On Sunday, we want to enjoy breakfast together, and you're welcome to bring anything you love on your bread roll.

On all other days, you can also purchase fresh rolls from us during breakfast time.

The brickworks site where the homeward festival takes place is at best barrier-free. In addition to the uneven meadows, which become muddy when it rains, as well as the slopes on our site, we are not barrier-free. However, the wheelchair-bound visitors of recent years have proven that this is not an insurmountable obstacle. You will find barrier-free porta-potties at the toilet container as well as on the campsite. 

We want more accessibility and participation at the homeward festival. Do you have specific needs so that you can take part in the festival? Then please send us an email to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
We can't make any promises, but we would like to find solutions together so that you can be there. The focus is on people with disabilities, whether visible or invisible. We look forward to hearing from you. We would also be happy to receive feedback and improvements for next year. For more inclusion on a common homeward journey.

If you run out of cash, you can withdraw money from the bureau de change using your EC card.

Please leave your confetti at home to protect the environment! After the festival, the meadow must look like it did before. As you can imagine, confetti is incredibly difficult to pick up and flies away quickly. Be mindful of nature. 

Please take full responsibility for your pet’s well-being.

At Homeward, dogs must be registered at the entrance and kept on a short leash at all times. If your dog is not used to strangers or crowds, please equip them with a bite guard (muzzle or Halti).

Follow the instructions of the security and make sure to clean up after your dog.

Bringing your own drinks is generally allowed. However, you might want to support Homeward by purchasing drinks on-site—we offer a great selection at fair prices!

The sale and consumption of illegal drugs and cannabis are strictly prohibited. Please be mindful of your alcohol consumption and know your limits.

During the day, you’ll find a variety of delicious food options at Homeward. To purchase food, you’ll need food tokens, which can be bought at the entrance (09:00-17:00) and at the merch stand (17:00-23:00). Simply use them to pay at the food stands.

Every meal you enjoy helps support our festival—thank you! Feel free to bring your own dishes and cutlery for your meals.

If you lose or find something, you can easily hand it in at our merch stand, at the steward center or to our helpers. If you miss something after the festival, please contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. They will help you there. 

All participants agree that photos and video recordings taken during the event may be distributed and published without any compensation claims.

You are allowed to take photos with analog and digital 35mm cameras and your cell phone cameras. SLR cameras and other cameras with interchangeable lenses are not permitted.

If you feel uncomfortable or have a problem, please don’t hesitate to speak to our stewards or go directly to the steward headquarters.

You can recognize the stewards by their red T-shirts labeled "Ordner" or red hoodies labeled "Crew".

The security personnel hold the house authority over the entire festival grounds.

If we are hit by severe weather, please leave the infield immediately and avoid tents and pavilions. If you have arrived by car, make yourself comfortable there and offer this protection to other visitors. The best way to signal this is with the warning light.  

Smoking is generally allowed on the festival grounds and campsites. Please be mindful of those around you and dispose of your cigarette butts in the ashtrays!
