Everything you need to know during the event

While we invite you to bring what you need to your campsite, we will also offer plenty of food and drink options both in the campgrounds and the festival. The Farmers Market in the campgrounds will include mobile vendors that are breakfast focused, along with various Florida-native offerings. Vendors and Elevated Food Experiences inside the festival will offer a variety of delicious food and drink options - something for everyone! 

We cater to all dietary needs and have a mix of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. Please note: you may not bring outside food or drink into the festival venue.

Stay hydrated! Fill up your reusable water bottle (get your very own at our merch booth), hydration pack, or any empty beverage container (purchased inside the festival) at our free hydration stations. Look for the water droplet symbol on the map to find the nearest station throughout the festival and campgrounds.

Store your belongings securely and keep your cell phone powered up! Lockers allow you unlimited in-and-out access throughout both days, and each one features a universal cell phone charger.

More info on booking your locker coming soon. 

The General Store is stocked with items you may have forgotten at home—from camping essentials to toiletries to some fun surprises. 

Looking to travel light? Add-on a tent package to your ticket purchase at checkout! You will be able to pick it up at the General Store when you arrive at the festival.

Ticket help and info booths will be stationed throughout the grounds, staffed with our knowledgeable team members ready to help you with whatever you need.

To ensure a safe environment for all, security, police and medical staff will be present throughout the entire event. If you need any assistance, please go to the nearest medical tent, or seek out an event staff member who is equipped with a radio to assist you.

By purchasing a ticket, you agree to submit to a thorough, TSA-style search, including emptying your pockets and bags, having all of your items examined, a full pat-down, and possibly removing your shoes. This includes cars and all ticket types entering the venue at any point. We reserve the right to refuse entry to anyone.

• Okeechobeeings will have access to move between the campgrounds and the festival venue. Please note that OMF reserves the right to search any person or vehicle at any time during the event.

The yin to the festival’s yang, OMF’s wellness offerings help us consciously connect with our bodies, hearts and minds, while also focusing on keeping our bodies healthy and happy. Throughout the weekend, engage in restorative yoga, a 5K and other exercise opportunities, mindful meditation practices, intuitive workshops, and much more. 

It’s easy to get separated at festivals. Know where your friends are, set up meeting points, and stick together—two or three brains are better than one! If you think a new or old friend needs help, ask our friendly staff to assist, and always leave the show with everyone in your crew. OMF is a judgment free zone - everyone’s health and safety is our top priority.

Come prepared for all types of weather, and definitely dress for comfort. Wear lightweight, breathable clothes that make you feel good. If you choose to wear heavy fabrics and faux furs, remember to stay hydrated. Comfortable sneakers are the best way to go, especially if you’re planning to tear up the dancefloor. Sandals and flip-flops can make for sore feet.

Whether you’re a nonstop dancing machine or you like to stroll through the festival and take in all the sights and sounds, hydration is essential to keeping you going all day long. That’s why we provide hydration stations throughout the venue—free of charge! Look for the water droplet symbols on the festival map to find the nearest station, and fill up your reusable water bottle (get your very own at our merch booth!), hydration pack, or any empty beverage container (purchased inside the event).

Throughout the festival grounds, you’ll find teams of friendly medical practitioners ready to care for your every need—free of charge, no questions asked. If you’re lightheaded or nauseated or have too many blisters from dancing the night away, please visit one of our first aid tents. Or feel free to flag down one of the many Health & Safety Team officers roaming throughout the venue. These heroic people stay on their feet for the entirety of every event to keep a watchful, caring eye on you! If you see someone that could be having a medical emergency, please flag one of our staff members down.

If you drink alcohol, be smart about how much you consume. More booze does not equal more fun, and alcohol is not a beverage to cool off or rehydrate with. Regardless, if you plan to drink alcohol or not, make sure you’re always drinking water and hydrating. We enforce a zero-tolerance drug policy at Okeechobee.

If you suspect that someone is suffering from a medical emergency, seek immediate attention at one of the clearly marked medical stations, or find an event staff member. Remember, you will not get in trouble for seeking medical help!

Notify medical or security if a friend is experiencing:

• Vomiting
• Seizures
• Pale skin color or bluish tinge
• Abnormal heart rate and/or breathing (too fast or slow)
• Abnormal body temperature (too hot or cold)
• Delusions, hallucinations or paranoia
• Pupils that don’t react to changes in light
• Confusion, stupor (unresponsive but conscious), coma, or inability to be roused

No one likes taking care of wasted friends. Don’t be that person!

• Drunk people should not be responsible for other drunk people.
• Binge drinking is the most dangerous kind there is. The faster you drink, the higher your BAC (blood alcohol concentration) becomes.
• Strong coffee, a cold shower, sleeping, or “walking it off” will not help someone suffering from alcohol poisoning.
• Always try to keep intoxicated people awake and in an upright/sitting position—not lying down.
