Tickets
Where can I buy the festival ticket and how much does it cost?
Tickets for this year’s Povaleč can be purchased directly on the Povaleč page or on the GoOut platform. Tickets can be purchased in 4 basic categories in advance. For purchasing a higher-priced ticket, we will reward you with various bonuses and if bought online you will receive a free beer with your ticket!

What does it mean that Povaleč has a recommended entry fee?
Povaleč is characterised by its open and fenceless nature. However, this does not mean that entry is free. The recommended minimum admission fee of 1000 CZK is an adequate amount for a rich three-day programme including the necessary expenses for Povaleč’s existence. Admission fees are the main source of funding for a non-commercial festival like Povaleč, alongside earnings from bar sales. Thanks to your contributions, Povaleč can continue to exist as we all love it!
Are single-day tickets available?
Due to the open nature of the festival grounds and the absence of fences, one-day passes are not available for purchase. However, if you wish to stay for a shorter period and the recommended admission fee seems too high, you can contribute a reduced amount. However, please bear in mind that ticket sales are one of Povaleč’s two main sources of funding.
DO CHILDREN HAVE TO PAY AS WELL?
Yes, but if you would prefer to pay less than the recommended minimum entry fee for your child, please follow the same procedure as for a one-day ticket (see above). Simply contribute whatever you feel is appropriate.
What does it mean that Povaleč is non-commercial?
Povaleč is proud to be a non-profit organisation. This means that it does not have major commercial sponsors, and its organisers work on Povaleč in their spare time. All of the festival’s income (excluding subsidies from government institutions) comes from ticket sales and bar takings.
Why should you buy tickets in the presale?
Like every festival that has survived the uncertainty of the past years, we are tackling daily challenges. Presale income gives us confidence and hope for the current year and beyond. Income from the presale reduces the risk of financial loss and boosts the whole team’s morale! Additionally, anyone who buys a ticket in the presale can order a current Povaleč T-shirt and rest assured that they will find the lost property section at the Povaleč information stand.
Where can I collect the reward for my ticket?
Your tickets come with bonuses, which you will receive alongside your festival wristband at the accreditation office. If you ordered a T-shirt during the presale, you can collect it at any time during the festival from the information stand, located right next to the main entrance.
I didn’t receive an email confirming my ticket purchase. What should I do?
Please contact info@goout.cz with any problems regarding your ticket purchases.
Where can I buy A ticket?
Tickets are available NOW! You can find them on GoOut website. Please do not buy tickets from unverified sources. Every day, alleged ticket resellers appear in the Facebook event, but most of them have profiles only a few weeks old and have never purchased tickets. Ideally, avoid buying tickets from other individuals—only do so if you personally know the seller. Povaleč is not responsible for any damages resulting from ticket purchases made outside our official website or GoOut.
General
How do I get to Valeč?
Due to limited parking capacity, we recommend travelling by bus. We are continuing our cooperation with FlixBus this year, and the bus connections to Valeč have been improved. More information can be found here.
If you would prefer to travel by train, go to the Libkovice station. Trains to this station run through Rakovník. From Libkovice, it is around a 5 km walk. The route goes through Kostrčany and Jeřeň. You can also download a detailed map showing the route from Libkovice to Valeč.
Alternatively, you can drive to Valeč. Please use the Facebook event to find fellow passengers or offer available seats. Due to limited parking capacity, it is important that as few cars as possible come to Valeč.
How and where to park and camp at Povaleč?
There are two parking lots at Povaleč. We charge 500 CZK/car* at the parking lot by the A-stage. Camping next to your car is forbidden here for both safety and capacity reasons. The second option is a parkcamp at C-stage, where it is allowed to camp right next to the car. The price for a spot here is also 500 CZK*. The main tent village is located in the orchard next to the C-stage and there is no charge for camping there.
*Prices include a refundable deposit of 100 CZK for garbage bags, which you will receive upon arrival. The deposit will be refunded if you return the bags with trash before departure either at the bar or in the car park by the accreditation’s office
Can I bring my dog to the festival?
Dogs are not banned from Povaleč, but we do not recommend you bring them either since it is often a rather traumatic experience for them. If you decide to bring your dog to the festival, nevertheless, please clean up after them, and make sure that they do not run around the festival grounds without a muzzle.
Is there an ATM in Valeč?
Unfortunately, there is no ATM in Valeč, but the closest ones are located in Verušičky, Žlutice or Podbořany. For that reason, we recommend that you take a sufficient amount of cash to the festival. A cashless payment option is also available at the festival trough terminals, although this option is not necessarily available at all bars and stands.
What about food and drinks?
There will be a wide selection of coffee and food stands at the festival grounds that will surely satisfy all your refined taste buds and cravings. The festival bars are also excited to serve you and will be offering a variety of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. Although no one will be checking your bags at the entrance, please keep in mind that the income from bars is one of the two main sources of income for Polavec and we would greatly appreciate if you choose to buy drinks at our bars, over bringing your own beers.
All drinks are served in deposit cups with a refundable deposit of 50 CZK. You will receive a special token with your first drink, without which your deposit cannot be refunded! This is to prevent people from stealing cups and making money of it.
