The minimum age for visiting Defqon.1 is 18 years. There will be strict age and identity checks at the entrance, so be sure you bring your ID-card, EU drivers license or passport. A copy of your ID is not valid. You also cannot enter the festival or campsite if you are with someone who is 18+. 

All forms of gas cylinders, fuel (gasoline, diesel, etc.), generator batteries, electric kettles, electric BBQ's or dry ice/fuel are not allowed on the Defqon.1 Campsites. Be aware that this has changed compared to previous years. This decision has been made on behalf of local government services. Small disposable BBQs (30x40cm) are still allowed (BBQ on coal or on small batteries like AA or AAA). 

You can bring your own cigarettes or vapes. Smoking is only allowed in the open-air areas, not in tents. There’s no possibility to buy cigarettes or vapes on the camping grounds or festival grounds.  

If you travel with your own means of transportation, you can bring as many bags as you like. We do not have a maximum size for the bags on the Camping Grounds. If you’re traveling by bus or other forms of group transportation, please check the maximum baggage allowance. If you're attending for only one day, you can only bring 1 backpack to the festival grounds. 

Only small speakers with a maximum output of 25 watts are allowed on the campgrounds. Please be considerate of your fellow campers, respect each other and keep the volume down. From 02:00 to 09:00, we kindly ask everyone to keep the campsite quiet so all warriors can rest properly. There will be increased surveillance compared to previous editions. If you exceed the guidelines, your speaker may be confiscated. 

You may bring a maximum of 2 power banks per person to Defqon.1. Each power bank may have a maximum capacity of 27,000 mAh and must have USB outputs only. Power stations or other devices with a 220V socket are not permitted.

You can also buy powerbanks at the  festival grounds to keep your phone charged throughout the day or weekend. In addition, VARTA is bringing Power for the Tribe through designated charging points located in Wasted Lands, Magenta, and Yellow.  
At the camping grounds, you can rent or buy power banks to keep your phone charged.  
Please note, you can’t bring solar panels and large battery packs to Defqon.1. 

It's allowed to take spray deodorant and perfume bottles with you to the campsite. Because of safety reasons, you cannot take this with you to the festival grounds. Rollers or sticks are allowed. 

The drugs policy at Defqon.1 is zero-tolerance. This means that all types of drugs are prohibited. This also includes weed and hash. If drugs are found, you will be handed over to the police. 

You are allowed to bring medication with you, but only the maximum daily amount. The packaging has to be closed. Security might ask you for a doctor’s recipe. Therefore, it is obligatory to have your doctor’s recipe with you. 
It is possible to leave your medication cooled at first aid. Tell the security guards about your medication and bring it directly to first aid.  

During Defqon.1 earplugs will be available at all of the Merchandise stands. With music above 87 dB it is highly recommended to use earplugs with a special music filter. With these earplugs you can still hear the music perfectly, conversations remain intelligible and most important of all, you prevent damage to your ears and the annoying ring after the event. The organisation recommends using earplugs or occasionally visiting some of the quiet areas to give your ears some rest. The organisation is not liable for any negative consequences that may occur. 

You’re allowed to bring a digital photo or video camera to the Defqon.1 Festival. All types of cameras are allowed. It doesn't matter how big or professional they are. 
Do you want to upload a video on YouTube? Keep in mind that the music on your video may be claimed by an organisation. The organisation has the right to block your video. 
It is not allowed to bring a drone with you to Defqon.1. It is not allowed to fly over the public or near the public. It’s allowed to bring a selfie stick but only with a maximum size of 1 meter. During the show, we will have lots of 4K cameras running to record the shows. We advise you not to film but to enjoy the show! We will make an amazing edit for you to never forget!

During Defqon.1 we celebrate safely. If you have any questions about the use of alcohol or other drugs, you're welcome for a chat at the Celebrate Safe stand supported by Unity. Unity is an open-minded harm reduction project active in the Dutch party scene. Their volunteers are to be found near The Monumenton the festival grounds. On Thursday from 16:30 till 22:00, Friday and Saturday from 11:00 till 22:00 and Sunday from 11:00 till 22:00. When you or a friend is not feeling well, please go to the First Aid.  If you’d like to view the map, head over to the Defqon.1 app. 

At Defqon.1, we celebrate like Warriors. This doesn't mean we have to go all out; it means picking our battles. As we are about to face 4 days of power, we recommend reading this carefully to understand what it means for you as a member of our Tribe. 
When there is so much happening, a few basic reminders can make a huge difference: 
Come to Defqon.1 prepared and well-rested. 
Party responsibly; don’t overdo things. 
Make sure to get your day-to-day nutrients. 
Hydrate like a champ. 
Don’t be afraid to kick back and relax. Also, try to get enough sleep every day. 
Be vigilant about what happens around you. We’re all part of the same tribe, so reach out to your fellow Warriors if you feel they’re in need. Be the big brother or sister that anyone could use. Even if that means turning down the volume of your boombox so your neighbors can sleep. Remember, we’re in this together. 

Cut off the route to the exit! From the RED you can go to the left past the PURPLE stage. This shortcut is also displayed on the terrain. For the Friday, Saturday and Sunday day visitors we recommend the shortcut to take the fastest way to the exit. The camping visitors can walk straight from the RED towards the afterparty. 

If you are walking from the BLUE stage to the RED stage you can go past the UV and go to the left. You will skip the crowd on a bypass route and enter the RED stage on the left side. We also recommend using this route during the egress of POWER HOUR and all three Endshows. It's a 2 minute longer walk, but less crowded. 

The Dutch weather can be unpredictable, so make sure you’re prepared for all types of weather: 
 
Bring the right clothing with you, for day-, and nighttime. 
Bring a poncho or rain jacket in case of rain. 
Bring sunscreen. You can bring sunscreen in a new, sealed package. Sunscreen is also available at the festival stores. 
Stay hydrated! Drink enough water during the day. 
Keep eating, we recommend salty food when it is hot. 
Take your time: relax at one of our chill areas. 
Avoid spending too much time in the sun. 
Watch out with alcohol or drugs, especially with high temperatures. 
Last but not least, don’t forget your craziest Sunday Funday outfit! 

There are four First Aid stations available. The first one is located near campsite 1, the second one is located near the bus entrance, the third is on campsite 5 and the fourth next to the RED stage. The First Aid at campsites 1, 5 and near the bus entrance are 24/7 available for camping visitors. You can ask security for help as well. The First Aid next to the RED stage and next to the bus entrance are open for day and weekend visitors on Friday, Saturday and Sunday during the festival opening hours.  
Please note, the First Aid team is your friend, no judgement, no consequences. 

If you have found something that doesn’t belong to you, please bring it to the nearest info stand. There are three info stands. You can find the three different info stands on The Wasted Lands, campsite 5 and at the festival grounds. After the festival, all found items are settled by iLost. When you arrive home and you realize that you lost something, go to iLost.nl and search for your lost item. If you find your lost item on the website, you can contact iLost and they will be of further assistance. You can find the items on the website the weekend after the festival.
