Festivalen hålls från och med år 2024 på Kanaanbadet, en stor och fin strand med gångavstånd från Blackeberg och Vällingby, norr om Stockholm.

Festivalen har sedan 2017 hållits på Lappis Beach varje år. Sommaren 2023 upplevde vi dock att markförhållandena inte var optimal då det veckorna innan hade regnat mycket och orsakade tyvärr stora lerpölar där publiken skulle stå. I och med att festivalen dessutom har vuxit har Lappis beach även börjat bli för liten yta för att kunna erbjuda bra plats för både mat- och marknadsförsäljarna.

Nej, festivalen har helt fri entré för alla!

Efterfesten hålls på Hilma Bar i centrala Stockholm, åldersgräns 20 år. Biljetter till efterfesten kan köpas via denna hemsida.

För i år finns det 3 typer av biljetter. Matbiljetter, backstagebijletter och biljetter till efterfesten på Club Hilma. Festivalen kräver ingen entrébiljett och är helt gratis för alla. Alla biljetter som säljs via hemsidan genererar en QR-kod som endast kan scannas vid ett tillfälle.

Kanaanbadet ligger drygt 15-20 minuters promenad från Blackeberg, Råcksta eller Vällingby t-banestation. Det kommer finnas en festivalbuss som går mellan Blackebergs t-banestation och stranden ungefär varje halvtimme.  Det går även bra att promenera och njuta av den fina naturen längs vägen.

Inget öppet köp på biljetterna, såvida arrangören meddelar att festivalen är inställd.  

Efterfestens åldersgräns är 20 år. Backstage har också en åldersgräns från 18 år.
