Strictly Prohibited: Paper & Single-Use Plastics
No paper cups, plates, or single-use plastic cups are permitted on-site. Yes, that means your takeaway paper cups, too!
Any single-use items found at your booth will be removed immediately by event staff. First-time violations will receive one verbal warning. If non-compliance continues, penalty fees will apply and may lead to exclusion from future festivals.

How it works: Exhibitors are entirely responsible for transporting their dirty dishes to the designated drop-off point and picking them up once cleaned.
Please note that we cannot guarantee a specific time for the return of washed dishes.
Reusable Plastic Cups (Conditional Use)
While we prefer alternatives, reusable plastic cups are accepted under one strict condition: You must clearly inform attendees that these cups must be returned to your booth.
Please note: If we notice a high volume of your reusable cups ending up in general waste or recycling bins, we will require you to take immediate corrective action to prevent further littering.

When the festival wraps up on Sunday afternoon, it’s time to pack up - but let's finish strong!
No Early Pack-Down: Please do not start packing down your booth before the festival has officially closed. Attendees have paid for the full experience and traveled to see you, so let's not disappoint them with half-empty aisles!
The 2-Hour Window: Once the doors close, exhibitors have 2 hours to fully pack down their booth. After that, the production company will roll in to begin the venue tear-down.
Supplier Rentals: If you have rented items from one of our official festival suppliers, pack them up neatly and leave them right in the middle of your booth, free from walls and cables.
Leave It Clean: Do not leave any waste, full water containers, or coffee waste behind in your booth. We don't have an army of hidden cleaners, and leaving a mess behind will incur extra cleaning fees. Pack out what you pack in!
Load-Out (Departure)
Watch for Forklifts: When the festival wraps up and it's time to pack out, please be mindful not to park right outside the main entrance. We will have active forklifts moving through the area during tear-down, and keeping the pathways clear keeps everyone safe.

Friday (09:00–19:00): You may enter and exit freely.
Friday 19:00 – Sunday 16:30: No vehicle access will be allowed. If you park at the pier, your car must remain there until Sunday at 16:30.
This is for safety reasons, as the pedestrian walkway, bicycle lane and road overlap, meaning vehicles cannot move while attendees are walking in the area.Sunday after 16:30: You may retrieve your vehicle.

Sort Everything: All waste must be strictly sorted into plastic, cardboard, glass, general waste, and food/coffee waste.
Weigh-In Station: Bring all sorted waste to the recycling station to be weighed and logged by our staff before disposal.
Do It Right the First Time: Improperly sorted waste will be turned back for re-sorting.
Waste Allocations: Check your exhibitor terms for your specific waste limit allocations.
Waste Violations & Fees:
To protect our sustainability targets, failure to follow our waste guidelines, improper disposal, or leaving trash/materials at your booth after teardown will result in penalty fees. Please ensure all waste is weighed and processed at our recycling station before you depart.
