Accommodation

TENT CAMPS
Tent camps are included in the festival area. They will be open from Thursday 10 July 2025 from 12:00 noon until Sunday 13 July 2025, 4:00 PM.

Camping at the festival is free; it is included in the price of the festival ticket.

• One tent camp is located in the direction as if coming from Trenčín (for pedestrians)
• The other tent camp is at the festival car park

Camping in the tent camps is reserved for festival visitors only. Camps are divided into sectors that are separated by footpaths that also serve as corridors. We kindly ask that you keep safety gaps when raising your tent, please do not block naturally occurring footpaths between tents.
Camping in camp corridors, car park, and outside the designated areas is prohibited—any tents set up outside designated areas will be taken down and folded including their equipment and stored in the camp managerʼs office in the nearest tent camp. The owners can pick them up there: identification will be requested.

In the tent camps, as well as in the entire festival area, the following is prohibited:

• Putting on fire
• Using cookers with open flames
• Explosives of any kind, including fireworks
• Entry by car

If you smoke, do so with caution.

The camps are equipped with water barrels and buckets for emergency in case of fire. In case of fire, immediately contact the security service, organisational service, or firemen—several fire trucks are docked in the festival area.

If you have rubbish to discard, try to use the nearest container or leave your waste wrapped in plastic bags. Each tent will receive 2 plastic bags for waste disposal. Yellow bags are intended for separate waste collection (plastic, paper, and metal), black bags are for other waste. On departure, please tie the bags and take them to the nearest container or large waste container. You can also just leave them behind you (see the Waste section). If you did not receive waste bags or you have already filled them up, please contact a camp manager or volunteers in the camping areas. For all additional restrictions that apply also on the entry to the camps, please see the RESTRICTIONS section.

The organisers are not responsible for the safety of items in the tent camps, and, therefore, we recommend that you do not leave valuables, money, etc. in your tent. If you do have valuables with you, use lockers (you can purchase a Lock Inn safe, which includes two electrical outlets, here).

The camp sites are equipped with sanitary facilities and potable water tanks. Please follow the instructions of the organisers.

CARAVAN PARKING SECTOR
The caravan parking sector is located in the camp adjacent to the festival car park, just behind the festival gates (see the Maps section). Caravan Parking has now been divided into sectors 1 – 4 based on distance from the festival site. We continue to offer festival extras in the price of Caravan Parking in the form of a caravan connection to electricity, access to drinking water, or its own reception. Entry by caravan will be possible from Thursday 12:00 noon.

Conditions:

• The price of Caravan parking is from €149, you can purchase it in advance here
• When you arrive at the car park, you need to show your purchased ticket and you will receive a special parking sticker (place it on the windshield of the caravan)
• The camping service will guide you to the reserved sector
• You can enter and leave the Caravan parking sector at any time thanks to the sticker—for this reason, camping is strictly prohibited (any set up tents will be taken down, folded and stored at the nearest Camp manager’s office)
• The caravan parking sector has its own reception
• An electricity outlet is available

RV owners have two options:

• Caravan parking—if you want to owners connect to electricity, you need to purchase caravan parking and arrive directly at the caravan sector. Your car will be able to come and go anytime (provided your parking sticker is placed on the car’s windscreen)
• A tent camp—if you opt for this option, you will have to push the trailer from the general parking lot to the tent camp; no payment for the trailer is required. The car that brings the trailer must be parked in the car park; parking fees apply according to the selected sector

If electricity connection in the caravan sector is requested, parking for caravans (remodelled vans) must be purchased. If parking in the general car park is sufficient, only a standard parking sticker according to the selected sector is required, please see section Parking.

INOVEC HUT
One of the most popular options at the festival are the wooden huts. Our colleague Vlado Jurčák prepared the first huts exclusively in the production of our festival. We named them Inovec after the highest mountain visible from Trenčín. Inovec huts for two people are very comfortable. The hut will be equipped with a mattress (160x200 cm), pillows, blankets, sheets and a solar LED light. The huts are lockable. The Inovec huts are located in the Biskupice campsite, right in the first sector. The huts are designed for two people for the entire festival. The total rental price for three nights is €299. You can buy huts and other types of accommodation here.

