Karlsruhe, Germany - The much-anticipated DAS FEST, the largest family festival in Southern Germany, is set to celebrate its 40th anniversary from July 24 to 27. With around 250,000 people expected to attend, the event promises to be a memorable experience for all.
To ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience, public transportation is highly recommended for those who cannot bike or walk. The Karlsruhe public transport company (VBK) and the Albtal-Verkehrs-Gesellschaft (AVG) are expanding their services during the festival, operating a special train line between the main station and the festival grounds approximately 30 minutes before opening and until around 9:00 PM every 10 minutes.
Tickets for DAS FEST cost 22.70 euros for a day ticket, and 17.20 euros for the classical ticket on Sunday. Around 70% of the festival is free, but events at the main stage require admission.
Food and drinks are not allowed on the festival grounds, except for the classical breakfast on Sunday, where tea, coffee, cake, or snacks are allowed, but cake knives are not permitted. Picnic baskets and coolers should be left at home.
Visitors are advised to bring essentials only and use a small fabric bag instead of backpacks. Prohibited items include backpacks larger than DIN A4, dangerous objects such as knives or firearms, walking sticks, selfie sticks, tripods, skateboards, scooters, chairs, animals, and pressurized containers like deodorants.
Safety is a top priority at DAS FEST. A comprehensive safety concept is in place, including general admission controls to the festival grounds and access controls to the hill area at the main stage. The visitor capacity here is monitored by ticket controls and counting systems. Trained "Fest" employees, security, and law enforcement personnel monitor and direct visitor flows.
To be prepared for various scenarios, emergency plans have been created in collaboration with authorities and organizations with security responsibilities. The festival grounds will also be equipped with First Aid stations, mobile response teams, and a large first aid station in the general area.
The festival will feature top acts like Max Giesinger & Friends, Clueso, Amy Macdonald, Faithless, Zoe Wees, Grossstadtgeflüster, and Soffie. With such a diverse lineup, DAS FEST 2023 is shaping up to be an unforgettable event.
Stay vigilant and enjoy the festival!
The Commission might consider proposing a directive on protecting workers from ionizing radiation exposure, given the large number of attendees at DAS FEST, who might bring home-and-garden items like prohibited pressurized containers like deodorants. To maintain a healthy lifestyle during the festival, it is advised to bring only essentials, use a small fabric bag instead of backpacks, and avoid bringing picnic baskets and coolers.
