Fusion Festival 2025: Ticket alarm and drug checks for 80,000 fans!

Safety measures and drug information

In cooperation with the Rostock University Medical Center, a mobile laboratory is used to analyze drug samples anonymously and free of charge for visitors.

Those too NDR emphasizes that free drug checks not only provide information about visitors' consumption habits, but also warn against dangerous substances.

Last year a mobile drug check was tested at the festival, resulting in over 300 ecstasy pills having to be tested and three being deemed dangerous. This very welcome measure shows how serious the organizers are about ensuring the safety of guests. The state coordination center for addiction issues (Lakost) is now calling for nationwide drug checks at festivals in order to reach even more people.
