    Do I need to wear a mask if I am unvaccinated? Will we have some available on site?
    Masks are encouraged but not required for all guests. Masks will be available for free from the info booth.

    Can I bring a small hand sanitizer to the festival? Will there be some handed out?
    Yes you may bring personal sized hand sanitizer into the festival. There will be multiple free hand sanitizer dispensers available throughout the festival.

    Will you have testing available on the festival grounds?
    If you arrive to Electric Zoo without proof of vaccination or without proof of a negative test we will have on-site testing available starting at $99+ per test.

    If I am unvaccinated, attending all three days but took my test on Wednesday, will I need a new one for Sunday? Yes. You must have a valid test result taken within 72 hours of each day you plan to attend the festival.

    To attend all three days of Electric Zoo with just one test you must take your test on Thursday or Friday. Otherwise you will be required to receive an additional test later in the weekend to attend Electric Zoo.

    In addition to requiring proof of a vaccination, or a negative Covid-19 Test. Electric Zoo has gone to great lengths to protect our fans. We have instituted the following policies and procedures to help make a safe experience:

  • Extended Festival Footprint to allow for increased space throughout the festival site
  • We have implemented enhanced cleaning and disinfecting procedures intended to reduce the risk of transmission of COVID-19.
  • 100% Cashless festival to reduce paper-to-paper contact / hand-to-hand contact.
  • Addition of numerous free hand sanitizer stations throughout the festival
  • All staff members are also obligated to be either vaccinated or show proof of a negative Covid-19 test
