FREE WATER OUTLET
There will be free water outlets throughout this event. Please ensure that the free water outlet is turned off when not in use to conserve water. You will also be able to request a cup of water from any bar. Please see attached the site plan for the location/s of the water refill outlet/s

RAIN / SUN PROTECTION
Parklife is outdoors, so please bring sun / rain protection as we play rain hail or shine.

FIRST AID
We want you to have the best day possible so to ensure that you have a safe party we have employed a fully equipped first aid team to be on site for the duration of the event. Please see the site plan for the first aid location/s. We need you to be a responsible patron by ensuring you always know where the closest first aid station is, looking out for your friends (and taking them to first aid at the first sign of trouble), drinking plenty of water and making sure you take breaks during the day.

CLOAK ROOM
Parklife will have a cloakroom that will be open for the duration of the event. There will be a charge to check and recheck items. Please ensure you keep your ticket so you can claim your items at the end of the day. All care but no responsibility is taken for items checked into the cloak room. Please see the site plan for the cloakroom location.

EFTPOS
There will be eftpos on site for this event however as this event is in a park our eftpos machines run via a mobile phone signal. This means that there may be times during the day when we are unable to do cash outs so please make sure you bring enough cash to enjoy your day. Please see the site plan for the eftpos location/s.

LOST AND FOUND
All lost and found during the event will be handed into the cloakroom. If it is not there don’t despair as often things turn up after the event. Please call the Future office on 03) 9686 1166 two days after the event to enquire about any lost property.
