General Info

Punk Illegal Festival will take place on June 11-12, 2010 in Munkedal Sweden.
The festival area opens at 15.00 on Friday, with workshops and other happenings. The first band enters the stage at 18.00

Festival Area

The festival area is in Munkedals Folkets Park. Here you can buy all your fabulous Punk Illegal merchandise and get nice (vegan) food. We have two big stages “Stora scen” and “Dansbanan” both are under roof so you don’t need to be worried about rain (it’s not going to rain…but if). You’re not allowed to bring alcohol inside the festival area, sorry, but it is regulations and we don’t have anything to say in it. There will be alcohol sold inside the festival area instead. Besides the bands playing we will also have other activities and workshops (more info about that later).

Camping Area

You have to buy a ticket to get access to the camping area! The camping area is divided into blocks with fire streets for your safety. Camping is only allowed within the blocks, If you’re tent is in the streets it will be removed. The camping area has only a handful of parking spaces and is only to be used when you are dropping of your stuff. For parking over the whole weekend use the parking space next to the volunteer campsite/backstage area. There will be a information desk at the camping area, where you also can buy breakfast. Toilets and drinking water are also available.

Tickets

>> Get your ticket here <<

Or buy your ticket at PUSTERVIK (Järntorgsgatan 12, Göteborg) SWAHILI BOB’S (Bondegatan 16, Stockholm) HEPCAT STORE (Sankt Lars väg 21, Lund).

A two-day ticket for the festival costs 470 SEK (47 EURO) if you buy it in advance. At the festival the tickets will cost 700 SEK (70 EURO)* so be sure to buy your ticket now!

*This is because the planning of the festival depend on the money we get in advance from the ticket sales.

Why buy your ticket early?

To even be able to conduct the festival we need to get some money in advance. We have a lot of expenses that needs to be taken care of before the festival even begins, rent of the park,airline tickets and food, just to name a few. Some of the stuff we need is cheaper to buy early, such as airline tickets. By buying your ticket early you will help us, making the planning of the festival a lot easier and will generate more money for the refugees.

Regulations

No dogs or other animals are allowed
No glass bottles
No weapons
No sexism, racism or homophobia!

You have to be at least 13 years old to visit the festival due to the high decibel levels.

Security

To be able to arrange this festival we are obligated to cooperate with the police and authorized security guards, therefore there will be guards in, and around, the festival area.
Their decisions are nothing we got a say in, and we fully support them in their work.
We ask you kindly to respect this and we wish for a pleasant festival for everyone involved!

Please…
Do not shoplift from the stores in Munkedal, and treat all the people with respect so that we are welcome back again next year. Keep in mind that all destruction, graffiti etc at the festival area will be on our expense and will lead to less money to the refugees.