TRENČÍN HUT
The hut dimensions are 2.5x2m – it has a large closeable window (without glass) with curtains and a sleeping place that accommodates two. A mattress with the dimensions 140x200cm offers comfortable sleep for a couple or parents with small children. Each hut is connected to the mains: it has a light bulb and a power plug. Each hut will be equipped with sheets, pillows, and blankets. In addition to the protection from possible bad weather, the tiny wooden huts also have a safety advantage – the key and a reception. You can rent the hut either in the Biskupice campsite or in the Family Camp. To stay in the Family Camp, at least one child under 12 must be accommodated with a legal guardian. Pregnant women must present a maternity record book. The price per hut for 3 nights is €419. You can buy huts and other types of accommodation here.

Security

The security of festival visitors is a priority for us. The security is being taken care of by a security service. It is established to protect visitors and keep guard of the festival area. Security is recognisable by their uniforms (with the word SECURITY). The security service is complemented by the Stewards and volunteers. It is forbidden to bring any objects that represent a danger to security or health - see the Restrictions section. For a pleasant festival, it is necessary to follow the instructions of the security and organisational service within its remit - in order to be at the festival it is necessary to wear visitor identification - festival bracelet. Off-site security is ensured by the City police of Trenčín, and members of the civil, military, and railway police.

The responsibilities and duties of the security services:

• checking tickets and festival wristbands (including the tent city)
• personal search (to prevent bringing dangerous and unauthorised items)
• escorting out of the area (persons without wristbands, aggressive people, people endangering the safety, unauthorised retailers and retailers infringing on the contract of sale, dealers of any drugs or psychotropic substances ...)
• guidance of the movement or evacuation
• prevention of the entry of visitors into restricted areas
• assistance to the disabled at the entrance into barrier areas and backstage
• information on medical services
• protection of performers, visitors, and festival facilities

We kindly ask you to report any problems with the members of the security services, or any security risk or threat to the organisers at the emergency hotline +421 800 500 090

Crowd assistants

During concerts, crowd assistants wearing yellow vests operate on grandstands and in the area between the stage and audience. Crowd assistants follow the course of events during concerts, helping visitors in case of nausea, dehydration, or excessive pressure in the front rows. Do not hesitate to contact them and ask for help: they are able to move anyone requiring help to the backstage area where first aid can be provided. In case of major problems, crowd assistants are also supported by festival security service.

Emergency infoline

An emergency line +421 800 500 090 is available for festival visitors and their loved ones who are not at the festival. Please use the line only in case of an extraordinary or emergency situation (accident, fire, theft, etc.). The line will only be available during the festival.

Emergency exits - EXIT

There are four main emergency exits at the festival:

• both the festival gates (GATE B and GATE O)
• one exit is located in the Family Park
• and one is opposite the main stage (Zlatý Bažant stage)

They are marked EXIT.

Emergency exits – EXITS are marked on the evacuation map in the festival magazine. The evacuation map will also be located on our site in the Maps section.

In case an urgent emptying of the area or gathering in a selected area became necessary, we kindly ask visitors to keep calm and follow the instructions of the security service.

In the long history of Pohoda, every lost child has been found within 20 minutes, so there is no reason to worry.

Family Park is available at the festival where a professional service can babysit your child. Babysitting time must be agreed with the service; maximum time is 3 hours. The Park is open on Friday and Saturday from 09:00 AM to 9:00 PM. There are several attractions in the park, a fun programme, a workshop tent, inflatables, and other attractions.

Only parents and children with special wristbands are allowed to enter the tent camp for families with children. Information can be obtained at the temporary reception desk at the entrance to the park, or from the park staff. Smoking and the consumption of alcoholic beverages are forbidden in the premises of the Family Park. Protect your children from excessive noise. If you are interested in comfortable accommodation at the festival, staying on wooden huts or Chill Village tents is available. Both are located in the Family Park. You can find more information in our Pohoda Shop.

Volunteers

Unfortunately, due to legislative, language and logistics reasons, we are able to employ only people with fluent Slovak or Czech language. Thank you for your understanding.

