Practical

Identification
After showing their tickets, all festival visitors will get an identification bracelet which allows them to enter the area and build a tent in the tenting campground. The bracelet must not be torn or impaired in any way. The visitors must display it upon entry to the festival area. In the case that someone is not able to show their identification bracelet they will not be allowed to enter, and if necessary, they will be escorted away by security.

Children
Children under 140 cm have free entry

Dogs
Dogs, except for fighting breeds, will only be allowed in the festival area on a leash with a muzzle and properly tagged with identification. Free movement of dogs is strictly forbidden. The organizer is authorized to deny entry to any and all evidently aggressive dogs of any breed.
