ADMISSION & TICKETS

Tickets are only available online from the official Mo:Dem shop or directly through Mo:Dem ambassadors.

Do not buy tickets from other sources, as invalid tickets will not be allowed entry into the festival site.

Tickets purchased from Mo:Dem ambassadors are exempt from the booking fee.

Mo:Dem Festival tickets are issued in electronic form as an “e-ticket”. Mo:Dem Festival does not issue any “physical tickets”.

Mo:Dem Festival e-tickets are personalised and need to be registered with a valid name and surname. There will be no admission without a valid ticket. Please check all your tickets on purchase, as mistakes cannot always be rectified.

Tickets bought from ambassadors are personalised immediately by the ambassador, and tickets bought online need to be personalised by you immediately upon purchase.

You may purchase more than one ticket per transaction. You must provide the name and surname of each participant while placing an order. After successfully placing and paying for your order you will be emailed a “purchase confirmation”, this is NOT your e-ticket. E-ticket will be sent subsequently by Mo:Dem Festival.

Ticket(s) cannot be exchanged, transferred or resold. If this ticket(s) is re-sold or transferred for profit or commercial gain by anyone other than Mo:Dem Festival or one of its authorised sub-agents, it will become void and the holder may be refused entry or removed from the site.

Upon arrival at the festival your e-tickets are only valid in combination with valid ID / passport. Your ID / Passport must match the name on your e-ticket. We do not accept a written mandate to transfer personalised tickets.

Valid Tickets purchased for Mo:Dem Festival will be replaced at the festival entrance with a festival wristband. Only visitors with a valid festival wristband are allowed entry and movement in the festival area. Festival wristbands may not be removed, cut, torn or damaged in any way or they cease to be valid. The festival reserves the right to request identity validation by presenting a valid ID to the festival staff upon request.

Mo:Dem Festival may decline or forbid entrance into the festival to anyone who might in any way endanger the safety of the visitors or cause any kind of problems.

Admission and participation at the festival is at the visitors’ own risk. Mo:Dem Festival and the Landowner will not be held liable for any loss, injuries or damages sustained at the event, including damage, theft or losses to property and motor vehicles, if the cause is due to the negligence of the festival organiser, ticket holder or the unforeseeable actions of other patrons or third parties.
