[worthy sentinel]

Hello, can someone tell me the prices for renting PCs on site?

[bitter fossil]

That is not something that DreamHack offers. You can reach out to Gameffect or other third party companies though

[merry karma]

Do you know one close to the LAN ?

[valid pasture]

It's not a common commodity really, and there aren't many computer stores in Stockholm to begin with. If Gameffect isn't an option (which normally is the best option), I think your options are very limited. I thought there was a store offering a PC on a monthly lease basis, but I can't seem to find where I read it.

[vapid rover]

Gameeffect will have a booth on dreamhack, so they will be the closest and easiest one atleast (dont know if they still have computers etc left) but id reach out to them since they will be on site.

[valid pasture]

I'd reach out to them before for sure, since they have been very busy lately

[hard mica]

@merry karma hope your not going to DH to bring home alot of money. 8500 for 5 tickets doesn't leave much left for hotel and flight

[merry karma]

No ahah We know that no worries , we would like to do One DreamHack in our life and if we could win the tournament could be awesome

[merry karma]

I cant see price on their website unfortunately

[valid pasture]

They don't announce the prices on the website, but they'll tell you by email. If I remember correctly, these are the prices they start from (they do offer bundle prices)

Base PC: 1500 SEK
Monitor: 1000 SEK
Chair: 1000 SEK

They also offer more powerful models which obviously cost more

That could give you an idea at least

[merry karma]

Is that 1500 sek for all the event ? Or By Day

[tulip olive]

Probably for the full event 🙂 Ask them

[merry karma]

I send them mail im waiting for the answer

[valid pasture]

Whole event. Contract is for friday to sunday midnight

[oblique pine]

Hi there, what's the minimum age to attend the festival? Could not find this info at the FAQ web page. Thanks!

[valid pasture]

I think anyone below 13 might need an attending parent, I could be wrong though

[tulip olive]

Something like that yeah. And well if youre under 13 youre not allowed on Discord either

[oblique pine]

does it need to be the parent, or can it be their cool uncle?

[valid pasture]

Any adult I guess

I'd assume it's like going to the cinema, where you can bring a child under a certain age limit, as long he/she is accompanied by an adult

[tulip olive]

Yeah we wont check if people are their actual parents 🙂 An adult is enough

Note that some tournaments have a strict 13 requirement. Such as all FN tournaments

[vapid rover]

Even if xenon wont check if its actual parets, dont kidnap any youths cuz u are afraid you are to old for dh, we are lots of old boys/Girls that attend so no reason the ashame for that, its worse if u kidnap a random youth if say🤣😇

Hope both the cool uncle and the kidz will enjoy DH 🤩 we had planned my nephew would follow me to dh summer... sonce its hard during winter cuz of school... but now i dont know what will happen.

[oblique pine]

Oh yeah, all of them are hyped to attend!

[vital bluff]

is it allowed to buy second hand tickets?

[civic hound]

Ticket resales are allowed, but not in this server.

[vital bluff]

so if you buy tickets second hand then how do you choose seats?

[civic hound]

They should be able to transfer the tickets over to you

[vital bluff]

but to choose the seats i have to know the email that was used to purchase and i have no way of getting that

[vapid rover]

When u buyba ticket from someone else, they can transfer the ticket to your acc, after that you can claim a ticket. Be awere there is scammers out there trying to scam people and pretend you can buy tickets from them. But they will only take your money. If this happens dreamhack cant help you out sonce they recomend buying tickets only from there site to be sure evrything is right. 🙂

[vital bluff]

the tickets were bought from a website called ticketswap and all they send you is the tickets with the qr code and order id that you show upon entry so how do i move that ticket over to my account?

[dense cloud]

You are able to manually add to an account.

Sign in to the dreamhack app on your device or on this site:
https://dreamhack.com/tickets/DHSTHLM24/manage

While signed in press " view tickets" and then "add missing tickets" The PDF file should have all info required. If not. Contact [e-mail] and they are able to help you.

Worst case if they are not able to respond before the event. You can visit the ticket support at the venue and they have the tools to help you select a seat with your ticket information.

However, that is under the assumption you weren't scammed on the ticket you purchased and they already checked in with that ticket.

[vital bluff]

i know but when you press add missing tickets it asks you for the email used to buy the tickets which i obviously dont have

[dense cloud]

Then reach out to support and then they will assist you 🙂

[rustic scroll]

What kind of tickets did you buy? LAN seats? Support might not be able to help if you bought lan seats and don't have the email as there's no way for us to guarantee it's a legit ticket. If it's a lan ticket i'd reach out to ticket swap and see if they can help get you in contact with the original buyer

[vital bluff]

yes it was a lan ticket

but can you not check the reference number to confirm its a real ticket?

[hybrid bolt]

Let me DM you.

[fickle spire]

Are you allowed to bring a bag to the LAN area with keyboard, mouse etc...?

[tulip olive]

If you have a LAN ticket you can have a bag yes

[tardy sigil]

Hi, I found that ppl without LAN tickets cannot enter the LAN Zone? So, is there anyway to spectate the game?

[rustic scroll]

It depends for some of the bigger tournaments like TFT you will be able to spectate through costreamers but for most tournaments there is no way to spectate unfortunately

[merry karma]

Do we need order protection when we buy LAN ticket ?

[tulip olive]

Protection?

[merry karma]

I mean it was asking me to buy a " Ticket Protection "

if there is covid and stuff

but it was not mandatory

How can we choose the seat ? Because i bought the 5 tickets

buy i could not choose seat

[fickle spire]

It will be in your mail

[tulip olive]

https://dreamhack.com/tickets

Thats where you pick the seat later

[merry karma]

How can i pick it

I'm on it but idk how to do it

[fickle spire]

check your mail bro

[tulip olive]

There will be a mail that helps you link your purchase to the ticket site

[merry karma]

i did but

i mean

Wait i try to check more

brb in few minutes if i still dont find xd

Could someone help me to do it pls

i got the mail but i dont know how to select the seat

sorry i'm really stupid

[fickle spire]

open the map and select the seats you want

[merry karma]

Done !

Thanks alot

❤️

[hard mica]

@merry karma just remember to pick a seat for every ticket.

[merry karma]

yes i did it nw

ty alot

❤️

we had 5 seats all next to each other

so super col

cool

[fickle spire]

you got the regular seats or 20+?

[worthy sentinel]

20+ lan ticket we take

[fickle spire]

Which row you guys got?

[bitter fossil]

Maybe move this conversation to #stockholm-general since this is not support related ^^

[tiny raven]

Hii I want to know what’s the mean about “behind the scenes tour ”🧐that’s mean we can meet the owcs players behind the scenes?(I got diamond seating)

[hybrid bolt]

It means you'll get the curtain pulled away and you'll be able to go backstage and see production, how stuff is run, see things back there. No promises to players and talent iirc, but you'll see the special areas!

