Lost Lands Festival: Best Practices for Bringing Alcohol & Avoiding Entry Delays

Is this an actual issue?

Lost Lands Music Festival attendees have sparked a lively discussion on Reddit’s r/LostLandsMusicFest about how pre-packing alcohol inside coolers affects entry time and security checks.

The consensus? While not a deal-breaker, hiding alcohol inside coolers – especially packed in ice – noticeably slows down the security process. Staff have to dig through ice, prolonging the search for alcohol, which can irritate both attendees and security.

Key takeaways and tips from festival-goers include:

  • Keep alcohol outside the cooler: This speeds up security checks and smooths your entry experience.
  • Avoid glass containers: Only plastic bottles or approved packaging are allowed inside the venue.
  • Don’t look suspicious: Trying to hide alcohol intensifies inspections and slows things down.
  • Creative hacks: One savvy festival fan recommended transferring vodka into a plastic water jug as a stealthy workaround.

The official Lost Lands policy echoes these tips, advising attendees against pre-packing alcohol inside coolers before arrival in order to streamline entry and reduce delays.

In short, if you want a hassle-free entry, keep your booze separate from the ice chillers and always choose plastic containers. It’s a simple move that keeps the good vibes flowing from the gate to the main stage.
