There are still a few days left until the most anticipated festival on the Black Sea Coast, NEVERSEA. The event, which takes place this year between July 6-9, on Neversea Beach in Constanta , is celebrating its fifth anniversary this year. Tens of thousands of fans from home and abroad are expected at the festival, as well as over 150 top artists at national and international level, who will guarantee fun for everyone present. The organizers have prepared the access flow to the festival and recommend going through the information below for the best possible dynamics in terms of entering the festival and performing the check-in and top-up process.
All those who have purchased festival tickets are asked by the organizers to register through the check-in process. Check-in can be done both online and offline (at the location), but the latter will incur a fee of 25 euros/ticket. The organizers point out that only fans registered in the Check-in form (online or at the location) can receive the festival bracelet, based on a subscription or a one-day ticket, with a valid barcode and ID card. Young people under 18 must have with them, in addition to the access ticket and ID card, a parental consent document. This can be downloaded from https://kapitalfestival.com/ , and must be completed before coming to the festival. Minors under 14 must be accompanied by a parent and have a valid ticket.
Preredemption (changing the ticket into a wristband before the festival) and Pre Top-up (after receiving the wristband, the possibility to add money to the top-up points at the location) can be done from Wednesday, July 5, between 15:00 – 22:00, at the Check-in points in the festival. For a faster flow and to avoid queues, the organizers recommend online check-in.
ONE DAY TICKETS TO THE FESTIVAL
Anyone who purchased tickets for Thursday only can pick up their festival wristband on both Wednesday and Thursday. For Friday, Saturday and Sunday, the wristband can only be collected on the day corresponding to the ticket (for example: Friday, July 7, for one-day tickets for Friday), starting at 16:00.
ACCESS TO THE FESTIVAL
Check-in points at the location and access to the festival are located right at the entrance to Modern beach, on Lebedei street (after Tomis Tourist Port). If the festival-goers choose the route from the city center (and not the Port), they must bear in mind that the only stairs open to the public will be those on Mircea cel Bătrân street, next to the Continental Hotel. For those who want to reach the festival by car, the organizers signal several warnings. First of all, the use of alternative routes, as the Fetești bridge is under rehabilitation works, and traffic will be difficult. Secondly, there will be no parking spaces near the festival, and access to the port will be restricted, allowing only riversiders and buses.
THE NEVERSEA FESTIVAL OPENS AT 16.00:XNUMX PM EVERY DAY
Access to the festival will take place on July 6, 7, 8, 9, starting at 16:00 PM. Wristbands can be picked up daily during the festival, until 04:00 AM, and access to the festival is until 05:00 AM. The organizers recommend that those present wear light clothing to cope with the heat, use sunscreen and hydrate properly during the event. Also, check the list of allowed items that they can take with them to the festival, to avoid situations in which they will be thrown away by security agents at the entrance area. Prohibited items include the following: drugs, alcohol, flammable materials, bottles (including perfume or deodorant bottles), baby bottles, umbrellas, cosmetics (sunscreen is allowed), backpacks or purses larger than 29 cm X 21 cm X 12 cm, cans, fireworks, lasers, sprays, knives, weapons, blunt objects, banners supported by sticks, chairs, chains, pyrotechnic items, food or drinks, animals, professional photo or video cameras, including any type of DSLR camera or with detachable lenses, any type of object that can cause injury.

TOP UP & REFUND
The payment system at Neversea is provided with the support of Raiffeisen Bank, the Official Bank of the Festival, and is integrated with the access system, which brings more security and convenience to participants. All those present will be able to pay in the festival only by means of the festival bracelet, so they will not have the possibility to pay cash or card directly at the vendors. The supply of the festival bracelet is done through the top-up process, correlated with everyone's check-in account. The top-up can be done both online (from the online check-in account - recommended by the organizers) or at the location, at the CreditPoint areas of the festival, both with cash and with the card. The online refund option is only available for amounts loaded online, through the online top up process. Each holder can choose what happens with the money left on the festival bracelet: request a refund or donate it to support the social cause through "Public Hospitals from Private Money". The refund/donation request is made from the customer's Check-in account, from where he also did the online top-up. The online refund starts from July 10 at 9:00 AM and will be available until July 14 at 23:59 PM.