[rare shale]

If I am not being too much of a bother....I also got the diamond packaging and I've been trying to get an answer to what the meet and greet includes for the last couple of days, but my question seems to be getting lost in the sausce everytime (I don't blame anyone). Which meet and greet is included? And is there a list of what meet and greets are possible at the event in general?

[hybrid bolt]

Let me grab the info tomorrow for you

[tiny raven]

yessss plzzzz 🥹

[rare shale]

That would be very appreciated! Thank you

[worthy sentinel]

Hi got question did u know the format of valorant toornament ? i see on website we play saturday 5pm to midnight

[rustic scroll]

Not sure but usually it’s single or double elimination

[tiny raven]

and I want to know that every players will join in the fan meeting or not 🥹

[white gorge]

hi guys i have some questions for ftn tournament i from france do u know how i can take my pc in my flight?

and for the screen i need to take one or u give one?

[rustic scroll]

We don’t provide anything except for a table and chair

[valid pasture]

Table, chair, free port in the network switch and one power outlet. Which means bring setup + 15m ethernet cable + extension cord, or whatever they are called in english 😄

[vapid rover]

U can also maybe rent a computer or screen etc. if they still have any availible. Then reaxh out to [e-mail]

😀

[valid pasture]

Yep, they offer everything you need, granted they still have the stuff available

[white gorge]

okay thanks you

[tough bone]

Hello I was wondering if there is any update as to when my photo will be added to the guests on the website please? Thank you for your time

[white gorge]

someone know the composition of the pc to rent?

[white gorge]

did i need to choose my place when i take my ticket ?

[valid pasture]

You mean what components they have? Check gameffect.se

[white gorge]

but they have 5 pc

[safe kiln]

when it comes to leaving your pc and peripherals over night at your seat, how safe is it? Or is there a way to make it more safe so nothing gets stolen

[valid pasture]

I think they offer them all. I rented the smaller one with an RTX 4070 this summer, which they called ”Cooler master”

Base model is 1500 SEK, but you could contact them

But I think they offer all 5 models to different prices

[valid pasture]

Don't leave things that are loose, like wireless stuff. I also used a pad lock to bundle up my cables

You can never be too sure about things getting stolen or not, but making it hard to steal is a good deterrent

[valid pasture]

You can choose your seat in the Dreamhack app by managing your ticket. If you rent anything, they will ask which seat you have chosen

[merry karma]

Hey , does someone has the exact adress of the dreamhack ?

It's Stockholmassan still ?

I just wanna be sure to don't miss it

[hard mica]

Mässvägen 1, 125 30 Älvsjö

[lethal imp]

Is there a place where you can rent/borrow stuff for sleeping at the hall?

[valid pasture]

There is no sleeping hall at this venue

Or do you mean sleeping at the desk?

[rare shale]

The amount of people thinking there is still a sleeping hall is eh

alarming?

[valid pasture]

Many of the questions recently feel a little bit alarming. Do they buy tickets without reading what they buy?

[rare shale]

Yeah honestly I already see teens coming to the LAN without a place to sleep

like

[valid pasture]

Yeah or partial setups, or even no setups

[upbeat bramble]

Well there's a difference between missing that there's no sleeping hall (a new change for this event) and not bringing their own setup (which has always been the case)

[valid pasture]

Agreed. Let's hope we enlighten enough lost souls to not see too many of them 😄

[lethal imp]

last year there was a sleeping hall

[lethal imp]

the guy i'm going with is gonna sleep in the hall he said

[civic hound]

Last year it was not held in Stockholm. New venue, new rules.

There is no sleeping hall.

[rare shale]

@hybrid bolt did you manage to get a hold of the meet and greet info for the diamond package + the meet and greet info in general for day visitors?

[inland aspen]

do you know if it's possible to play with a stretched resolution on the lan

[bitter fossil]

What do you mean?

[valid pasture]

What do you mean exactly?

[inland aspen]

at the dreamhack in sweden can we play with a stretched resolution on fortnite?

[valid pasture]

I'm not sure exactly what that inclines, but since you're playing with your own setup, I don't see why not? Or is there a specific reason you're asking? You make it seem like it's normally not allowed 😄

Oh Stretched Resolution is like an advantage thing

[inland aspen]

*no I'm asking because there are lan where it's forbidden but it must have just been for the world cup.

[vapid rover]

Id say u should ask in fortnite discord, might be some rules about it:

Get more Fortnite information
DreamHack no longer operates Fortnite tournaments, they are now operated by ESL (DreamHack and ESL are part of the EFG group), and have moved online.

[valid pasture]

I'm assuming there's a rule list on the Fortnite discord

[bitter fossil]

There are also a document with rules for the tournament on the website

[inland aspen]

can you send me the link to the del a lan regulations please I can't find it

[valid pasture]

You mean for the Fortnite Tournament, or the LAN in general?

fortnite

[vapid rover]

@inland aspen

[inland aspen]

thx brother

[round creek]

hey, sorry to bother, but did you get a response about this?

[lethal imp]

ye why not?

[inland aspen]

ok

[lethal imp]

Map in the app doesn't work btw

[valid pasture]

The seat map?

[lethal imp]

Ye and just the map of the venue

[valid pasture]

I don't think the venue map is finished yet

[lethal imp]

I could select yesterday

[valid pasture]

But the seat map does look a little bit weird. I don't see the squares

Oh now I do, but it keeps reloading / crashing hehe

Do you have the ios app as well, or android?

[lethal imp]

Android

[valid pasture]

It's web based anyway, but the app itself could be wonky. Or it's the website

[lethal imp]

I can't even find the correct esl website like I could yesterday

If I log in on the esl website I get so many options to choose but nothing hints to the map like idk

[valid pasture]

Dreamhack map would be on the Dreamhack website. Not sure how correlated the ESL website is with Dreamhack in that sense

[tulip olive]

https://dreamhack.com/tickets/DHSTHLM24/manage

Try that

In app map is just a venue map which isnt released iirc

[inland aspen]

which ticket do I need to take to accompany fortnite players in the lan

Do I have to choose the lan fortnite seats after buying the ticket?

[vapid rover]

You mean what ticket u need to join the fortnite tournament? Any LAN ticket will make this, does not mather what seat on the BYOC u have 🙂

[valid pasture]

Any access to LAN area requires LAN. Note that there are technically 3 areas

Regular, Ultimate, 20+ and Ultimate 20+

If I recall correctly, both 20+ areas are one the same area, where regular and ultimate are split

I could be wrong though

And yeah, there are no game specific seats

[inland aspen]

how do we get next to our teamate?

[valid pasture]

You get to choose a seat. You can choose the seat next to your teammate, if those seats are available

You also need to have the same kind of ticket

If your mate has a regular, you need a regular ticket too

Same with ultimate etc

[bitter fossil]

Buy the same ticket as your teammate has

And then you can pick seats next to each other

[inland aspen]

do you choose the seats on site or online?

