WHAT SHOULD I BRING TO ROCK FOR PEOPLE?
You’ll be spending several days at the festival, so it’s worth taking extra care when packing – make sure you’re not cold or hot and get a good night’s sleep. You should definitely not forget your insurance card, ID card, valid ticket, toiletries, medication, toilet paper, tent, mattress, sleeping bag and at least one pair of sturdy shoes.
We strongly recommend checking the weather forecast before the festival so you don’t get any surprises! During hot, sunny days you will definitely need headwear, sunscreen and sunglasses. For cooler days, pack warm clothes for day and night, sturdy boots, a raincoat, quality wind and rain gear or good camping gear.
You can add earplugs for use both during a loud concert and at night at the campsite. The bandana can be used as a belt, impromptu headgear against the sun or a torn strap, so it might come in handy. We recommend packing slippers for moving around camp, glamping and bathroom facilities.
Valuable items such as jewelry, computers or other technology and other valuables are recommended to be left at home.
WHAT WILL I EAT AND DRINK AT THE FESTIVAL?
Rock for People offers a wide range of top gastronomic experiences from all corners of the world. Of course there is also a vegan, vegetarian or gluten-free offer.

Just like every year, several cisterns with free drinking water will be available in the FESTIVAL AREA.
