The event „Rock in Vienna“ is supposed be the a memorable event for everyone and for everyone to enjoy and have fun at. Which is why it is essential to take care of one another and draw the line as soon as the freedom of others is limited. Consideration for others, help and moral courage are words that should be taken to heart by everyone. We find it a good idea that everyone is pulling their weight. Safety and integrity are a premiss that will take care of every festival visitor and means that after a successful weekend we all can find our ways home with nice memories and a look forward to the next year.
