We have been told to expect the constabulary and canine associates to make one of their customary festival appearances. You may be sniffed at inside and outside the show and even at car parks or public transport hubs. Possession and/or consumption of illegal substances will not be tolerated.
Any patron found to be intoxicated on arrival or within the venue will be handed over to law enforcement.
You can bring a small bag or backpack, but remember that it will take longer to get into the show & if you want to cloak it in, it will add more queues to your day.
Check the back of your ticket for restricted items conditions such as Video cameras, alcohol & umbrellas.
Make sure you pace yourself, drink plenty of water, eat some food that will give you some energy & be sure to get rest, when you can, to maximize your enjoyment on the day.

SECURITY
Whether it’s entering, leaving or in the festival you will be required to abide by any reasonable request or command from the Soundwave security. Remember that they are primarily there to keep the entire festival safe. If you need help or see someone needing help please notify them straight away. Crowd surfing, moshing & circle dancing are dangerous activities & will not be tolerated. Offenders will either be banned from the area or possibly removed from the site. Soundwave accepts no violence and any forms will result in immediate removal from the site.
EMERGENCY EVACUATION
Under extreme & unlikely circumstances a building, area or the entire site may be required to be evacuated or cleared. It will be imperative for you to follow all instructions & directions from emergency services, police, fire brigade & / or our security that would be requested of you in such a situation. Remember these people are only there to help so pay attention.
FIRST AID
There will be First Aid located at Stages 1, 2, 4 and between Stages 3 and 6 on the corner of Barwon Avenue and New England Avenue, to treat people who are genuinely ill or have injured themselves on the day. Try to minimize your demands on them if it does not relate to real issues as they have a very long and demanding day. More than 50% of all First Aid Calls are related to cut feet and sunburn – please wear shoes and bring sunblock.
CAN I BRING MY CAMERA?
No professional photography equipment is permitted however point and click cameras and mobile phones are fine. No recording devices of any kind will be permitted.
WATER STATIONS
There will be water stations located around the site. Maps will be handed out at the front gate which will point these stations out.
ACCESSIBLE INFORMATION
The Soundwave Festival will be an accessible friendly event as much as we can possibly make it. There will be an accessible viewing platform at each stage and in the main arena there are a number of accessible viewing points in the grandstands. Disabled toilets are available around the site.
We suggest that you are accompanied by a friend as with all major events navigating through the crowds can be difficult and we recommend that you stay clear of the mosh pits. As long as you plan you day and leave a bit of extra time to move between stages there is absolutely no reason why you should not have a great day and be able to see the bands you love.
PUBLIC TRANSPORT INFORMATION
PLAN YOUR TRANSPORT! The best way to get to Soundwave is by public transport. Make sure you’ve taken a look at the timetables for your local public transport system and you’ve worked out a plan to get to the site – and, perhaps more importantly, how to get home when you’re a little bit worse for wear.