[bitter fossil]

Online

[inland aspen]

where

[bitter fossil]

After buying the ticket(s), you get an email to connect your ticket and from there you can pick seats

[inland aspen]

okay thx*

[bitter fossil]

If you do not pick seats yourself, you will be assigned one right before the event and that might not be next to your friends

[inland aspen]

And what ticket do our friends and family have to buy to come with us?

[bitter fossil]

If they want to get into the LAN area, they would need the same LAN tickets as you. But if you want to meet them outside the LAN area, they'd only need a festival ticket

either a Friday/Saturday/Sunday ticket or 3-day

[inland aspen]

for my coach

for my coach, how do we go about it?

[valid pasture]

Anyone who want access to the LAN area need a LAN ticket

[bitter fossil]

They need the same ticket as you.

[inland aspen]

even if people don't play?

[bitter fossil]

There are no special tickets for coaches

[valid pasture]

Yes

[inland aspen]

My father bought a visitor's ticket at SEK 2,300. Can he get a refund?

[tulip olive]

There are no showers nor sleeping halls at the event

[viral fog]

Hey, I got free tickets through last dreamhack event but i want to buy seating for owcs finals. Currently only way to buy the seating at least to my knowledge seems be with a ticket. How can i get the seating bought?

[vapid rover]

After u have a ticket on your tixtr, you can buy the add-on afterwards. if the free ticket isnt through the site and instead like just a paper or smth, then id guess you need to email the Support. 😀 @viral fog

[tepid prawn]

hey im still having an issue with buying an OWCS add-on to my 3 day group ticket

Will there be more tickets released for one day stockholm saturday by any chance?

[worthy sentinel]

Yo I have a question a coach wants to come which tickets he should take to have access to the LAN space

[civic hound]

Only people with LAN tickets are allowed in the LAN area

[valid pasture]

The coach should have the same kind of ticket as you do as well. So if you have ultimate, so should the coach. Or he/she won't be able to be where you are

[wild island]

Can I upgrade tickets after I buy them? I have two three-day ultimate passes and I want to add preferred seating.

One OWCS 3day seating and the other OWCS platinum 3day seating.

How do I do it?

[civic hound]

https://www.tixr.com/groups/dreamhacksweden/events/dreamhack-stockholm-2024-99758?plt=e9418279-7587-4b86-94b4-2a5ed145317c

You should be able to get the add on via this link.

[wild island]

Can we still seat together if one of us has OWCS and the other has the OWCS platinum

[crystal badge]

After getting the OWCS seating add ons, it says in the app they don’t have reserved seating, are seats available to reserve yet?

[lusty fjord]

I think you cant reserve seats before

[tulip olive]

Quite sure its not reserved seating for anything but lan seats.

[clever tiger]

Hi, I'm having an issue with the app where I can't login, it takes me to a browser where I can login but then it doesn't take me back to the app and manually returning shows I'm still logged out

Asking because there's some settings that I can't seem to change on the desktop/mobile web

[stiff glacier]

Have you tried reinstall the app?

[clever tiger]

Yes, it didn't work. For some reason though, I had to back out of the page it took me to after logging in, then it redirected back to the app logged in

So thankfully that's solved

[stiff glacier]

Thats good at least 😁👍

[indigo mauve]

Are you allowed to bring a water bottle and food to the venue?

[merry karma]

Why do the rent PC ask me for Security social number , does they did that to you aswell ?

[vapid rover]

Most likely cuz they will make a renting agreement, and to be able to have enough info they take social number in case there is something that is not followed by theire rules. 🙂 Add social number in agreements is pretty comon.

[merry karma]

Okok i was scared about a scam or something

[vapid rover]

But in this particular case, i have no clue. @valid pasture i know rented from them last year 🙂

as long u have used the official email to gameffect, it should be al good. 🙂 but maybe wait until someone more can confirm this 🙂

[merry karma]

okok , i send message on them to Instagram and they redirect me to "filipa" email

Fillipa@gameffect something like this

[bitter fossil]

The official email is [e-mail]

[merry karma]

okok ty

[tulip olive]

SSN in sweden is extremely normal to ask for and is public information

Or well PSN, SSN is the american thingy thats both unsafe and bad to give to anyone 😛

[next pumice]

If you don’t have a Swedish “personal number” there’s no real point in stating it for the rental, since they can’t use a foreign number to check your financial credentials

[valid pasture]

Gameffect writes a leasing contract, I'm not sure how it works outside of Sweden but it's very normal to ask for it when it comes to contracts.

It has something to do with you as an accountable person. If you had a company, you'd be ask for the organization number instead. At least, that's how I assume it would have worked out

[valid pasture]

She's one of the persons handling the communication, I think she's some kind of manager. She's legit, I've been in contact with her both time I've rented from Gameffect 🙂

[indigo mauve]

?

[tulip olive]

With LAN ticket yes

[indigo mauve]

Oh cool dehydration for me nice

[next pumice]

There will be places to buy drinks at inside, I’m sure

[indigo mauve]

Clear water bottles not allowed either with non-LAN ticket?

[exotic oriole]

where does it say this on the site??

how do we know what we can and cant bring?

[rare shale]

Huh? Can you not bring a water bottle holding it in your hand Xenon?

[indigo mauve]

@tulip olive Sorry you have to deal with this but like we need to know what we can bring and what not

[tulip olive]

For day visitors i dont know yet 🙂 still waiting for some more info to be posted

(I cant answer faster because youre pinging me btw;))

[exotic oriole]

(we dont know if youve seen thats why)

[bitter fossil]

We check when we have time time, whether or not we have been pinged :)

[valid pasture]

Not going to speculate too much, but I'm pretty sure bringing a water bottle should be fine. In worst case scenario, there will likely be a kiosk inside that offer both snacks, food and drinks

And it's safe to drink tap water

[indigo mauve]

The reason I am asking about water bottle specifically is because I know that for Dreamhack Dallas earlier this year, water bottles were at least in some cases not allowed

[valid pasture]

The bag ban in this case though is a local thing though, not a policy setup by Dreamhack itself

I can't find anything specifically about water bottles in the FAQ that the Swedish Police have on their website

Some forums suggests that bringing a bottle is not allowed though

Some say it's fine. So I guess you'll have to wait for the official statement

[tulip olive]

Let's wait for official info 🙂

[civic hound]

This is not a true statement either. Water bottles at Dallas were allowed as long as there was no liquid in them.

Regardless, different venues and different festivals have different rules.

[stiff glacier]

Can confirm that there are indeed at least a Pressbyrån onsite👍

[next pumice]

There is indeed a Pressbyrån, as well as cafés and restaurants that should be open. There are also recently installed drinking fountains. Aren't there also a few food/drink vendors?

[molten gazelle]

When it comes to the OWCS addons, if they are available still can they be purchased during the event? as in if i arrive on friday and realise i want to buy them, is that possible?

[rustic scroll]

Don’t think it should be an issue, but no guarantees that they’re not sold out by then

[molten gazelle]

ok, thank you!

