5 kr. cup fee is applied to each drink purchased on site. So you can bring your used cup to the bar and exchange it for a new one when you get a drink.

Yes, but you need to bring a companion (free of charge if documented) and be prepared for a rough ride. Most of the surface is grass or wood chips and it can be muddy. Unfortunately there will not be raised viewing spots for mobility impairment.

Is the festival environmentally sustainable?
All trash will be sorted, almost all beverages are organic, no straws are used, we use organic crew t-shirts. Wristbands are eco-friendly materials, and we try to limit the use of things that cannot be re-used (like banners, confetti).

How can I help the festival to be as sustainable as possible ?

• Sorting your trash at the trash stations.
• Not bringing confetti and glitter.
• Bring your own water bottle or buy one at our bars and take advantage of our free drinking water station.
• Don’t throw your cigarette buds on the ground, please use a trash can or a pocket ashtray.
• Don’t print your ticket or timetable, but download it to your phone.
• Take a bike or public transport to the festival.
