Rototom Sunsplash brings together two spaces with different rules: the concert arena and the campsite. Access conditions for the arena are stricter than those for the campsite, so what you can bring with you depends on which of the two you are entering.

Audiences may be searched on entry. You can leave and re-enter the arena as many times as you like within opening hours, and there are free drinking water points in both the concert area and the campsite.

Concert arena

Food and drink

Food and drink may not be brought into the festival arena, with these four exceptions:

• A sandwich (or similar) in your hand, intended for immediate consumption.
  
• Water, provided the container is not hard or dangerous.
  
• Baby food.
• Food for food intolerances, allergies or other medical conditions, supported by a medical certificate or equivalent document, which must be shown on entry.

Access with alcoholic drinks and with bags full of food is specifically prohibited, in order to safeguard food safety and to uphold the ban on alcohol consumption by minors.

Items that cannot be brought in

• Bottles and glass objects
• Fireworks and pyrotechnics
• Weapons
• Laser pointers
• Sprays of any kind
• Drugs
• Any object the organiser considers dangerous, or that is prohibited under current legislation

Filming the festival

You may take photos and videos for strictly personal use. 

Drones

Flying drones at the festival is not permitted. The airspace above the site is restricted, which means drones cannot be flown even if you hold a licence.

Getting around the arena

Motor vehicles of any kind are not allowed inside the arena. Scooters and bicycles may only be used until 20.00.

Pets

Pets are not admitted to the arena. The single exception is set out below.

Campsite

At the campsite there is no closed list of items: the rule is that no object the organiser considers dangerous, or that is prohibited under current legislation, will be admitted. On top of that general rule come the campsite's own prohibitions, nearly all of them to do with fire.

You can bring

• Food, water and drinks in sealed bottles, for personal use
• A 20-25 m extension cable with a ZETAC plug, if you have booked electricity in the Camper Zone or the Family Zone

You cannot bring

• Camping gas or any utensil that produces a flame
• Gas cylinders
• Cooking appliances and electric cookers
• Metal items and utensils the organiser considers dangerous
• Fireworks and pyrotechnics
• Pets

And inside the campsite, the following is not allowed

• Lighting fires
• Preparing or selling food or drink
• Connecting to the electrical panels yourself
• Tying ropes, cables, tents or awnings to the trees

In the free camping areas and in the reserved tent pitches you may only camp with a tent: vehicles are not allowed. Campervans and vehicles equipped for sleeping may only stay in the Camper Zone.

Cooking is already taken care of

Each camping area has a marquee with ceramic hobs and sinks, free to use, open from 8.00 to 24.00. Maximum time per user is 40 minutes, and very large pots are not accepted.

Animals: one single exception

To safeguard the safety of everyone attending and the welfare of the animals themselves, pets are not admitted anywhere at the festival. Guide dogs for people with visual impairments and medical assistance dogs for diabetes and epilepsy are admitted, provided the handler carries at all times the animal's documentation and training certificate issued by an officially accredited training centre -ONCE, ACEPADE, the Spanish Red Cross, ADI or IGDF- and the animal remains leashed and under control at all times. No other exception is made.

What happens if the rules aren't followed

These rules exist so that thousands of people can share the same space safely for six days. The organiser may refuse entry or ask anyone who does not respect them to leave the site, and in that case the ticket price is not refunded.

Valuables

Both the campsite and the arena have lockers where you can keep your valuables safe, along with a device charging service. Access to and presence on the site is at the attendee's own risk: the organiser is not liable for any loss or theft that may occur.

Everything that governs the relationship between the organiser and those attending is set out in full in the terms of sale and access to the festival site, and the campsite's specific rules in the campsite rules.
