Camping

You can only enter the camping and festival area with a festival wristband. These bands are available in exchange for the valid entrance ticket.
Camping is only possible with the Southside Festival Pass. 

Please note the following:

• Keep the marked escape routes in the camping area clear.
• Open fires are strictly forbidden on the entire grounds!
• There is a noise curfew between 2.00 a.m. and 8.00 a.m.
• It is forbidden to bring and/or set off Bengal or any other fireworks! Infringements will be punished at least by a yellow ribbon.

How much space can I use?
5 sqm per person! Here is a small illustrative example: 10 sqm correspond to the need for a comfortable two-person tent plus canopy and two camping chairs.

Groups
If you want to camp with a group, you should arrive together – please understand that our security staff are not responsible for bringing individual groups together.

Toilets & showers
The sanitary facilities on the campsites have showers and flushing toilets. In addition, numerous mobile toilets are also available. The use of all sanitary facilities on the entire festival grounds is free of charge.

Biotopes & nature reserves
Many of the areas around here are major biotopes and nature reserves. We would like to preserve these areas and the animals and plants who live there and protect them as best as possible during the festival. Anyone caught entering, littering or vandalising the restricted areas, will risk at least a yellow card, if not being evicted.

Deposit collection ban
The commercial collection of recyclables (especially deposit bottles, metals) on the festival grounds for the purpose of marketing recyclables is only permitted with the organiser’s prior written consent. Anyone violating the ban on commercial collection may be punished by confiscation of the collected recyclables. In addition, they may be evicted from the festival site immediately. Usual quantities for festival guests in terms of type and volume will be accepted.

Liability
Each guest shall be liable for any damage they cause.

Decorations
We put a lot of heart and soul, time and effort into decorating our festival grounds to make the festival a great experience for you. Therefore, we would ask all guests to please pay our work the respect it deserves. Anyone who defies this rule and removes, misappropriates, defaces or in any other way destroys our decorations will at least face a yellow card.

The tent camping areas are divided into the regular campsite and the Greener Living area for tent accommodation as well as the resort (with your own tent or in pre-erected tent accommodation).
 

Greener Living

People who love rock’n‘roll at the concerts but prefer some calm and cleanliness when camping, can stay at our Greener Living area during Southside. The Greener Living area is is a separate area that gives our green-minded guests an opportunity to sleep in a clean and calm environment. 
 

Resort

Want to camp in your own tent but with more space and other amenities to make your festival experience more pleasant? Then pitch up at the resort.
 

Resort with tent accommodation

Don't feel like lugging a tent around? Then check out the resort. Here you can move into a super cosy tent.

The trailer parks are divided into the regular area  and the Greener Living area. All vehicles need a trailer park ticket to gain access to the separate trailer parks.
 

Camper vans
A camper van is a motor vehicle that provides fixed sleeping berths and living space according to the number of passengers in the vehicle, including an awning or pagoda.

Caravan (with passenger car as towing vehicle).
A trailer registered on public roads, which provides fixed sleeping berths according to the number of passengers in the towing vehicle, including an awning or pagoda, whereby the passenger car must always be harnessed in front of the trailer in order to be able to maneuver at any time.

Station wagons
Station wagons may be occupied by a maximum of two persons and must have built-in sleeping berths (also temporary if necessary) corresponding to the number of passengers.

Passenger car with trailer
A passenger car with trailer may be occupied by a maximum of 5 persons and must have sleeping capacity on the trailer or in the unfolded state corresponding to the number of passengers. 

Other cars

(e.g. nine-seaters, small cars like WW Polo or similar, station wagons with more travelers than available sleeping places) are not allowed in the trailer park!
Since we cannot check if your vehicle meets these requirements before the festival, the on-site security service is responsible for this. If your vehicle does not meet the requirements, you may be denied access to the Trailer Park. You are responsible for ensuring that your vehicle is allowed into the trailer park.

Awnings/pagodas
One awning or one pagoda may be attached to the caravan. Small or large tents with additional sleeping space are not permitted. Security will check compliance with this rule strictly, in order to guarantee sufficient space for all trailer park residents. The total length of the vehicle must be no longer than 11 metres and the permissible total weight no more than 3.5 tonnes. In the case of a car/trailer combination (e. g. car with caravan), the tractor must remain permanently hitched before the trailer in order to be able to manoeuvre at all times.

On Site
Since it is not possible to check the camper van when the ticket is being purchased, we reserve the right to refuse access to vehicles to the intended space if they do not comply with the above rules. The cost of the purchase camper sticker will not be refunded in such a case.

Trailer Park in the Greener Living Area
People who love rock’n‘roll at the concerts but prefer some calm and cleanliness when camping, can stay at our Greener Living area during Southside. The Greener Living  area is is a separate area that gives our green-minded guests an opportunity to sleep in a clean and calm environment. All vehicles need a corresponding trailer park ticket to gain access to the Greener Living area. 

Trailer Park Power Claims

This is a pitch of approx. 32 m² reserved especially for you, where you will also have access to electricity (Schuko connection with up to 2,000 watts).
