Please refrain from bringing your dog to the festival. The event is growing and more people do like to bring their pets to the event. This creates some problems and undermines the safety feeling of general participants, especially those with children. If you decide to bring your dog to the festival, please keep it on a leash at all times.
Bio-toilets will be ready for use across the site. Please use them to prevent toilet paper from spreading in the forest and save those wandering around from stepping on your excrements. If you still decide to do your natural needs in the forest – no problem, but please follow a good example of our smaller brothers – bury it after yourself. Let’s keep the area clean and tidy not only in visible places but truly everywhere.
There will be a few showers at the site. Please use only environment-friendly soaps and shampoos.
Bank cards only will be accepted at ticket gates, bars, showers, and info point. Cash will still be accepted as a tip by the bartenders, also restaurants and shops. No ATM will be operating at the site. Take care of cash prior to arrival.
The festival pass price includes 50 Eur Yaga 2022 membership fee. The annual membership fee is part of Yaga’s funding. Yaga is more than just an entertainment event – it is a cultural phenomenon. A large part of the event’s budget is used to implement various artistic expressions and cultural activities at the festival. The principle of membership and ticket funding helps to optimize administrative costs, reduce ticket costs and implement more different projects without taking into account their commercial benefits.