Drugs

Drugs are forbidden at the festival. Their selling and use are illegal and please note that police will monitor the festival grounds. At the festival, there are drug addiction treatment organisations and organisations involved in drug prevention, counselling, and reduction of risks related to the use of drugs in terms of harm reduction. People who use any drug should think about the risks associated with it, which can endanger health and life (for example, in combination with other drugs, direct sunlight, lack of fluid intake, exhaustion, heat in tents). Last but not least, it should be remembered that drugs may contain various impurities that can cause various unpredictable mental/physical conditions. Therefore, regular rest, shade and regular fluid intake (especially water, at least 3 dcl/hr) are necessary. If you do plan to use a drug, do not take it alone, have someone with you who you can rely on.

Should any problems connected with drug use occur with you or anybody else, in order to preserve your/their health, please do not hesitate to contact our health service, doctors at ambulance stations, workers of addiction treatment organisation, workers of harm reduction organisations or organisers. Until rescuers come, place the person involved in the stabilised position so that suffocation is avoided.

Users of injection drugs should remember that festivals are not absolutely hygienic. Think of others and protect them from your used devices. Avoid throwing needles into separate waste bins (it is hand-sorted). Dispose of them by dropping them into a plastic bottle/can and closing the container, or by stepping on the container and throwing it in a trash can. 

The festival offers a very varied program and it's a place where strong emotions can arise. Enjoy it without unnecessary problems.

Ecological transportation

The Pohoda Festival promotes mass transportation to the festival site, which not only is more environment-friendly but also makes the roads more accessible. Special festival buses and suburban buses are dispatched towards the festival site. Festival shuttle service is available within the city of Trenčín. 

The festival also supports sharing of passenger transport. You can head to our website to either find spare seats for you and your friends or offer a ride to others. Getting to Trenčín will be not just cheaper and greener, but also a whole lot more fun. Look for the "Together to Pohoda" link or the car icon in the bottom bar of our website. You can still connect with others through the popular Webparty using the tag #spolunapohodu, or through other online and offline options. 

The festival promotes also arriving by bicycles; bicycle locks are available at the gates. Festival visitors cannot use bicycles on the premises; however, they are the main means of transport for the festival team and are also recommended to artists and suppliers.

A regular part of the festival fleet is electric cars or electric bicycles.

Energy

The festival utilises the energy from the electric grid, generators, and solar power. The goal is to reduce the use of generators as much as possible; so far, temporary transformer stations manage to cover about 50% of the festival’s energy consumption from the fixed power grid. The main areas of the festival are illuminated by solar lamps.

Since 2016, the festival has been using a mobile solar power plant.

Smoking

Smoking is permitted in all uncovered areas except for the Family Park. Smoking is prohibited in all tents, especially for safety reasons, but it is also nice to be thoughtful and show respect for non-smokers. We kindly ask smokers to avoid smoking in the crowd during concerts at open stages. Also, please do not throw cigarette ends on the ground, use the designated ashtrays. Consider people around you and your environment. Thank you :)

Festival site

The festival grounds cover a total area of 72 hectares. It is divided into three basic zones: car park, tent camps, and the festival itself. The whole area is open non-stop during the festival. Each time you enter any of the zones, festival visitor identification will be checked. Random identification checks will be carried out in the whole festival area.

We open the festival site on Thursday 10 July 2025 at 12:00 noon. At this time, caravans will also be allowed to enter. If you have purchased regular parking, you can park at 09.00 AM. 

The Trenčín airport is the perfect combination of grass and concrete flatwork. All the areas with the expected higher concentration of visitors are located on concrete grounds or in the tents with a solid floor in order to prevent mud or dust from being formed. The main pedestrian pathways are on the concrete ground as well, so even if it rains, chances that your feet stay dry are quite high. There is also a plenty of grass for active or passive recreation. For a better understanding of the festival grounds, see the Maps section.

Photos / Videos

Photographing is only allowed for accredited photographers. Non-accredited photography is banned throughout the festival grounds. You can use automated non-professional cameras. It is forbidden to use cameras with flashes close to the stages. Each visitor to the festival agrees that photographs or other recordings with their person made during the festival may be used by any current or future technical method to promote the festival in future. Filming in a video or other formats (film, DV, DV Cam, Beta...) is forbidden throughout the festival grounds, except for accredited film crews.