All those who made the top-up at the festival will be able to request a refund at the location during the festival from the CreditPoint boxes in the festival and on Monday, July 10, from 8 am to 17 pm, at the ticketing point at the main access gate . More information about security, access, check-in and top-up can be found in the official rules, on the neversea.com website or on the Social Media pages. All those who have concerns and particular situations are urged to use the means of communication such as private messages in social media or the email address ask@neversea.com.
NEVERSEA 2023 – THE SAFEST PUBLIC PLACE ON THE BLACK SEA SHORE
In less than two days the gates of the largest beach festival in Europe, Neversea, open. Being at the anniversary edition, the event will be truly spectacular. More than 150 artists and tens of thousands of fans from the country and abroad are expected on the Neversea beach. In order for the experience to be unforgettable, full of beautiful memories, the organizers of the festival, together with the authorities, took all the safety measures for the participants, so that the event could take place, as before, in the best and safest conditions.
Thousands of gendarmes, police medics and security guards will be at the festival to make sure everything goes safely
As every year, the Neversea festival is for 4 days and 4 nights the safest public place on the shores of the Black Sea, and for this thousands of employees of the Ministry of Administration and Interior (General Directorate of Operational Management of the MAI, the Romanian Gendarmerie, the Romanian Police, the Inspectorate General for Emergency Situations, the National Anti-Drug Agency, the Organized Crime Brigade, UPU Constanța, the Coast Guard) and the Local Police will ensure that all safety measures are respected. Besides, there will be more than 700 private security guards at the festival. Also, the crews from ISU Constanța, UPU Constanța and SMURD Constanța will be prepared to provide the necessary support at advanced medical points and first aid points. ISU DOBROGEA will provide two special vehicles for transporting people and multiple victims at the event; two small crawlers for transporting people, two medical stations established by the ISU and 3 first-aid points plus a firefighting vehicle.
1400 people from 12 countries are building the biggest beach festival in Europe
The production of the Neversea festival is worthy of American films: from the sets and architecture, to the story, fantastic maritime characters, entertainers and dancers, artists and fans from all over the world. On the 5-year anniversary of Neversea there will be 6 music stages and several music spots spread over approximately 110.000 square meters.
The main stage will have over 500 square meters of LED screen, 26 meters high, over 55 meters at the base and a 20 meter performance area opening. A ubiquitous element in the Neversea universe, namely the SUN, was used for the concept of the scene. The equipment needed for the construction of the main stage was transported with over 60 trucks from the country, respectively 14 trucks from Belgium, Holland, Germany and Poland respectively. The installations were carried out with lifting equipment of over 100 tons, respectively with nacelles that can reach up to 40 meters in height. Balkaniad is a new stage, the roof (unusual by the way) will be brought precisely from Germany, from Opera Tents to be able to respond to the needs of all artists. In the case of The Ark stage, for the 5-year anniversary of Neversea we have prepared an interesting production. The 2D decor will be replaced by 180 square meters of LED screens, precisely to highlight all the trap and hip-hop artists who will take the stage. Moreover, we also considered a catwalk so that the artists could bathe the crowd. Daydreaming is the only scene that retains its identity. This has established itself over the years as the only scene through which you can see the sunrise, the only one of its kind in Europe. Installations began on June 15, 21 days before the gates opened. After the completion of the 4 days of the event, the dismantling is estimated to take place in 8 days. The addition of toilet containers will facilitate the access of more than 485 people to the toilet at the same time, an increase of 25% compared to 2021. The infrastructure of water-sewage, internet, electricity adds up to more than 25 km of cables and pipes.
