The Festival operates a lost and found at the Information Booth near the Main Gate in the concert area. Found items should be taken to the Information Booth. In the campground, take items to Camping Headquarters.
To avoid problems caused by losing items such as car keys, rain gear, hats, and other things, the Festival recommends that you secure keys in a pocket, backpack, or fanny pack; and that you look around carefully before leaving any area where you have been sitting or dancing. Carry a flashlight in the evening to check your seating area.

Lost Children: Children who appear to be alone or without adult supervision at the Festival will be taken to the Information Booth and announcements seeking parents will be made from the stages.
Lost adults: The Festival recommends that groups arrange specific meeting spots and times during the day and evening. Remember, there is minimal lighting at the Festival during the evening.