Previously, duly accredited journalists have free access to the festival. Accreditation requests are accepted until 15 June 2025 and only via the online accreditation form. The organisers reserve the right to refuse or to grant accreditation. Accredited journalists must be properly identified. Accredited photographers and cameramen will receive a special photo-pass that will allow them to move under the stages in terms of the instructions provided at the Press Centre. Any limitations of photography, terms of press conferences and interviews with various performers will be notified at the Press Centre. The Press centre location is shown on the festival area map (see the Maps section).

More information can be found in the Press section.

Hygiene

The festival offers more than 150 flush toilets, more than 500 chemical toilets and several “pee zones” marked with pictograms. Toilets for disabled visitors are also available at the festival.

Showers and washrooms are located in the hygiene centres opposite the Zlatý Bažant stage, next to the Orange stage, and in the Family Camp. Please note that the water in the showers and washrooms at the Orange stage is not potable. Please water tanks and food stands.

Festival wristband identification

Upon producing a valid ticket, every visitor will receive a waistband, which serves as visitor identification. Wristbands will be placed on wrists. Please note that a wristband itself does not entitle you to enter the festival, it is possible only with QR code on wristband. 

Wristbands entitle visitors to move around the festival grounds and each visitor is obliged to show it to the security service or organising service when invited to do so. Identification wristbands are valuables; in case of loss, you will not be allowed to re-enter the festival, and a new identification wristband will not be issued. Visitors without a wristband will be escorted from the festival grounds; it is in your interest not to provide your wristband to other people. Visitors bear the consequences arising from the loss, damage, or theft of their identification wristband. Identification wristbands will be placed on the wrist; in special cases, they can be placed elsewhere (in case of allergy, skin disease, etc.).

Maps

See the Maps section. Printed map + line up can be found also at the Pohoda Shop. For better orientation, important areas and access to them are marked.

The evacuation map with emergency exits is also located on our site.

Caravans and trailers

Entry by caravan will be possible from Thursday 12:00 noon.

The caravan park is located in the camp adjacent to the festival car park, just behind the festival gates (see the Maps section). Caravan Parking has now been divided into sectors 1 – 4 based on distance from the festival site. We continue to offer festival extras in the price of Caravan Parking in the form of a caravan connection to electricity, access to drinking water, or its own reception. 

Caravan Parking 1 = Parking in the sector closest to the festival, 70 – 260 m from the festival entrance
Caravan Parking 2 = Parking in the middle sector, 260 – 410 m from the festival entrance
Caravan Parking 3 = Parking in the further sector, 410 – 670 m from the festival entrance 
Caravan Parking 4 = Parking in the farthest sector, 670 – 730 m from the festival entrance 

It has an own reception and electricity connection for caravan owners. Caravans must purchase a special parking sticker that must be produced in order for the camp service to allow them in the reserved sector. Visitors can enter and leave the sector with their car anytime, therefore, camping here is strictly forbidden; any set up tents will be folded and stored in the closest camp managerʼs office.

Caravan owners can choose from two options: if they want to connect to electricity, they must purchase parking for caravans and arrive directly at the caravan sector. Their car will be able to come and go anytime, which is why their parking sticker must be placed on the carʼs windscreen. The other option is to use a tent camp, in which case the trailer must be pushed from the public car park to the tent camp; no payment for the trailer is required. The car that brings the trailer must be parked in the car park; parking fees apply according to the selected sector.

If you do not have a caravan, but a converted normal van no longer than 5 m and do not need to be connected to electricity, you do not need to purchase caravan parking and can park in a normal car park.

CARAVAN PARKING -> Pohoda 2025

Camps

The tent camps are included in the festival grounds and are open from Thursday, 10 July from 12:00 noon until Sunday, 13 July until 4:00 PM.

Camping at the festival is free of charge. One tent camp (for pedestrian visitors) is located in the direction of Trenčín, and the second tent camp is headed towards Opatovce.

Camping in the tent camps is reserved for festival visitors only.

Camps are divided into sectors that are separated by footpaths—emergency corridors. We kindly ask that you keep a safe distance when setting up your tent and keep the footpaths clear. Camping on camp corridors, in the parking lot and outside the designated areas is prohibited; tents set up here will be folded including their equipment and stored in the camp managerʼs office in the nearest tent camp. The owners can pick them up there: identification will be requested.

