Our number one priority is keeping you safe at R&A! From the moment you leave your door, to the mosh and back, we provide a range of awesome resources to help you out. Check out our partners below as well as what to do If you're not having a good time, find yourself in an unsafe situation or there's an emergency. We're here to help!
At The Festival
R&A TEXT HELPLINE
This year we are offering a text helpline that will connect you directly with support staff. If you or someone you know need help during the festival you can text "ASSIST" and what's up to 260.
You'll be immediately connected to our on-site team.
Travelling Safely
NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi (NZTA)
The roads around Wānaka this time of year are very busy and can be extremely dangerous. Travelling to and from a music festival introduces other potential risk factors such as alcohol, fatigue and distraction. Take breaks, drive well-rested and ALWAYS have a designated sober driver.
If you're attending locally, we also partner with Yello! to offer handy bus services.
Our mates at the NZTA have put together heaps of info to help you plan your journey; find out more below!
