Rhythm and Vines continues to focus their attention on being the safest New Year’s destination possible. From Dec 3, attendees this year are encouraged to complete their Warrant of Festival Fitness, an unofficial document that shows that they have ticked the boxes on attending the festival, knowing all the safety features available at the event including downloading the Mobile App, getting to know the Text Helpline and what to do if they see someone in trouble, where to go to get help, through to Ear health safety, Driver Fatigue, Lost and Found and more.

Festival Director Kieran Spillane says: “It is exciting that each year over 50% of our attendees are new to Rhythm and Vines and are yet to experience the magic. I am really proud of the work and effort our team puts into ensuring the festival is a safe and inclusive place for all our festival goers.

We are pleased the 2024 festival will see the return of our Haven, a care space available to our attendees wishing to escape the noise for a bit, chat to a trained counsellor or simply lie down in a safe space.”

With close to 100 acts tipped to perform at Rhythm and Vines, the first release certainly gives festival fans a mouth watering taste of what is to come. Drink lots of water because this New Year is going to be spicy!

AWARD-WINNING BOOKATENT SAVES 25% OF SINGLE USE TENTS ENDING UP IN LANDFILL

Rhythm and Vines continues to fight the battle against single use tents entering the festival. To secure your space in New Zealand’s largest campground, attendees will be required to purchase a Bookatent pre-setup tent package. People who purchase the Bookatent packages simply turn up to the festival with their tent already pre-setup and ready to party. The festival will then pack down and clear the tents, re-using at future festivals and events in New Zealand. 25% of the tents at Rhythm and Vines are Bookatent, providing a quarter reduction in single use tents ending up at landfill.