[hybrid bolt]

They are looking to sell out fairly soon I'd say

[lusty fjord]

I am a first timer and I dont really understand the add-on, it says guaranteed seat, does it mean you can leave your seat between the matches or no?

I have the add-on for Sunday

Does people with add-on go first since we have payed money for a seat?

[hybrid bolt]

So it does mean you can leave, and still have a seat - yep! Free seating anyone in the festival can sit, but guaranteed means you'll always have a seat

[lusty fjord]

Thank you so much for the answers. You guys as staff and mods are doing an amazing job!

[tulip olive]

We do what we can with the information we have^^

[lusty fjord]

of course

[formal ginkgo]

I've purchased my seating add on and wanted to ask if there's anything else I need to do? or if it will be linked with my festival pass

[hybrid bolt]

If its for OWCS, you dont need to do anything!

Just show up

[lusty fjord]

you need an app for the tickets right?

[hybrid bolt]

Nope, no need tbh. You just need the QR code

But app keeps everything in one place

[lusty fjord]

got it on paper

is that okay?

[hybrid bolt]

Yepyep, paper or email or whatever

As you'll scan that QR code then be given a badge/wristband as your credentials for the weekend

[lusty fjord]

is that only for 3 days ticket or is it also for 1 day ticket?

[hybrid bolt]

All ticket types

[lusty fjord]

I see

[formal ginkgo]

ahh okay thank you very much.

[mighty berry]

Hej question! I’m about to purchase the owcs platinum but had a question, I hope this is the right place to ask. For the hoodie - when/where do you pick it up? Do you reserve a size? I’ve never been to dreamhack before just wanna make sure I’ll be able to get my size because I may miss the first day because it’s a heftyy journey

[hybrid bolt]

You can pick it up on-site! Should be enough sizes from what I'm told

[mighty berry]

Any day/time during the day access?

[hybrid bolt]

Should be fine, yep! As long as its within registration hours to pick up the ticket

[rapid olive]

Hey! Is there somewhere i can get an overview of the schedule for the BOYC CS2 event?

[rustic scroll]

Not really, it will be played asap start to finish so it totally depends on how many teams

[rapid olive]

Everything on the saturday?

[mighty berry]

Thank you

[rustic scroll]

If there's not a crazy amount of teams it will all be on saturday yes

[rapid olive]

Will any of the games be on the stage or is it all played from their computer stations?

[rustic scroll]

No stage this time, only their PCs

[worthy sentinel]

Hi for be sure DH give switch ethernet for team ?

[valid pasture]

Every seat has access to one ethernet port on the switch. Remember that you need to bring your own ethernet cable. 15 metres are recommended

[worthy sentinel]

Do you know where the switches are located on table?

[dusky pivot]

are you able to leave the venue and reenter it on the same day?

[bitter fossil]

They are evenly spaced out on the rows. The nearest one to you should be no more than 15 meters away from you, which is why we recommend a 15m ethernet cable.

[bitter fossil]

Yes! You will get a wristband the first time you enter, and you'll just show the wristband when you want to enter the venue again after leaving

[dusky pivot]

awesome thanks!

[worthy sentinel]

i got 10meters only ...

[worthy sentinel]

Me and my mates are at the end of the table in 20+ like 4 / 6 / 8 /10 /12

[valid pasture]

10 meters can be enough, but it may as well not be. I sat at the end of a row last time, and I had plenty of cable left with my 15 meter cable

[bitter fossil]

The ends of tables are often furthest away from the switches. You could still be fine though

[valid pasture]

I think Elgiganten will sell cables at the expo like last time, but I wouldn't put all my faith into it 😁

I mean, as worst case scenario

Hence the recommendation

[worthy sentinel]

I see did u know how many ports the switch got ?

[bitter fossil]

enough for everyone to get one

[worthy sentinel]

i know , its like for see how the switches can be placed

like if they got 30ports they gonna place it in middle

[valid pasture]

I'd say it's something like that. XenoN knows more though

First time they host Dreamhack at this venue though, the setups might differ

[tulip olive]

Quite sure we've planned for 2-3 switches per table 🙂

Bring 15m to be safe

[lethal imp]

can anyone help out @distant kraken he can't choose a seat and his esl account is just fully bugged

since he needs to fill the form

He wants to take 24:22 with regular ticket

but he can't

[valid pasture]

What form exactly? He need to sign in and manage the ticket to select the seat, don't think there is any other way

[upbeat bramble]

probably the fortnite one, you need to fill in what seat you have when signing up

[valid pasture]

Oh right

Or maybe for renting equipment

Pretty sure Fecy asked about that the other day

[valid pasture]

In what way is his account bugged? He can't see his ticket?

[tulip olive]

What happens if they visit https://dreamhack.com/tickets
@lethal imp @distant kraken

[lethal imp]

it says he has no ticket on his esl account so he basically can't do anything

[lethal imp]

.

I'm wondering cause what if his seat will be taken for example????

He can't get his ticket in the dreamhack app for example too

[valid pasture]

He has to connect / add the ticket to his ESL account

[tulip olive]

Then he has to add the ticket to his account. Usually done by the email sent to them after buying the ticket

If you didnt get the email, contact [e-mail]

[lethal imp]

He did e-mail and has an esl account

but can't connect his ticket or get out of account info

It's just so weird idk how to explain it

It went really easy for me and then he has all of this weird stuff that we both can't think of a solution

[tulip olive]

The only solution is to contact support if he didnt get the email 🙂

Noone on discord can help with ticketing issues

[static wigeon]

The schedule of Qualifier 2 coincides with the trio Cash Cup, will the schedule be changed or will it be done regardless of the trio cash cup?

[rustic scroll]

You talking about fortnite or?

Schedules for the festival won't be changed due to outside tournaments

[tiny raven]

I want to know if the folder can be brought into the venue? Because I want to make a support board for the owcs team.

[rustic scroll]

You mean like cardboard or paper sign? That should be fine

[tiny raven]

Yes, but I want to put them in a folder, like this.

[rustic scroll]

Probably not unfortunately, I think security would count that as a "bag" which is not allowed

[tiny raven]

OK thx

[vapid rover]

MYbe u can put it through a laminate machine? Then it justa a papper that is coverd by plastic, should not be classed as a bag if its laminated. 😀

Well, it wont make it easier to have with u. But will sustain more damage etc that way atleast 😅

[tiny raven]

It doesn't seem to work...😭 Because I still need to use this folder to load my homework, but thank you!

[gentle osprey]

Hello, is there some template for parental permission?

[rare shale]

So is there any information about 1) the meet and greets at Dreamhack 2) the meet and greet for the diamond add on for OWCS?

Last week Thursday someone would grab the information for me, but I haven't heard anything since. Even if there is no information about either of these two questions 10 days before the event, that is also an answer if that's the case 😅

I don't want to be rude or disrespectful or impatient because everyone is busy but my questions going unanswered doesn't feel very nice.

