Admission rules | Bags and backpacks

To secure a swift admission process we highly recommend all Amphi visitors to bring no bags or backpacks with them to the festivalground. If possible, please leave those items at home, your hotel room or your car at the parking space. (This also goes for “Call the Ship to Port”.)

However, we are not going to introduce a total ban of bags and backpacks at the festivalground!

In case you can´t forgo your bag or backpack (like for photo equipment), expect more indepth checks and perhaps longer waits at the entrance.

In order to still keep admission as quick as possible, we invented the so-called “Luggage Lane” at the Tanzbrunnen’s main entrance for visitors with bags. Please follow the local signage or the instructions of the security, who, on occasion, may ask you to take the “Luggage Lane” instead of the normal entrance.

As a simple rule for Amphi Festival goes:

if possible, leave bags of all kind at home
no bag / beltbag / small handbag = normal entrance
backpack / photo bag / large handbag / shopping bag etc. = “Luggage Lane”

Medical assistance

In the case of an emergency there are paramedics at hand. Please inform yourselves of their whereabouts by reading the area map or the festival programme!