It is forbidden to start fire in the tent camps throughout the festival grounds, as well as to use fire cookers with open flames; explosives of any kind, including fun pyrotechnics, are forbidden. If you smoke, do so with caution. The camps are equipped with water barrels and buckets for emergency in case of fire. If you spot a fire, please contact the security service, organising service or firemen immediately. There are several fire trucks docked in the festival area.

If you have rubbish to discard, try to use the nearest bin or leave your waste wrapped in plastic bags. Each tent will receive 2 plastic bags for waste disposal. Yellow bags are intended for separate collection (plastics, paper, metal), black bags are for other waste. On departure, please tie the bags and take them to the nearest container or large container. You can also leave them in place (see the Waste section). If you did not receive waste bags or you have already filled them up, please contact a camp manager or volunteers in the camp areas. For all additional restrictions that apply also on the entry to the camps, see the Restrictions section. 

The organisers are not responsible for the safety of items in the tent camps, and, therefore, we recommend not leaving valuables, money, etc. in your tent. If you carry valuables, use the cloakrooms.

Shuttle service

Pohoda has once again arranged shuttle services from Trenčín to the airport and back this year. Buses will run from the bus/train station to the festival's Gate B (from the Nozdrkovce side). The shuttle will operate from Thursday to Sunday.

EXACT SHUTTLE TIMES CAN BE FOUND AT THIS LINK

Ticket Price: 2 €

Transportation is provided by SAD Trenčín, a. s.

Merch

There will be a Pohoda Shop at the airport, where you can buy festival merchandise (clothing for children and adults, badges, magnets, jewellery, and other souvenirs), as well as the merchandise of the performing artists (CDs, vinyls, clothing, badges, etc.).

For comparison: the production of classic men T-shirt gives 5-12 kilograms of CO2, and in case of a men's sweatshirt, it is up to 27 kg. Thanks to a greener process, greenhouse gas emissions were reduced in average from 6 kg to 0.7 kg of CO2 in the production of one T-shirt.

The reduction of emissions by 89 % is mainly due to:

• the use of renewable energy sources,
• growing of cotton in areas where 95 % of the water is obtained from the monsoon rains, fighting pests with natural means,
• application of exclusively natural fertilizers (clothes can be branded as organic only when the land on which cotton is grown has been free of synthetic pesticides for at least three years),
• cotton is processed locally and is not transported for unnecessarily long distances,
• factories principally use energy from wind mills,
• dyeing process is powered by solar energy,
• finished textiles are imported in Europe always by ship transport, never by air.

In addition to ecology, an important part of the production process is respect for suitable conditions in production, i.e. FAIR WEAR (an equivalent of Fair Trade clothing industry). 

Motorcycles

Motorcycle owners must purchase parking cards "Parking MOTO". Motorcycles can be parked in a special sector at the festival gate (in front of the P0 parking zone). Parking next to friends who arrived by car is also possible and motorcycles can be stationed in any of the three sectors of the car park.

The car park is open non-stop from Thursday 9.00 AM until Sunday 8:00 PM (last entry is possible on Sunday 8:00 AM).

The Pohoda Festival aims to produce the smallest possible amount of waste. Thanks to active visitors and volunteers, the produced waste is turned into secondary raw materials or it is thoroughly separated and we strive for its ecological processing.

A unique solution is the establishment of collection points, where trained volunteers use the help of visitors to thoroughly separate plastics, paper, metal, and biological waste. The collection points operate non-stop, they also function as educational centres, and you can learn here how to separate correctly and what is the life cycle of various materials.

In addition to the collection points, more than 500 waste containers are located in the festival area; their location always allows at least basic separation. All waste containers carry descriptions that help distinguish them.

Another novelty is that all plastic bottles are required by law to have a deposit of €0.15, which is already included in the price of the beverage. You can take such plastic bottles home and then exchange them for cash/coupon in a grocery, or you can hand them in at the waste collection stations and at the Music Saves Ukraine tent. The entire proceeds from the returned bottles will go to this initiative. By donating a for-deposit bottle or can, you contribute to humanitarian aid to Ukraine.

Except for PET bottles, the Festival uses no single-use plastics. All dishes, cutlery, and straws are compostable. Biological waste from food stalls, along with dishes, cutlery, and straws, can be thrown after use into containers labelled BIO. Festival also separates oil and glass waste from our gastro sectors.

