Festivalgoers with Disabilities

All information for visitors with disabilities in one place.

TICKETS

We offer discounted admission for Disabled Identification Card holders and their accompanying persons. Tickets can be conveniently purchased online.

TRANSPORT

You can arrive by car (parking info below) or by public transport. From the main train station, which is right next to the bus station, a shuttle service will be available to the festival, namely low-floor city buses with a platform for wheelchair users. The timetable can be found on the RFP mobile app or on the website just before the festival.

PARKING

If you are driving and want to park within the grounds, buy parking in advance here. There is a special VIP parking area for disabled persons as close as possible to the main entrance. If you have extra space in your car, offer it for carpooling via the Yedem app. For more information, click here.

CAMPSITE

The campsite will have a designated area for several dozen tents as close as possible to the entrance to the grounds. The campsite will have wheelchair-accessible lockable toilets. Accommodation in the wheelchair-accessible campsite with your own tent can be purchased online.

The ticket is intended for persons with physical disabilities (= persons in wheelchairs or using mobility aids). You must present your disability ID on site. The campsite has barrier-free toilets.

If a participant does not meet the above conditions but believes that they should be granted access to the accessible campground due to a serious medical condition, they may contact the organizing team at radka@ameba.cz no later than fourteen days before the start of the festival. We review requests on a case-by-case basis, and priority is always given to those who meet the above conditions.

SANITARY FACILITIES

Lockable, wheelchair-accessible mobile toilets will be placed in the festival grounds and in a specially designated camping area. The locks will be by numerical code (the number combination will be given to you at the info point or in the accessible relaxation tent). Two wheelchair accessible showers with toilets locked with a Eurokey can be found in the area next to the wheelchair accessible tent. If you do not have a Eurokey, the tent staff will lend you one.

ELEVATED VIEWING PLATFORMS

Elevated platforms will be installed at the two main open-air stages for a better view of the stage. Access to the elevated platform is restricted to persons with disabilities who use assistive devices (wheelchairs, crutches, walkers) or adults of short stature. A Disabled Identification Card must be presented for admission. If the platform is full, access is not guaranteed, and places cannot be reserved in advance. To increase capacity for persons with disabilities, accompanying persons may be asked to leave the platform and remain in the area next to the platform, if the condition of the person with a disability allows it. Places on the platform cannot be purchased or reserved.

ACCESSIBILITY OF THE FESTIVAL AREA

Mobile ramps will be placed throughout the venue, providing access to important areas such as accreditation and information, as well as dining and relaxation areas, partner zones, festival merch, hangars, bars, etc.

WHEELCHAIR-ACCESSIBLE REST TENT

You can find the tent near the E2 Stage. Entrance is restricted to disabled persons and disabled persons with an escort. It is a place to rest, refresh, at the same time the tent serves as an info point, you can recharge your electric wheelchair (or phone) and we can help with basic repairs of the wheelchair (or call someone 🙂 ). In the tent there will be seating bags, couches, tables with benches. The staffed tent will be open until about midnight.

FOOD & DRINK

The food and drink offerings at the festival grounds also cater to people with intolerances and/or allergies. You will find plant-based, meat-free, gluten-free, and lactose-free options. It is not possible to bring your own food and drinks into the festival grounds, except for those documented for health reasons.

MEDICATION & ESSENTIALS

Prescription medication, such as insulin, can be stored with the medical service (including cold storage).

Folding chairs are not permitted inside the festival grounds. An exception is made for individuals with health impairments who present a Disabled Identification Card or a medical certificate confirming their need for a seating aid. Folding chairs are strictly prohibited in the mosh pits, at the front-row barriers (e.g., directly under the stage), and in emergency exits or safety zones. Entry and security checks for these items are only permitted through the designated corridor. Maximum permitted chair height: 50 cm.

GUIDE DOGS

Noise, loud music, and crowds of tens of thousands are unavoidable at a festival. This is not an ideal environment even for specially trained dogs. For your dog’s safety and well-being, please consider leaving your four-legged companions at home and bringing your two-legged friends instead, so you can all enjoy Rock for People to the fullest. If you decide to bring a service or guide dog, please bring a valid training certificate and ensure the dog is properly marked. No other pets are allowed entrance.

WHERE TO GET MORE INFORMATION AT THE FESTIVAL

Most of the essential information, including a map and program, can be found in the mobile app or on the web. You can download the app in the App Store and Google Play.

There is an info point at the festival in the so-called 24-hour zone (outside the festival grounds). The central repository of information will be the wheelchair-accessible relaxation tent. Any questions can also be sent via social media.
