New system of the control of wristbands

This year we are switching to a now system of the control of wristbands at the entry and exit from the festival area.

After the display of the valid ticket to the festival, the ticket will be exchanged for an identification wristband, which will have a unique QR code. The visitor will upon every entry and exit have their wristband checked at the gate. If the system finds two times after each other only entry or only exit, the organizers have the right not to let the visitor in. The new system will ensure a better control of the area. We ask you not to purchase the wristbands from anyone and thus prevent any problems.

The festival premises are open in the following times: on Friday 25/8 from 12:00 PM to 05:00 AM, on Saturday 26/8 from 10:30 AM to 06:00 AM.

During the festival, the visitors can go in and out of the premises with a valid wristband and QR code. The festival wristband is not transferable and we suggest you not to remove the wristbnad from your hand, as you might not be able to get back to the festival premises again. At the entrance, as well as inside the premises, visitors will receive leaflets with a map and programme of the events. You can visit the Uprising Reggae festival stall, where you can get all necessary information or you can buy Uprising merch and souvenirs here.
