It is recommended you bring zip ties to help secure tent walls at night. If you have arranged to bring your own tent, you are responsible for bringing your own walls and weights.

INTERNET + MOBILE SERVICE

Standard internet can be provided in the Kula Marketplace. Please request via your Wanderlust point of contact in advance of arriving onsite.

If high speed internet access is mission critical, we recommend you bring your own 4G/LTE hotspot(s) as backup. The quality of mobile 4G/LTE access on the festival grounds varies by carrier, phone/hotspot type, and the location of the event, so please discuss with your Wanderlust point of contact in advance so we can make appropriate recommendations. Regardless of your connection type, Wanderlust cannot guarantee 100% Internet uptime at any event.

Use of compostable products is mandatory at all Wanderlust Events. In order to comply with these greening initiatives, styrofoam and plastic food service ware is not permitted. We appreciate your support in our recycling and composting program!

Please break down your cardboard and separate recyclables from trash at your booth. If you need bags, or require extra bins or service, please ask your onsite Wanderlust contact or a green team member. Clear or white bags are for recycling and black bags are for trash. All food and compost must go in compostable receptacles lined with either green or clear bags.

Please DO NOT leave anything behind. This includes weights for your tents such as cinder blocks, sand from sand bags, pallets, carpets, décor, etc.

Wanderlust will place trash/recycling receptacles throughout the village, however any receptacles within the booth are your responsibility.

Please be respectful of the festival grounds by leaving no trace behind.

SUSTAINABILITY

No promotional giveaways made from plastic are permitted. Please refrain from any plastic or unnecessary individual packaging for samples or giveaways. Conserving when possible is much appreciated. All printed promotional materials must be printed on recycled paper, however, we encourage reducing printed materials by providing brand messaging and discount codes on display boards.

SIGNAGE/BANNER MATERIALS

Wanderlust encourages our partners to use signage and banners with sustainable materials, such as natural fabrics or reclaimed wood, instead of vinyl or plastic whenever possible.
