The event is free, there is no public over-night camping, the security is provided by a private firm - approved by the police, natch - thus all situations will be brought to the organizers before involving authority. We do not believe open smoking will be allowed, but no roving squads as per other venues. We do not know if a medication station for patients will be allowed this year.

They want to contribute to you being as informed, educated and prepared as you can be to participate in our culture and movement. Take this year's program guide home with you and study it.
