The attendees of forbidden kingdom request that you swap all of the artists scheduled to play on day one at the village stage with all of the artists at the mystic stage. Why? Because the village stage is a small indoor facility on the festival grounds that has limited capacity. This is very upsetting considering there are highly anticipated artists playing here and we all know the facility will fill to capacity very quickly resulting in a lot of upset ravers missing their favorite artists. Another big issue is that there are no bathrooms in the facility resulting in people having to leave thus loosing their spot in the building and having to get back in line which is completely unfair. There are also no free water sources resulting in yet another reason to have to leave and loose your spot. This will result in many ravers becoming dehydrated and risk passing out during sets. The facility only remains cool when it’s under capacity but knowing all the artists preforming the facility will be absolutely packed turning it into a sauna as if you were outside in the Florida heat. A lot of us ravers feel very strongly about this matter. Spending the time and money to come to a festival to see your favorite artists only to find out they’ve been jam packed all on one day at the most inconvenient stage in the venue is very disappointing. We hope this issue can be resolved.
The organizers are ignoring us while choosing to prioritize profit over basic human safety. I am currently drafting a formal demand letter to force their hand because keeping thousands of people in a literal sauna without water is criminal negligence.

The organizers are clearly ignoring our warnings about this dangerous stage choice but the massive surge of support proves we are not going to be silenced. This momentum shows exactly how many people are fed up with being treated like cattle instead of paying fans.

Last year, I wanted to walk out immediately after entering the warehouse stage. I also have sensory issues and smelling and feeling sweat makes me super uncomfortable in an enclosed area

Highly agree with this!!! Last year this happened with artix!! Many folks didn’t get to go inside resulting in missing his set!!! Also the capacity for the indoor venue would cause many to pass out and not do it again! lol

Vulllgur and Infekt deserve main stage as well as majority lasers and production. Riddim fans tend to go the hardest so no water is a problem. Subfiltronik deserves main stage as well.

This is my first forbidden kingdom and I’m going specifically for village stage and the artists preforming at that stage I really hope these stages can get swapped so that I and many other dedicated ravers can enjoy the festival safely
