Deichbrand Festival takes place from 16 to 19 July in northern Germany, with around 60,000 visitors.
The event is entirely cashless: visitors can only pay using the chip built into their wristband. New additions include the Electronic Selection programme strand, the New Port stage and the Hideaway rest area.
Using the help code "Wo geht's nach Panama?", a visitor can discreetly signal to staff that they feel uncomfortable, are in danger, or need assistance.
