Rules

These rules apply to everyone without exception. For your safety and the safety of others, the festival may ask you to leave site if you do not adhere.

Crowd Management

  • Do not encourage moshing, stage diving, crowd surfing, “walls of death,” or other hazardous audience activities.
  • Security and Stage Managers may stop a performance to ensure audience safety.
  • Do not invite audience members onto the stage or any structure.
  • Artist management must acknowledge receipt of the Festival Show Stop Procedure and confirm compliance. Any deviation must be agreed with Senior Management in advance.

Health & Safety

  • Comprehensive first aid is provided at all times.
  • All accidents, incidents, and near misses must be reported to Artist Liaison immediately.
  • Report anything unsafe promptly. The Event Safety Advisor’s decision is final.

Noise Management

  • Noise levels are monitored by an independent contractor.
  • Sound engineers must keep shows within set reasonable limits.
  • If off-site noise exceeds limits, PA levels must be reduced until compliant.
  • On-site amplified sound must remain within safe limits (to avoid headaches, hearing loss, and other damage).

Show Stop

  • Used only for immediate life-safety threats or serious incidents.
  • May be called only by: a senior member of the Truck Festival Operational Team, the Stage Manager, or the Pit Security Supervisor.
  • If called, the artist must halt the performance immediately.
  • Before stage time, the artist representative must meet festival staff to confirm the process.
  • The artist representative (Tour Security / Stage Manager / Tour Manager) must remain at the stage throughout the set.
  • Ideally, the artist addresses the crowd directly. If not, the Stage Manager will make announcements.
  • Restarting the show is decided by Senior Event Management after consulting Security, Medical, Stage Manager, and Artist Party.

Smoking

Smoking is illegal in virtually all enclosed public places and work areas. This includes dressing rooms, catering areas, onstage, FOH mix positions, and vehicles used to transport artists/equipment around site.
