Tips for enjoying the music that moves you

We’re a family

Look after people. Let others through, be kind, and dance without invading other people’s personal space.

No judgement

Don’t judge an artist by how they sound on YouTube: a live performance is in a league of its own.

Get up close to the stage

In the front row, you notice the details and get right behind the band. A gig is a two-way thing.

Dance… and listen

You’ll hear songs about: impossible liberations, connecting with nature, anxiety.

If you’re going to have a natter, move to the back!

If you want to chat to a mate, step back a bit. Don’t disturb those who are listening to the gig.

Bring your own cup

How many cups from other festivals do you have piling up at home? Bring a reusable one or buy one from the AEV bar.

Choose public transport

Come by bus. Take a taxi. Ride a bike or a scooter. Car-share. No alcohol whatsoever if you’re driving any vehicle!

Water, our treasure

Use the water in the toilets responsibly. Every drop is ‘produced’ through a polluting desalination process.

Be a bin-friendly friend

Put your rubbish in the bins. The street isn’t your ashtray: get yourself a portable ashtray to keep your cigarette ends in.

When hunger strikes…

Pop out for a bite to eat at one of the nearby places. Bring a sandwich or a salad from home. Enjoy your meal without making a mess.
