Health & Wellness

It’s easy to get separated at festivals. Know where your friends are, set up meeting points, and stick together—two or three brains are better than one! If you think a new or old friend needs help, ask our friendly staff to assist, and always leave the show with everyone in your crew.

Come prepared for all types of weather, and definitely dress for comfort. Wear lightweight, breathable clothes that make you feel good. If you choose to wear heavy fabrics and faux furs, remember to stay hydrated. Comfortable sneakers are the best way to go, especially if you’re planning to tear up the dancefloor. Sandals and flip-flops can make for sore feet.

Whether you’re a nonstop dancing machine or you like to stroll through the festival and take in all the sights and sounds, hydration is essential to keeping you going all day long. That’s why we provide hydration stations throughout the venue—free of charge! Look for the water droplet symbols on the festival map to find the nearest station, and fill up your reusable Insomniac water bottle (get your very own at our merch booth!), hydration pack, or any empty beverage container (purchased inside the event). The water may not be icy cold, but warm water is easier to digest, and it’s lovingly filtered through state-of-the-art systems, including UV sterilization.

Ground Control is a family of team members dedicated to helping Headliners stay happy, healthy, and hydrated at Insomniac events! You can spot their signature purple shirts, fanny packs, and light sabers as they make their way through all areas of the festival. Please approach any of them if you want assistance or simply need a friend—or find your way to the Ground Control Oasis if you're looking for a place to chill. We strongly believe in the beauty and power of helping others, and we’ll do everything we can to make sure you have a safe, memorable experience.

Throughout the festival grounds, you’ll find teams of friendly medical practitioners ready to care for your every need—free of charge, no questions asked. If you’re lightheaded or nauseated or have too many blisters from dancing the night away, please visit one of our first aid tents. Or feel free to flag down one of the many Insomniac Health & Safety Team officers roaming throughout the venue. These heroic people stay on their feet for the entirety of every event to keep a watchful, caring eye on you!

Escape is an amazing adventure; you can enjoy the show without alcohol or illegal narcotics. If you’re under 21, you can’t drink—period. If you’re of legal age, be smart about how much you consume. More booze does not equal more fun, and alcohol is not a beverage to cool off or rehydrate with. It’s important to remember that your body weight and height will factor into how much alcohol is safe to consume.

Insomniac enforces a zero-tolerance drug policy at all of its events—end of story. Don’t be the person that ends up getting escorted out of the venue! Keep the experience great for yourself, your friends, and your fellow Headliners.
