Does the name on my ticket have to match my ID?
Yes. EA2021 Tickets are named; You are able to edit and make a name change by logging into your Ticket Fairy account here.
Can I bring my pupper?
Dogs love to rave, we get it. Unfortunately, EA is a strictly human-only event.
I need to leave the venue, but want to come back later. Will I be let back in?
No, once you leave the festival that’s it. You won’t be allowed to re-enter the festival. There are strictly no ‘pass outs.’
Can I bring a sealed bottle of water into the Festival?
No, no food or drink is permitted. You may bring one empty plastic drinking water bottle, up to 1L in size. There are plenty of taps inside the venue to fill these up with. Glass, metal and other solid bottles will not be permitted.
Can I bring a bag into the festival?
Small bags, bum bags and handbags up to 30cm x 30cm are permitted inside the festival. Bags larger than 30cm x 30cm will not be permitted.
It’s hot / wet – can I bring an umbrella or parasol?
No, umbrellas are not permitted.
The forecast suggests rain or poor weather, what should I do?
Poor weather is part of the excitement of a live outdoor event. Make sure you check the forecast in advance, prepare with warm clothing and rain protection (Coats or Ponchos) but do not bring a jacket. Weather cover is limited within this venue, so preparedness is your friend.
Can you store my jacket until I get cold?
There is a coat check in VIP only. If you are attending in General Admission, we are unable to store coats or bags. Pack light and bring only what you absolutely need.

Can I apply for an internship with Team Event?
We are not accepting interns for the 2021 season.
I own a drone (UAV), can I fly it over the festival?
Unfortunately, the CAA and Christchurch City Council prohibits the use of drones over crowds of this size and over Public Spaces such as Hagley Park. The New Zealand Police have an on-site command station with the ability to terminate unmanned aerial vehicles that fly over this prohibited airspace. We strongly recommend avoiding the Hagley Park area on the day of the event.
