Camping grounds
Camping is included in the 3-day festival pass. The camping grounds are located right next to the festival area. You can bring your own drinks & food to the camping grounds. Cans, plastic bottles, canisters and tetra paks are allowed. Of course there are no quantitative restrictions for food and drinks!

Because of the high injury risk, ALL GLASS BOTTLES AND GLASS CONTAINERS ARE STRICTLY PROHIBITED. All glass items found during security check will be withdrawn without substitution. Also prohibited: open fire, torches, fireworks and other pyrotechnical items, drugs and weapons of any kind! Generators are also prohibited on the camping grounds.

My tent’s already set up
Tired of always being left with only the bad spots for your tent at festivals? No room in the car, on your bike or on the train to bring shade canopies or camping chairs? You don’t even have a tent or it’s way too small but you still wanna camp on the festival grounds?
We got the perfect solution for you: Simply rent all camping gear from us and arrive at METALFEST to find your tent all set up and ready for you to move in!
You will arrive rested and with no pressure at all to find high-quality tents and tarps plus tables and chairs, all set up and ready for you at one of the best available camping spots. All you have to do is move in. After the festival you can simply leave it all behind – no need to stress yourself with dismantling or drying your tents and more time to already look forward to the next event.
Just say: My tent’s already set up! And there you go: move in, dress up, rock out. Couldn’t be better!

Garbage / Nature protection
We ask you to put your garbage only in the containers intended for this use on the camping ground and the festival area. Keep the area clean at all times because we intend to return here. Our security crew has been ordered to cut off incorrigible persons` wristbands and ban them from the festival. There are absolutely NO concessions in this case!

Garbage deposit
We are well aware that garbage at open air festivals is a tricky subject. In order to offer you a clean festival once more we ask you to support us in this matter. We will put up containers and garbage bags all over the area, the camping grounds and the connection paths – you can dispose of your garbage there. We`ll also employ the garbage deposit system that you surely encountered at other festivals. At the camping grounds cash desk/ info point you`ll not only receive your wristbands, but also Metalfest garbage bags plus a garbage deposit token. We will ask for 5 € garbage deposit per person. Of course you will get your 5 € garbage deposit back in return for a full garbage bag plus your garbage deposit token!

Protection of minors
Kids and teenagers (up to 16 years of age) have no permission to participate in concerts and club nights without being accompanied by a parent or legal guardian according to JuSchG § 5. However, there is an exception to this rule: if you are able to present a written permission by a parent or a legal guardian plus an ID copy of that person. Carry these documents with you at all times and present them to the security staff if needed. Visitors under the age of 16 can then stay on the festival area until midnight, visitors over the age of 16 until your parent or legal guardian says so. The serving of alcohol to minors is subject to the JuSchG. § 9. Minors under the age of 14 (who are accompanied by a parent or legal guardian) get free admission.

ABSOLUTELY PROHIBITED!
Weapons, fireworks, glass items are absolutely prohibited. This will be checked upon your arrival. In case of significant violations you will be banned from the festival. So leave these items at home! It is also not permitted to trade with food / non-food items on the whole area.

Now let`s deal with the subject of politics and the presentation of its abominations. Of course all NS / nazi symbols are strictly banned! Our security has been trained and won`t be fooled. This ban includes the whole festival area and the camping grounds. Draw attention to yourself with something like that and you can go home. The same rule applies to people who play music by bands with a nazi / rightwing background.

If you don`t get that – stay home! A word on civil courage: everybody is asked to participate in this! So talk to us or the security staff if necessary! Dogs and other pets are not allowed on the area. No exceptions! Glass items: all glass items found during security check will be withdrawn without substitution!