I wouldn't usually post it like this, but this is maybe the 4th or 5th time asking 😓

[vapid rover]

Rainingtea posted this 10 november (sunday) :

So meet and greet for OWCS etc I'm still waiting for info on. It'll be it's own tab in the schedule
And expo timing updates, its:
Friday, November 22, 10:00 - 20:00
Saturday, November 23, 10:00 - 20:00
Sunday, November 24, 10:00 - 18:00

Still doesnt respond your hole question, ill know 😅

[rare shale]

No but at least it is a start. I did not catch that, I suppose I thought I would be tagged when answered 😅 I will keep an closer eye on messages here, thanks for repeating it Woiot 🙂

[tiny raven]

I still wait it too…this diamond seat is really expensive,I wish I could get more exact details about fan meeting and behind the scenes

[alpine sierra]

Just wondering if stockholm is bigger than jonkoping (size of building)

[vapid rover]

Yes,, the hole avenue is much bigger, with that said, we dont know how much will be used during this event, so hard to say if it gonna feel bigger or not. 🙂 but my expectation is that it gonna be huuuge 😇😍🤩

[alpine sierra]

Super!

[vapid rover]

Elmia has a total of 34 000 m2
Stoholmsmässan has total of 70 000 m2

How much gonna be used, isnt said yet.

[rare shale]

That would be ideal yes.

[alpine sierra]

Wow!

[thin birch]

Can you fix so that the cs2 tournament is on hltv? At least the final?

[silver kettle]

specific creator/channel meetups are now listed on the website. Booths from companies on the expo floor will often have meet-and-greet information for them posted on their booth at the event (maybe sooner). Meet-and-greets for specific games or groups, like international people or women, I haven't heard yet but I have only attended the American Dreamhacks. Woiot had a nice posting above too 🙂

[vapid rover]

Ah, i searched around a bit and also found what u talking about now... @rare shale and @tiny raven atleast some u cna find here now: https://dreamhack.com/stockholm/creator-hub/
Might be some additionals maybe, but atlest some is here i guess?

[tiny raven]

In fact, I have read all the information on this website (thank you very much). I just want to know the specific time of the fan meeting and whether I can meet each player so that I can arrange the time... Because the venue is not allowed to bring bags, I have very limited things.

[modest pawn]

If I buy a LAN ticket and arrive at dreamhack at 23:00 on the friday. Can i get in or do i need to wait for the next day until it opens???

[vapid rover]

If u have a lan ticket, you should be able to get in 24/7 🙂

[rustic scroll]

Not this time unfortunately as it’s a smaller tournament then usual

[rustic scroll]

Ye the lan is open 24/7

[rustic scroll]

@hybrid bolt

[gentle osprey]

Hello, is there some template for parental permission? Thanks

[rustic scroll]

Not really no

[rare shale]

Thank you @rustic scroll

[stiff glacier]

Alot of it is going to get used as of my understanding

[next pumice]

What kind of permission do you mean?

[hybrid bolt]

Hey - A newer update:

• OWCS and regular meet'n'greet will have a tab this week
• Expect some last minute ones added as some are depending on which teams progress etc
• Might even be 1-2 non-team based M&G's too from what I know 👀

[gentle osprey]

well since im 17, I need a parental permission to go to dreamhack

[formal ginkgo]

yay thanks

[rare shale]

Oooh I will keep an eye out for the tab! The last minute ones make sense, though I wasn't sure we would get to meet players or not. That's exciting

*And now you're making me curious for the possible non team based M&G's *

Thanks for the update, I really appreciate it

[rustic scroll]

You don't need a paper etc, it's fine. It's more if something happens and we need to check with your parents will they say yes then it's not an issue

[tiny raven]

thank you soooooooo much!

[next pumice]

I can’t find anything about that. It just says “open for all ages, but may contain content not suitable for all ages”. DH also has to cover certain logos in accordance with Swedish law on gambling

[gentle osprey]

oh ok, they obviously know it and I have contact info, I thought I need some kind of paper, thank you!

[rustic scroll]

Dh doesn't have any gambling partners, ESL might but that's not the same brand

[gentle osprey]

this is in the rules: "DreamHack has no minimum age requirement, though participants under the age of 18 should have their parent’s permission to attend DreamHack. Parents and/or guardians must be aware of the DreamHack rules. Visitors under the age of 13 must have parental supervision at all times."

[next pumice]

Man, those rules are hard to read for me I keep missing vital info, sorry

[gentle osprey]

no worries, I just read them today :D

just in case

[next pumice]

If DH hasn’t provided a form, maybe you can write their support team about it? Or else, I don’t know, ask your parents to write a note?

[elfin leaf]

How to check lan tournament info? I want to know about ARAM 1v1 rules.

[next pumice]

Oh, I saw you got a response already. Ignore me

[gentle osprey]

np, thank you for helping

[next pumice]

I attended a concert in the summer (American rap artist) where the one underage person in our group just needed to have a signed paper on them with contact info to legal guardians

[rustic scroll]

No rules will be out until on-site

[elfin leaf]

Thanks!

But one more important question

Lol server?

Eu west or Eune?

Im not from here and need to transfer my account

[rustic scroll]

will be west

[elfin leaf]

Thank you so much

[vapid rover]

Will it atleast be ARAM this year.... last year they called it aram but it was blind pick...

[rustic scroll]

hahha that was probably my mistake, happens when there's a lot to think about sry

[chrome copper]

if I cant make it to the event & want to sell my ticket via i.e. ticketswap, should I already book seats or sell without booking a seat first? And can it be done via the Dreamhack website (I only see the option to gift tickets, not sell).

[rustic scroll]

Not via DH no, I owuld probably not pick a seat however the ones who buy will need your email to choose a seat

[thin birch]

The requirements for hltv is 950 dollars and the tournament is 2475 dollars so you are allowed Hltv 😊 but the admins need to request it.

It would be better cause then better teams want to be involved in the tournament 💪

[vapid rover]

I will Hunt u down with pings if that happens again 😇🫡 aram is so much more fun 1v1 since even "bad players" (like me) have a chance towords better players if u have luck with champs 😅 ( u do amazing work! And might forgive u if it enda up blind pick again)

[rustic scroll]

I am well aware my guy and we usually have it but we will not this time

Never said we weren't allowed just that we won't have HLTV

[thin birch]

Are you? Cause your answer was that the reason is that is a smaller tournament. HLTV doesnt care if its a smaller one when the requirements are meet but I guess "you know that to" so therefore I dont understand your reason because it doesnt explain why you dont register the tournament to hltv? Its really not that much work for an admin to do.

[rustic scroll]

I was the one who talked to HLTV last time so I do know what is required. When I said smaller tournament I meant that it's not worth the extra work for us right now as we already have a lot of different tournaments for the admins.