In the tent camp, each tent will receive two bags: one for separate collection, and the other for other waste. Separation bags are intended for empty plastic cups and bottles (with no drink leftovers, ideally also compressed), clean sacks, bags, foils, all kinds of paper, and cans. Everything else goes into the bag for municipal waste. The camps feature collection points for full bags; alternatively, you can tie waste bags and leave them on spot when you leave the festival. Waste collected in bags will be further sorted and then recycled.

The Festival uses reusable cups for all draft beverages and beverages served per cup. The deposit for each cup is €2. Used cups can be exchanged for fresh ones when buying another beverage; alternatively, you can leave cups at the special collection points (find letter "V" in festival map), and the deposit of €2 will be paid back to you. Cups are cleaned outside the festival grounds in a special washing line. Using a reusable cup just two times makes the cup more ecological than a single-use plastic cup.

Parking

The car park is open non-stop from Thursday 9.00 until Sunday 8:00 PM (last entry is possible on Sunday 8:00 AM). 

Entry by caravan will be possible from Thursday 12:00 noon.

The parking card is exchanged for a sticker onto which the vehicle registration number and driver telephone number should be written (to be contacted if necessary). A car with the sticker may leave and re-enter the car park at any time within the time frames indicated above.

Please be considerate and park your car the way that as many cars as possible can fit in the car park. The entrance to the car park is from the municipality of Opatovce. For a smooth arrival to the parking area – see the Maps section. The parking fee varies according to how close the parking sector is to the festival gate. 

Camping on the car park is prohibited. Any tents raised on the car park will be transferred with their equipment to the Camp Manager office located in the tent camp behind GATE O.

Parents with children under 6 years of age (inclusive), pregnant women, and visitors with limited mobility who purchased a parking card for any of the sectors and are able to produce a document confirming their condition/age (a pregnancy book, children’s health insurance card) will be admitted to Sector P0, which is located right at the festival gate.

Weather

The weather is monitored directly at the festival by professionals from Meteoservis – PONTEUM, s.r.o.. Weather conditions are updated 2 times a day on the festival site as well as in the festival app.

The time of the year when the festival takes place is typically warm and sunny, but we always recommend getting ready for both wet and dry weather conditions, as well as for cold nights and mornings.

As long exposure to the sun is expected, please protect yourself sufficiently from possible sunstroke (use baseball caps, hats, sunscreens and protective creams, drink plenty of water, etc.). Providing enough drinking water at the festival is a matter of course; water is available free of charge with no limitations.

The Trenčín airport is the perfect combination of grass and concrete flatwork. All the areas where a high concentration of visitors is expected are located on the concrete surface. Floors are laid on grass in front of big stages as well as in tents, so that any mud or dust formation is limited. Main pedestrian corridors are, too, located on concrete grounds.

The festival takes place in all weather conditions with the exception of natural disasters.

BE CAREFUL WHEN BUYING POHODA 2025 TICKETS FROM UNOFFICIAL SOURCES
Please remember that buying tickets through any channel other than the official ones is entirely at your own risk. We therefore strongly recommend buying tickets only through our website, our ticketing partner TicketLIVE, or our authorised secondary ticketing partner TicketSwap. Alternatively, tickets can be purchased at the physical shops of our contractual partners. This is the best way to avoid the risk of being denied entry to the festival due to an invalid ticket.

Q&A

I’d like to give my Pohoda 2025 ticket as a gift. Where can I buy a physical ticket?
You can buy a physical ticket on our website in the Shop section by selecting the “printed ticket” option when placing your order. Physical tickets are also available at official sales points in Bratislava, Trnava, and Trenčín.

We’re bringing children under 3 to Pohoda. Do they need a ticket?
Children under the age of 3 can attend the festival free of charge. You don’t need to purchase a ticket for them or register them in any special way before arriving. Upon entry, each parent and their child will receive a special wristband that includes the parent’s phone number. In case of need, staff from the Family Park will use it to contact the parent.

My 2.5-year-old child doesn’t have an ID or passport. How can I prove they’re under 3 and eligible for free entry?
In this case, we recommend bringing at least a copy of the child’s birth certificate.

