Security checks
We have a professional security team on site. They’re briefed to dress and behave in keeping with the festival, so they may not be immediately obvious. On arrival, you may have your bag searched or be asked a few questions. This helps us keep the event as safe as possible, and we’re grateful for your patience and cooperation.
Challenge 25 is in operation. The right of admission is reserved. Please note that confiscated items will not be returned.
