We strongly advise you to not buy tickets from private sellers (ebay, facebook, instagram, willhaben etc.). And please do not buy tickets via ticketing resale platforms like Viagogo. Unfortunately, there have often been problems with fake tickets, with which the entrance to the festival and camping grounds will be refused. Please only buy tickets at the official FQ Ticket outlets: oeticket/eventim, Raiffeisen, Musicticket or at www.frequency.at/tickets.
Please help protect the environment and keep your campsite clean!
Setting up party tents is not recommended for safety, space and environmental reasons. If you do bring one, please make sure that it is used by several festival visitors and covers at least 50% of the sleeping tent.
We recommend not taking children under the age of 10 to a concert/festival, but the decision ultimately lies with the parent or guardian. If your child is to be present, please be sure to provide age-appropriate hearing protection.
In any case, the latest version of the Lower Austrian Youth Protection Act must be observed. The security is instructed to ensure compliance with this law.
All visitors need a valid festival or day pass, regardless of age.
For damages, injuries and theft on the whole festival area (parking, camping and caravan area, as well as the core area, etc.) no liability is assumed! Please take good care of your valuables.
Swimming in the Traisen river is possible, but the organizer advises against it! We would like to point out that the Traisen is a flowing river and bathing in it can be dangerous. Attention! The organizer does not assume any liability. Please take care of the environment and do not throw garbage into the Traisen!

House Rules FM4 Frequency Festival
Fire brigade: (+43) 122
Police: (+43) 133
Ambulance: (+43) 144
The fire brigade should immediately be informed if a fire breaks out anywhere, even if it appears to be already under control, or seems to be extinguished.On both big stages, at the campsite as well as at the caravan site there is a station with trained medical staff.
Open air events can lead to unexpected measures due to the weather. (Interruption of performances, field evacuation, tent evacuations ...). These measures are announced through speakers, screens and security services. In this case, the instructions of the security service must be followed without contradiction!
If you are in danger of (lightning) storms, please go to your cars and help other visitors without a car and offer your free places, if possible! (You can show free places by switching on the hazard flasher!) Please avoid dangerous spots such as big tents, trees towers and superstructures!
Security checks happen at the entrance to the campsite and the site, where dangerous objects will be removed! According to our house rules, carrying dangerous objects is prohibited! With the access to the main area, the visitor agrees with a person control and body check - as well with the search of objects like bags. If necessary, these checks are also carried out with the aid of technical equipment (eg metal detectors). For items that are handed over to the security service for safekeeping, the receipt must always be kept. No return without a receipt.
There will be Wavebreakers on both stages. When crossing maximum capacity the wavebreakers will be closed temporary during the concerts in oder to provide you with full safety and a comfortable concert experience.
The festival app is your best companion on site! There you can find the personalized timetable, our interactive area map, your cashless wallet and more! We will also send you push messages with important infos or updates directly to your smartphone.
