Prevention

Coloured, flavoured or plain, a condom is a good birth control method and prevents STBBI transmission, including HIV.

If you keep a few condoms on you, you’re more likely to use them. If you keep a few packets of water-based or silicone lube on hand too, you’ll be able to have more enjoyable vaginal or anal sex.

Contraception

With the wide range of methods available, it’s important to pick a contraceptive you’re comfortable with.

If you’re taking the Pill when you’re at a festival, the change of routine can make you forget to take it. Setting an alarm or synchronizing your timing with your friends can help you remember to take it.

Hydration

For a worry-free trip, stay hydrated.

It’s important to stay hydrated during a festival, especially if you’re using drugs and spending time in the sun. Staying hydrated helps prevent heatstroke, bad trips and nausea.

Electrolytes, when mixed with water, help you keep your body hydrated. Have a few packets on hand.

Planning

Plan ahead for how to get home.

When you’re going to a festival, it’s important to plan how you want to get back home — before you start taking drugs.

Choose a designated driver, set aside cab fare, take public transit or figure out another way—these are all strategies to make sure you get home safe.

Communication

Keeping in touch with your friends regularly is both fun and useful.

f you go to a festival with your friends, plan a way to stay in contact with them.

Among other things, creating a group chat is useful for sharing information like meeting spots, the substances you’re taking, and when someone plans to leave.

Prevention

For a good trip, plan ahead.

Keeping a few straws or spatulas for using your drugs is a good prevention strategy. You can get a Sniffkit or free from harm reduction community organizations and sometimes at a festival booth.