[mighty berry]

one more question - the bag ban
are there any exceptions, like getting it searched before entering? I have a hyperinsulin pancreas issue (like, the exact opposite of diabetes) and need to carry my blood sugar machine + glucose saves + just other general sugary support especially if I’ll be in there for hours on end watching games.. definitely don’t think I’ll have the pocket space. My wallet isn’t eager about prices of snacks and food either 😅 I just wanna be comfortable

[round rover]

Should both me and my teamate do a seperate Registration or i am doing just one? for the fortnite esl

[hybrid bolt]

The exception is medical items within a medical kind of bag. You can't like, bring a suitcase and then put a medical item in for instance haha

[hybrid bolt]

Same line, all LAN!

[round rover]

I have lan

[hybrid bolt]

Then you're fine, queue up in the LAN queue!

[round rover]

Where?

[hybrid bolt]

OH you mean registration online, best to ask in the Fortnite discord

[round rover]

Ok thanks

I have already but they havent answerd

[lusty fjord]

hello, I wonder when you have the addon for owcs, can you be late or do you have to be on time to have an guaranteed seat?

I might wanna buy a day ticket + addon to friday, but I am gonna be later there due to doctors appointment

[hybrid bolt]

The guaranteed seat is yours regardless of time. Can turn up late, doesn't matter. You will have a seat basically

[lusty fjord]

alright

[lusty fjord]

and If I only wanna go on OWCS on Sunday I only buy OWCS for sunday right (I have addon for Sunday)?

[hybrid bolt]

Yep to guarantee a seat for Sunday you need a Sunday ticket and an owcs sundsy addon

[tepid prawn]

Hey I know the fortnite ESL cup just got released but is there any info on how many people can be playing for each "heat"? Is it only 50 duos that can play?

[lusty fjord]

I got that

but if I only wanna check out expo etc on Friday, I buy a friday ticket only right?

if I buy a ticket and want an add-on in a few days, do I have to buy a new ticket or can I buy just an add-on?

[modest pawn]

It says there is only 1 normal LAN ticket left but if you look on the seatmap there are about 100 seats left. Will there be more tickets later this week for sale?????

[hybrid bolt]

Ah yeha just a Friday

[tulip olive]

People dont pick their seats immediately

[hybrid bolt]

Nope. It just means people aren't seated. This is it. There are no more seats

[lusty fjord]

or is the addon connected with the ticket?

[hybrid bolt]

The addon is exactly an addon. You don't need another addon, unless you want to guarantee your seat for another day too

[lusty fjord]

so I can buy the addon afterwards (if its still left ofc and if I want to)?

[modest pawn]

But like yesterday it said there was like 10 tickets left and maybe one hour later it went to 30 something?

[hardy solstice]

Total amount of seats for DreamHack Stockholm: 1756
Total amount of claimed seats for DreamHack Stockholm: 1446

ahh so you guys just host ESL at dreamhack?

i thought it was like ESL is under dreamhack

[tulip olive]

Well sort of yeah, its complicated 😛

[tepid prawn]

yeaa i get it now okay

[tulip olive]

But we have noone here doing FN stuff

[tepid prawn]

got it

tysm

[lusty fjord]

so I can buy addon in like a week for Friday if I want to or?

[hybrid bolt]

I'm really lost on the addon side of things on what you're saying. If you want to buy a Friday ticket next week you probably can if they don't sell out. If you want to buy a Friday addon next week for owcs seating, same applies!

[wild island]

Can I pick seats with the OWCS add on? Or is it first come first serve? The app doesn’t allow me to choose. And the seating map doesn’t load.

[upbeat bramble]

the seating add-on is just for a separete seating area where you have "a guaranteed seat"

[wild island]

Gotcha. Is the seating add on section different than the platinum seating add on section?

[lusty fjord]

sorry, will explain again

so if I buy a ticket today (only Friday) and then in maybe 5 days I want to buy an addon, is that possible?

[upbeat bramble]

if they're still available, yes

[wild island]

Can I sit with my friend who has the Platinum add on. Or will we be split up?

[lusty fjord]

alrighty

thanks for answer

[hybrid bolt]

You can sit together iirc!

[lusty fjord]

is Sunday Wave 3 and Friday Ticket the same or why is it 2 different names?

because when I order the sunday ticket (in October) it said Wave 3 and now 1 day ticket says just "Friday ticket" or "Sunday ticket"

[next pumice]

My Friday ticket said Wave 4

is that significant for something?

[valid pasture]

Ticket waves has different pricing

Apart from that, not really

[hybrid bolt]

Waves are just pricing, yep. Nothing else

[rare shale]

Just so you know, I am diabetic and I am bringing a bag with just my meds + sugary stuff too. If you need any assistance at one point I am happy to help

[mighty berry]

ahhh omg that’s really sweet thank you!! I’m going to look into trying to find some kind of bag that makes it obvious it’s for medical but idk if I’ll find/get one in time and may have to load up my pockets anyway and hope for the best HAHA is it okay if I add you?

[mighty berry]

I heard corny was gonna be there which is good because I’m pretty sure I’ve single-handedly funded their entire swedish sales for my blood sugar emergencies 🤞😂

[rare shale]

Well, just make sure to bring a doctors note and you should be fine I think. I was told to only put my meds and food in my bag and to not put anything else in there?

And yes ofcourse you can add me

[rustic scroll]

It doesn’t have to be obvious but just make sure it’s not a huge bag. Should be only what you need for medical reasons in it and if you have prescriptions you should have them ready just to make it easier

[autumn locust]

Since the tickets are running low now, how many LAN-goers are there in total this year?

[vapid rover]

This This was posted yesterday 🙂 So i'd say somewhere between this numbers is a quilify guess. 🙂
"Total amount of seats for DreamHack Stockholm: 1756
Total amount of claimed seats for DreamHack Stockholm: 1446
😄"

[magic nexus]

Is it possible to find electric scooters in the area around Stockholmsmässan? I don't live in Stockholm and I'm considering various options for travelling efficiently back and forth to the subway.

[next pumice]

The commuter train station is literally beside the venue

Or did you plan to take the underground from further away?

[hybrid bolt]

There are ebikes around, yep. But as belpita said, the train is super close. Like, 30 second walk close

[next pumice]

You see the outside of Hall A from the train platform 🚉

However, it’s good to know that the station is on a hill, so going to the venue itself downhill and from it, it will be uphill. In case you have trouble walking

[near shard]

I cant buy tickets, every time i try it says card declined but i know its not a problem with the card

[tulip olive]

Usually its your bank that stops lets say international payments or something like that. But if you get the message that your card is declined its 99% between you and the bank

[near shard]

Im not sure about that as other payments work just fine

[tulip olive]

Id still say contact your bank 🙂 If the payment system recieves a decline thats usually it

And from experience its almost always that the card is locked for "unsafe purchases" etc

[half ibex]

Probably optimistic but I presume if we have the OWCS add-on we won't be able to get into the venue earlier than normal? Seeing as the games start at 11am CET and the festival opens at 10am.

