Leave no trace. With your help, Folk Fest is a sustainable event. Pack out everything you bring in. Campsites must be kept clean. Anything that has a larger impact (e.g. digging holes, using lumber) must be pre-approved by the Winnipeg Folk Festival (WFF). Make sure water taps are turned off when not in use and make sure to remove any ropes you tie to trees when you leave. Keep alcohol in its place. Open alcohol is not allowed on the festival site, parking lots, on trails, roads, Pope’s Hill or anywhere outside the festival site or campgrounds. Alcohol is only allowed on the festival site when purchased and consumed in the Folk Fest taverns. No personal vehicles are allowed. Due to the high density of pedestrians in the area we are unable to accommodate the use of personal motorized vehicles anywhere on our premises. Bicycles are not permitted at Folk Fest (a bike lockup is available just outside the festival entrance), and should be used with caution in the festival campgrounds. Please walk your bike on all trails you share with pedestrians. Smile – you may be on camera. You acknowledge that people are using video and photographic cameras at the event and that your image may be captured on video or in photographs, which may subsequently be displayed or disseminated without your consent or payment of compensation to you and you release the WFF from any legal liability for such filming, photographing or dissemination. You understand and accept that other than for personal use, images, film or video you obtain at the event may not be used without the prior written permission of the WFF.
