Shambhala Music Festival’s 2024 harm reduction efforts marked a major win for attendee safety. Drug testing conducted by ANKORS confirmed no fentanyl positive samples in the 2024 batch—an impressive turnaround from 2023, when more than two dozen samples tested positive for the dangerous opioid.
This clean slate underscores the festival’s sustained focus on harm reduction, safety, and awareness initiatives. The community continues to champion responsible and discreet drug conversations, reinforcing a culture centered on wellbeing.