[tulip olive]

Nope 🙂

[half ibex]

Fair, that's what I suspected but just thought I'd check

[final viper]

\

[rare shale]

Yes I agree

[final viper]

i was trying to type in game 😭

[rare shale]

Sorry I am just bullying

[final viper]

i’m still not used to 2 monitors sorry

[formal ginkgo]

been there

[ebon bronze]

Hi. Does anyone know if there are exceptions to the bag ban for diabetics?

[hybrid bolt]

Yes - medical issues allow you to bring a small medical bag to hold them in

[ebon bronze]

Thanks for the quick respone. Do i check it in when showing my ticket?

[tulip olive]

Yep 🙂 Just show it to the entrance personel when asked

[ebon bronze]

Super! Thanks again

[tulip olive]

And make sure its just the things you need for the diabetes stuff in the bag 🙂

[ebon bronze]

Absolutely

[tulip olive]

Squeezing answers in between boss pulls in wow 😛

[ocean slate]

So, I been stupid when buying tickets. I bought 20+lan ticket fr me and regular lan ticket for my daughter not understanding that we cant sit together. Is there any way I could swith my 20+ lan ticket to a regular?

[upbeat bramble]

I understand wanting to make sure, but it would be absolutely outrageous to not have an exception for medical needs to be fair

[rare shale]

uuuh. I think tickets are sold out.....

[ebon bronze]

of course but as you said, better be sure than be denied at the door and not able to go. Just better to check if there are any out of the ordinary requirements like filling a hidden form or smth

[tulip olive]

Sounds like a case for [e-mail]

[ocean slate]

Yeah, I write to support and see if theres anything they can help me with!

[upbeat bramble]

Very fair, I can only imagine wanting to be quadruple sure is a priority

[ebon bronze]

Pretty new to all this to be fair. Got my diagnosis three weeks ago. But i guess that makes me more cautious 🙂

[tulip olive]

No worries 🙂 Make sure you take care of yourself during the event ^^ its easy to forget food and stuff

[upbeat bramble]

Agreed, speaking from experience haha

[worthy oak]

Hello! A friend of mine bought all of our tickets, should my friend send the tickets to each and one of us or can the tickets be under his name?

[merry abyss]

As long as your friend is present when checking in with the tickets it's totaly fine for you friend to hold the tickets 😁

[fierce horizon]

Hey! As a family visitor, are you allowed to bring a stroller for the toddler? Was thinking it's better to ask cuz bags are not allowed. Maybe it's better to leave it at home out of convenience due to the venue etc, but that's another topic.

[lusty fjord]

I dont think they are allowed

[fierce horizon]

gotcha, npnp, thanks!

[zenith rune]

What exactly do you get if you buy a lan ticket because I don’t understand exactly what you get

And if I buy a 3 day ultimate ticket do I get access to lan

[valid pasture]

You get access to the LAN with a LAN ticket

[zenith rune]

i feel like they should include that in the 3 day ultimate ticket

[final viper]

LAN tickets are for the LAN. that’s why they have their own category.

[zenith rune]

but don't you need a normal ticket to get in

and those lan tickets aint cheap too

[final viper]

no, if you buy a LAN ticket then you have access to the LAN and the rest of the festival. if you buy a non-LAN ticket, then you have access to the rest of the festival except the LAN.

i have a 3-day ultimate ticket myself bc i’m not interested in the LAN.

[zenith rune]

oh ok thanks

[final viper]

[next pumice]

Afaik, they are allowed but do double check with DH support just in case. Also consider that it could be very crowded and hard to move around with a stroller

[zenith rune]

also what is the bag size you can have. like can i have a back pack with me

[tulip olive]

No bag

[rustic scroll]

for day visitors you can't have bags but for lan you can have whatever you want

[tulip olive]

Unless youre in the lan 🙂 then there isnt a restriction

[zenith sail]

@tulip olive Goord Morning Sir, Is it possible to upgrade the regular LAN ticket to an Ultimate LAN ticket?

[valid pasture]

You have to check with Support

It's mostly sold out though

[arctic vine]

Want help? Email our support team

Some specific answers can only be answered by our support team, such as ticket upgrades, issues with tickets, and detailed personal information.

Email them 👇

[e-mail]

[tulip olive]

Try emailing ^

[zenith sail]

there are still about 12 tickets left

okok

[zenith rune]

So I have to pay 160$ dollars just for a bag wow

Insane

[valid pasture]

I mean, you don't have to

[tulip olive]

No you pay 160$ for a LAN seat

[valid pasture]

It's also not an addon, it's a separate kind of ticket

[zenith rune]

I mean when it is a 6 hour drive away I think I want to have smth with me

But probs gonna get a hotel or smth cuz it’s to far away to drive back and forth for 3 days

[valid pasture]

Sounds reasonable 🙂

[zenith rune]

yeah

[exotic oriole]

Where u find this text? cna u link to the place u find this?

[zenith rune]

doesent say anything about food but if you have to have empty water botles you probs can't bring food

here

https://dreamhack.com/summer/rules/

[vapid rover]

This rules is for wrong event, this is for last event that was this summer.

Rules for winter dont apply anything about stuff u can bring or not (yet) so it might be different.

[zenith rune]

ye but they seem to get stricter this year so maybe it's the same

[next pumice]

There is NO rule 1.6 (please someone get this reference)

[vapid rover]

https://dreamhack.com/stockholm/rules/ This is the rules for winter, so before we have got any other info confirmed, id say we should wait until we got it clarifyed by staff 🙂 I know the question come up yesterday, and pretty sure @hybrid bolt was going to check this up and come back with respons about this for us. 🙂

[next pumice]

Strollers are allowed at the premises. You can even borrow them from the info desk. But sometimes other rules apply for specific events

Animals are not allowed, unless certified assistance/blind/medical aid dogs

[zenith rune]

only dogs what if i have a assistance lizard

[tulip olive]

Luckilly sweden has some pretty strict regulations on assistance animals. Especially compared to..other countries

[zenith rune]

yeah true

[errant stratus]

hmm wonder if xenon can classify his arcade machine as support animal ?

[zenith rune]

ey just put some ears on it and its your suport animal

[zenith rune]

does anyone know if there is food to buy inside dreamhack

[next pumice]

Yes, there is

[tulip olive]

In the US, possibly.
In SWE, No

[meager bane]

Any estimate for how long OWCS grand finals will take on sunday?

[rustic scroll]

We just got the answer from the venue, you can bring whatever you want as long as you don’t bring it into the restaurants (no bags ofc)

[bitter fossil]

So water bottles are not considered bags?

[fickle spire]

I really wish I can bring my own water since I dont want the tap water. Is it possible to contact someone for this?

[exotic oriole]

thank you!

[rustic scroll]

Just bringing a water bottle in hand is fine

[bitter fossil]

Perfect

[gray jay]

Hey, on my ticket it says entry at 7pm. Is this a bug?