My daughter is 14 and wants to go to Pohoda, but neither I nor my husband can attend. Can she go with my brother? Will a signed letter of authorisation from a legal guardian be enough?
Children aged 0 to 14 (inclusive) must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian to enter the festival. The parent or legal guardian must also hold their own adult ticket. Unfortunately, we do not accept letters of authorisation in such cases. You can find the official definition of a legal guardian (“zákonný zástupca” in Slovak) at www.slov-lex.sk.

I bought a ticket for Pohoda 2025 but won’t be able to attend due to personal reasons. Where can I return the ticket, or how can I safely resell it?
If you’re unable to attend the festival, we recommend selling your ticket through our official partner for secondary e-ticket sales and purchases – TicketSwap. You can also safely sell parking and accommodation tickets for Pohoda through this platform.

How does selling a ticket via TicketSwap work?
TicketSwap ensures safe and fair ticket sales and purchases through its website or mobile apps.

How to sell your ticket securely:

• Step 1: Go to www.ticketswap.com/pohoda-festival
• Step 2: Follow the instructions to upload the ticket you want to sell. It will be verified and then listed for resale.
• Step 3: Once sold, the money will be transferred to your account, usually the next working day.
• Step 4: The uploaded ticket becomes INVALID, and the buyer receives a brand-new, secure ticket.

For more details, visit: www.ticketswap.com

Can I sell a physical ticket on TicketSwap?
Unfortunately, it’s not possible to sell a physical ticket via TicketSwap, even if you scan it. TicketSwap currently does not accept scanned or physical tickets. They verify the authenticity of each ticket, and with physical tickets, they’re currently unable to guarantee security.

Can I sell a parking ticket on TicketSwap?
Yes, through the TicketSwap platform you can sell not only entry tickets but also parking tickets or accommodation at Pohoda (except for Family Camp and Comfort Camp). You can also safely buy tickets through this platform.

Can I sell a Family Camp or Comfort Camp ticket on TicketSwap?
No. Unfortunately, due to new rules requiring a specific number of people to be linked to each spot or voucher in the Family or Comfort Camp, it’s no longer technically possible to resell these through TicketSwap.

Can I sell products like AirBed Inn or Lock Inn via TicketSwap?
Yes. Apart from Family Camp and Comfort Camp tickets, you can sell any ticket or product purchased through Pohoda’s official channels on TicketSwap.

Can I sell a 3-Day ticket or Junior Ticket for ISIC/ITIC holders on TicketSwap?
Yes. However, the buyer must also hold a valid ISIC or ITIC card. The same applies to PwD and PwD-C tickets.

I’m 17 and accidentally bought a regular 3-Day ticket instead of a JUNIOR ticket. Will I be allowed in with this ticket? Can I exchange the regular ticket for a JUNIOR ticket when I arrive at the festival?
If you are still under 18 on the day you arrive at the festival, you will need a JUNIOR ticket. In this case, we recommend safely reselling your regular Pohoda ticket via TicketSwap and purchasing the cheaper JUNIOR ticket instead. Correctly identifying our underage visitors is important to us — for example, it allows bar staff to easily recognise those under 18.

Lost and Found

There are two cloakrooms on the festival site, one in each camping site. They operate non-stop and free of charge. In the central part of the festival, there's also a Lock Inn service for valuables. In case of loss or found, please visit Lost & Found Tent, which is located between the carousel wheel and the Sunflower Bar (Bar Slnečnice) - see the map.

If you want to report a loss, it is necessary to provide an accurate description of the lost item and your contact information. Items left after the festival at our information desk or in Lost and Found, as well as things that are found while cleaning the festival area, will be published on our facebook page and on our website. Usable things that won't get picked up by their owners until the end of the year will be donated to charity.

Health

Protect your health. Be considerate and be sure not to bring any glass and other objects to the festival that may cause injury. In case of any problem, do not hesitate to contact the paramedics; there are 4 fixed paramedic facilities at the festival that are marked with a red cross on a yellow background. Refrigerators in the paramedic facilities are ready to store insulin or other medicines. Don’t gamble with substances that are harmful to health, prohibited, and the content of which is unknown to you; see Drugs. Protect yourself from sunlight (use hats, drink plenty of water, apply sunscreen). Maintain basic hygiene, especially wash your hands. Protect yourself also from excessive noise (earplugs are available at the Pohoda shop). Should prevention fail, see First aid.
