festivals in the Netherlands operate under a governmental ‘zero-tolerance policy’. This means that no soft- drugs or hard drugs are allowed. Nitrous oxide (laughing gas) is also not allowed on the festival terrain.

    Bringing your medication is only permitted in combination with an official doctor’s note.

    Your safety is extremely important to us. Therefore, everything and everyone is searched at the entrance (including luggage). Do you have something with you that is on our ‘blacklist’? Then we’ll throw it away. Pay attention! In some cases, access to the site of the festival may be denied.

    You’re not allowed to bring weapons, sharp or hard objects, glass and fluids. Bringing your own food and drinks is only allowed on the Camping grounds (and not on the festival site).

    Due to safety reasons, you’re not allowed to bring nitrous oxide.

    Party consciously and safe dear Friends! You’ll find the exact location on the floorplans, which will be handed out at the festival.
