    • In addition to the ability to get back the balance that you can easily return in the Internet (only available with personalization), you can also get paid by cash in one of the major stations of replenishment (near the point of issuance of the bracelet at the entrance of the festival venue and camping near the food court).

  • Where can I get the Map?
    You can get your Card at the festival each point of recharge (Ladestation)

    Is there a Deposit for the Card?

The return Card is only possible on the marked points until Sunday 18.06.2017 12:00.
    How can I add money to a cashless card?

    You can buy a credit voucher Nova Rock in advance in the online store (store will be open soon). When a sale is completed you receive a code that you can use on the website to quickly get the map (quick access for holders of vouchers). Credit vouchers are available in the following options:

    Hours recharge stations?

    Is there a limit on the amount of contributions received?

    Generally, no restrictions on funds. But it makes sense to put suitable amount on the entire festival at once:

    • You will save yourself from some unnecessary trips to refill.
    • You will not happen the situation that you find yourself in the bar and in the calculation you will understand that money is not enough
    • You can easily and conveniently get their money, so better to add too much than too little (see "How do I get my money?").
