We have limited space for camping with bus/camper. Once this area is full, there is only the possibility to park vehicles in the designated parking areas. Unfortunately, camping with cars is not possible at all on the smaller camping area, because our camping area is located in the middle of the forest. Please leave your camping stoves at home. Due to the danger of forest fires, camping stoves may not be used.

For buses, campers, motorhomes and cars with mattresses you need a camper/car ticket.This must be purchased online in advance due to limited capacity.

There will be several drinking water tapping points.

The minimum age to enter the festival is 21 – no exemptions. So please bring your valid ID such as Student ID, health insurance card, or a copy of your ID. We reserve the right to control IDs and send people home in case they aren’t at legal age.

Professional photography and all filming are prohibited. Please be considerate of each person’s sanctuary.

You will find an ambulance at the festival ground. Please don’t hesitate to contact them if you or anyone around you needs help. Please take care of yourself and each other.

Open fires are strictly prohibited! Since our camping area is in the middle of the forest, it is unfortunately not possible to grill there. Please leave your camping stoves at home! With the dry summer, we have to be super careful with the forest fire risk.

There will be several stands. The offer is mainly vegetarian and vegan.

Glass and bottles are prohibited on all beaches of Lake Helene. Thus, for our part, glass and bottles are also not welcome on the entire site. We would like to reduce the amount of glass bottles and other glass containers to a minimum in order to keep the risk of injury and the amount of garbage small. Those who would like to dance barefoot should be able to do so without worry. Therefore, please fill your drinks into other bottles or cups before entering the area.

Any glass, weapons, animals, couches, generators, electric fridges, bulky waste of any sort, gas cartridge >450 gr., petrol cans or highly flammable substances, automobile batteries, explosive materials, torches, pyrotechnics, sound boxes, vuvuzelas, megaphones, PA-Systems are forbidden.

Enjoy the festival, take care of yourselves and your fellow human beings and rather ask once more if you have the feeling that a person is not well.

In case you find something bring it to our info point. The person who lost it will thank you! If you couldn’t find your lost item at the kiosk you can write an email after the festival to: [email protected].

Due to the closure of the shore after the landslide last year, unfortunately swimming is not allowed in the lake.  But you can go swimming at the Katjasee directly next to Helenesee. We will set up other splash and spa attractions on the mainland. It may get wet!
