The biggest festival of electronic music in the heart of Europe will open its doors on Friday, July 1st 2022 from 16:00. This year, dance music fans will have 4 days full of performances by foreign and Czech DJs, artists and performers, who will perform on 13 stages in the Dolní Vítkovice area. This year promises the largest number of headliners and the strongest line up in history. There will be a rich accompanying program this year as well.
This year's festival will feature Armin van Buuren, Alan Walker, Lost Frequencies, Timmy Trumpet, Vini Vici, Alle Farben, Andy C, Ben Sims, Eats Everything, Matador, Modestep Live, Plump DJs, Stereo MCs, Sefa, The Advent, Wilkinson and another 400 performers from around the world. All performers of this year can be found here.
As always, visitors can look forward to the accompanying program, which is also lit this year. In addition to traditionally popular activities, such as beer pong, a parkour exhibition, face painting, a DJ school, an American football workshop or table football, this year there will be a ninja track by Česká spořitelna, Oxygen Bar Vítkovice or ČEZ Energy zone. Regular yoga lessons are also prepared at the Love Camp and, in cooperation with the Rozkoš bez rizika health organization, also HIV tests. The good news is that there will be a non-stop depository for valuables, the possibility of charging phones and four ATMs to withdraw cash in front of the main entrance to the festival area.
Last but not least, the festival has a charitable overlap this year as well. There will be a public fundraising in support of two-year-old Greta Grässle, eleven-year-old Petr Adámek and twenty-six-year-old Natálie Kissová. All three suffer from cerebral palsy. The money raised will help provide better rehabilitation and special aids.

We have prepared a festival app for visitors with smartphones using the Android or iOS operating system. You can find there information about the festival, line up, festival map, a map of the area, navigation in the area and navigation that will guide you to the entrance to the festival.

Lost & founds will be collected at the INFO stand next to the entrance & cup returns (you can get there a flyer with timetable & the festival map, too). There will also be 6 rescue service stations & firefighters situated in the festival area (marked on the map).
PROHIBITIONS AND REQUEST TO RESPECTING THE RULES
It is forbidden to bring food, drinks, narcotics and psychotropic substances into the complex (more than 50 police officers from the national anti-drug headquarters will move in the festival area, with whom we work closely) and weapons. For this reason, it will be necessary for each visitor to undergo a security check, which will be made by the security service. It is important for the safety of all of us, we thank you for respecting it. (Of course, food and drinks can be brought in a reasonable amount both in Love Camp and Love Village).
Shooting with ordinary cameras and shooting on mobile phones is allowed, recordings with professional equipment can only be made on the basis of an approved accreditation. There is a strict ban on starting a fire in the entire festival area, in the camp areas and in the car park. We ask visitors to keep it tidy. The festival area will not be comfortable and safe enough for dogs and other animals, and therefore their entry into the festival area, Love camp and Love village is prohibited.
PAYMENT AT THE FESTIVAL & MOBILE ATMS - FOUR ATMS ALTOGETHER!
At the entire festival area and in both camps you can pay only in cash and only in Czech crowns.

There will be a sufficient number of water gates for basic hygiene in the area, which are connected to the water supply system. But we cannot know how old the pipes are, so therefore we cannot declare that it is a drinking water, even though it should be one. This is why we recommend drinking water from bars. Drinking water will definitely be in the paid ceramic toilets next to the Drum and Bass stage and in the ceramic toilets in the area of the VIP zone U6 behind Evropa 2 House square.

You will make not only yourself but also others happy. Thank you!
HOW WEATHER CAN INFLUENCE FESTIVAL?
The total surface area consists of ⅘ of asphalt / concrete / slag and 1/5 remaining consists of the grass area. We recommend quality sturdy shoes! We definitely do not recommend coming in flip flops, sandals, high heels and similar types of shoes. In case of rain, there is a cover for more than 16,000 visitors in the whole area so in case of rain we still do continue! We recommend everyone to take raincoats (umbrellas are forbidden) so that we can all swear together after the festival - so why the hell did we take them?! :)
