RASNOV (NEAR BRASOV) ROMANIA

• The festival will start on Friday, the 30th of April, at 15:00 and will end 5 may. The day after the Fullmoon. The location is a wonderful site, a hill near Rasnov, Brasov (Romania).
• From this hill you can see the whole Carpathian Curve as well as a few towns glowing lovely at night. A huge forest with deer, rabbits and squirrels, but no bears or the like, starts right from the spot where the party will be held. We will light up a huge campfire which will keep you warm in case the night is rather fresh.
• This festival is dedicated to peace, love, unity and respect and will last for over 100 hours!
• Our national and international guests will provide the finest psychedelic trance and chill out for 5 days while we can enjoy the beautyfull nature and create happiness.
• There will be two stages: a psytrance stage and a chill-out area. The list of live acts & DJ's can be found further down this page!
• This is a nonprofit festival! Most of the income will be used to lower travelcosts of the artists and some wil be used for future festivals through the summer!

ESSENTIALS

Transylvania is a world of its own. If you are planning to come to the festival, imagine you are going on a trip to a magical adventurous country. To really feel comfortable at the festival, you need to take some time and get prepared. Please do not just turn up. As you will stay for 5 days and nights out in nature, it will be smart to have the following gear at hand:

RESPECT NATURE!

• As we will be a few hundred people camping and partying out in nature, we all have to follow a few basic rules, to keep this beautiful space in its shape.
• A green spot is becoming more and more of a treasure these days, so we have to respect nature and protect her.
• Don't throw garbage around, there will be garbage cans, as well as sand-filled pots for cigarettes. Ecological toilets will be available.
• Please always remember to treat this unique piece of earth with respect!

RESPECT EACH OTHER!

• An open-air festival in such lovely surroundings is not the place to fight. Respect each other and be tolerant to ensure maximum fun for everyone.

RESPECT YOURSELF!

• some ppl ask me if its dangerous in romania.. what i can say is.. as long as you dont do anything wrong and keep smiling while watching your stuff you shouldnt have any problems..
• travelling in a group of 2 or more ppl would for sure increase the security! cause dodgy ppl you find all over the globe!
• Police Harrassment like in greece i dont think there will be! and should there be any police problem.. just be friendly and play the poor tourist with little money.. offer maybe 5 € or a CD and he will be happy!!
