WHAT TO BRING TO NOZSTOCK – 2023’s essential packing list

With the sun slowly settling a little later in the day, our minds begin to blissfully wander towards the future and the exciting summer of frolicking on the horizon. As we begin setting the stage for a spectacular dive deep below the ocean, now’s a great time to start prepping everything you’ll need for the sub-nautical future.

For your arrival on the farm to be every bit as perfect as it can be, it’s vital you make sure you have everything you need for a safe, well-hydrated and dazzling twirl through the farm. This isn’t our first journey to untold lands and using our years of experience, we’ve put together a list of essential supplies so you can have a guaranteed great time.
