Rockers with disabilities
General information
Sign-up starts on April 1st, 2021.
We want to enable everyone who loves music to visit the festival. Therefore, we put great effort into making the event as relaxed as possible, also for handicapped people. Each year we think about how we can make our festival as accessible as possible to the disabled. We are grateful for any comments to barrierefrei@hurricane.de.
CAMPING
WHEELCHAIR PLATFORM
There is a wheelchair platform in front of the Green Stage und the Blue Stage, beside the FOH Tower. Wheelchair users can access this at all times with max. one companion, and enjoy the bands. Depending on the degree of capacity utilisation, guests with a handicapped ID but no wheelchair may access the wheelchair platform.
MOBILE INFORMATIONS SERVICE
We offer a mobile information service for disabled people. When you collect your pass we will give you a telephone number, which you are welcome to use if you require information or help during the festival and the info-point is too far away. Our special volunteers team for handicapped people will take care of your concerns as quickly as possible, subject to capacity.
POWER FOR ELECTRIC WHEELCHAIRS
For those of you with an electric wheelchair, we offer the possibility to charge it on the VIP campsite. For this purpose we shall provide a power source in a central location within the area reserved for you. Please bring along an outdoor-compatible extension cable (50m).
Please note that we can only provide electricity (240 volts) to the distributor, which may be located up to 50 metres away from the location of your tent. Use is permitted solely for charging medically necessary devices (such as wheelchairs). For safety reasons, we must limit the maximum output of each power outlet to 1000 watts. The electricity is generated locally, and is therefore susceptible to faults and voltage fluctuations. We do not accept any liability for the use of the power source or for any defects that may be caused to devices by voltage fluctuations or outages. We reserve the right to interrupt electricity provision (temporarily) for safety reasons in the event of extreme weather conditions.
MEDICATION AT THE FESTIVAL
If you bring medication to the festival: medical proof of its necessity ensures that you may bring it onto the grounds. For medication that requires refrigeration, there is the possibility to hand it to members of the ambulance service in the first-aid tents.
