TErms and conditions
Terms and Conditions are a set of guidelines for how we can all have a great festival – together!
You agree to the Terms and Conditions when you sign up as a volunteer. Therefore, it’s important that you read them thoroughly so you know what you’ve agreed to.

– I have to resign myself at my profile in Ruby if I want to resign before the deadline of June 10th.
– I must directly inform my Teamleader if I need to resign after the deadline of June 10th. I find my Teamleader’s information in Ruby under “my teams.”
– if I have to cancel a shift and there is less than two days until my shift, it is necessary to call my Teamleader. If my Teamleader is not answering I have to send a text message. My cancellation is not valid until I have received a response from my Teamleader.
– it is my own responsibility to resign correctly and that I must be able to provide proof that I have done so in accordance with the terms and conditions of the festival.
– in special cases the festival may require the presentation of a medical certificate.I am responsible for any associated costs, which will be refunded by the festival upon submission of a receipt to volunteer@tinderbox.dk.
Deposit, fee and blacklisting – I understand that:
– when I register, I have to pay a deposit of 300 DKK. The full deposit will be refunded after the festival if I attend my shifts and followed the terms and conditions.
– in case I have to resign after the deadline I will lose my deposit of 300 DKK. No matter the circumstances for my cancellation.
– I may be charged a fee up to 2.700 DKK beside my deposit if I do not attend my shift without cancellation or serious violation according to to the terms and conditions. For the same reasons, I may be blacklisted as a volunteer for the festival for two years.
– there are special rules for resigning if I already received my wristband with access to the festival.
If I resign either before the festival or Thursday or Friday during the festival, I must send a picture of my cut wristband as documentation to volunteer@tinderbox.dk with the subject “cut wristband” one hour after my resign at latest.
If I do not comply this, the festival has the right to keep my deposit and add a fee of up to DKK 2700 as well as blacklist me.
If I resign for a shift on Saturday during the festival and/or a shift after the festival, I will receive a fee of minimum DKK 1500.
– that I risk being sent to debt collection if I don’t pay my fee.

– it is forbidden to take pictures or videos of the artists, ask for an autograph, or contact them in any way. I will respect the artists’ privacy.
– all communication with the pres is handled through the management. Therefor I am not allowed to talk to the press about the festival or on behalf of the festival. If the press contacts me, I will refer them to the press department, which can be contacted at presse@downthedrain.dk.
Photography, drones and video surveillance – i understant that:
– the festival has photographers on site who take pictures of guests and volunteers for the purpose of publishing them on the festival’s website, social media, and on the festival grounds. As a volunteer, I have the option to report pictures where I am identifiable to the festival to have them deleted if I wish.
– I will experience periods during the festival where drones will be flying around the location. These drones are approved and they follow the guidelines. All pictures are overview and atmosphere pictures. These pictures will be used to optimize our logistics and contents to marketing.
In addition to above terms and conditions, it is expected that you of course follow normal terms for good behavior and regulations from the security staff – they are here to take care of us all and secure that the festival will be fantastic.