[rustic scroll]

Should be a bug yeah, entry is 10:00 for day visitors

[gray jay]

Okey thanks

[elfin leaf]

How to choose LAN place? I already bought LAN ticket. Link "I need help" doesnt work.

[bitter fossil]

Did you connect your ticket via the email?

[elfin leaf]

Sorry, I fixed the problem)

Thanks for answering

[urban warren]

Hi! I emailed this question but haven't gotten a reply for a couple days yet so figured I'd ask here. I know there's a no bag policy, does this include those like folded bags you enter the event with it folded and empty but can put stuff in it after getting through?

[tulip olive]

If you can have the folded bag in your pocket it should be all good 🙂

Like dont bring a huge ikea bag 😛

[urban warren]

Alright thats perfect! haha

was thinking because i want to be able to buy or refill water and not need to carry it as well as phone and such in my hands all the time as womens jean pockets are tragic hahaha

Another question as well on the same theme, my partner is one of the players in the event and is allowed to bring a bag and such, would similar rules apply here that if i for example carry his bag that this would be allowed in the venue or could i be asked for a ticket check?

[tulip olive]

Your partner will have another entrance to enter through with a bag 🙂 If they enter through the "normal" entrance they cant bring their bag

[urban warren]

Yeah i moreso meant if i carry his bag in the venue at any point after hes also already through the entrance

[bitter fossil]

Once you're inside the venue, you can absolutely carry his bag

[tulip olive]

You wont be bag-checked inside the event as you can buy things ^^ but you cant enter the venue with a bag unless you have a lan ticket and go through the separate entrance

[urban warren]

Alright! Thank you so much for your answers 🫡

[urban warren]

While im at it with the questions, i saw in the stockholm general chat its not confirmed if the wardrobes will be open or not, is this still the case?

[tulip olive]

Still the case ^^

[final viper]

god damn i cant bring my pet gorilla?

what a shame.

[zenith rune]

I know right and me that wanted to bring my pet polar bear

[tulip olive]

Lets move non support questions to #stockholm-general

[sturdy saffron]

Does anyone know if power banks for phones would be allowed?

[bitter fossil]

yes, power banks are allowed

[sturdy saffron]

Thank you!

[dusky pivot]

do you think that it would be ok to bring food in if you have allergies?

[tulip olive]

Allergies are generally not an excemption

[dusky pivot]

ok

also am I correct in understanding that water bottles must be empty on entering the venue but can be filled once inside?

[tulip olive]

You should be able to bring them in hand from what i understood 🙂

[dusky pivot]

perfect thank you!

[tulip olive]

And if youre in the lan well youre exempt from a lot

[next pumice]

Stockholmsmässan itself doesn't have a rule against bringing in food, but I would suspect that the bag ban for this event might make it a little difficult to bring edibles

[snow tangle]

Hi. Is it to late to send out my friends ticket so they get their gamertag on the printed label at the Lan seat?

[vapid rover]

We got this from Matilta yesterday, so borh food and water etc is ok, as long its not in a bag.
"
We just got the answer from the venue, you can bring whatever you want as long as you don’t bring it into the restaurants (no bags ofc)
"

And reason for u cant bring it to the restaurants is most cuz of the rules about the alcohol permit the venue has.

[next pumice]

I think most food establishments don’t like you bringing outside food to eat inside their venues

[vapid rover]

Ofc that also. 🙂

[tulip olive]

Im actually not sure if these are printed anymore 🙂

[valid pasture]

At Summer they printed out a paper with the ESL username, but that's likely only to tell that you've come to the correct seat I guess

[tulip olive]

But its very possible that if they exist that they havent been printed yet ^^

Construction starts on sunday more or less 🙂

[valid pasture]

Oh right, yeah makes sense

Still have brain fog from an intensive work week

[wise wasp]

Hey I have tickets for the event but I can’t buy seats for the OWCS finals unless I buy another ticket, what gives? Really can’t afford to shell out for another ticket just for seats, is there any way I can just buy the seats separately?

[hardy solstice]

https://www.tixr.com/groups/dreamhacksweden/events/dreamhack-stockholm-2024-99758?plt=e9418279-7587-4b86-94b4-2a5ed145317c

There you go for ow seperated tickets 😄

[wise wasp]

LIFESAVER

[urban warren]

In the description for the owcs seating addon it says "First come, first serve allocation within that area."

does this mean there is a specific area for people with a seating ticket?

[upbeat bramble]

Yes, it's a separate area that has a maximum capacity

[sturdy saffron]

Does that mean that people who don't have the seating addon can't watch the OWCS live at all , or will there still be free-for-all seating for people who don't have the add-on? Because if that's the case what are the benefits to having the seating add-on?

[vapid rover]

those who dont have addon has first come first serve, once with addon has guaranteed seating

[wise wasp]

so the seating areas are separate?

i wanna sit w my friend who has the add-on

[wise wasp]

thank u duck man for saving me from a lonely existence

[lusty fjord]

I think you gotta be there super early or buy an add-on

but idk since I have never been there

[rustic scroll]

The seating areas are separate, with the add-on you get access to the area with guaranteed seating

[next pumice]

asking for a friend: if they are already inside the building before the event starts because of work duties, do they need to go outside and validate their ticket to go back inside?

[stiff glacier]

they do need to get their wristband to be able to stay in the venue so i would say yes to your question

[next pumice]

I suppose it depends if their workplace ID is valid as entrance, which can probably differ between venues

[stiff glacier]

If he/she is working during the event then i would say yes but if he/she are attending the event as a laner or visitor then a wristband is a must.

[next pumice]

They work at the venue, as in where the event is held, but they also bought a regular day ticket, apparently

[stiff glacier]

Do they work during the event? If not a ticket is mandatory.

However they might have a deal with their employer and DH and thereby be able to attend. I do not know all ins and outs 🙂

[next pumice]

Yeah, I think I'll tell them to ask their employer instead It would make sense that they have access to events happening in their own workplace, but who knows

I suppose they bought a ticket to be on the safe side

[tulip olive]

Thats actually not the case usually 🙂 Unless they actually work during the event

[next pumice]

No, it is usually the case, according to them. But occasionally specific events will not allow access tostaff at the premises. I’m thinking DH is also a little different to many other events in that it’s 24/7 and there are such special ticket price tiers

[tulip olive]

I work with many other events as well and we rarely allow staff to be at the event unless they actually get a ticket ^^ said ticket can be given by us of course but their badge is usually not enough to do non work at the event

[next pumice]

Interesting. I suppose it differs at different premises

From what I understand, the only times they’ve been strictly forbidden to enter an exhibition or area have been for closed company conferences

[tulip olive]

But anyways for them i would suggest that they shouldnt assume that they have full access to be at the event with just their badge 🙂

[next pumice]

Yeah, they got a ticket anyway, so we can be sure to meet up. Would have been a bit awkward otherwise

[tulip olive]

Wouldnt be surprised if they can get tickets from their employer but 🙂

[next pumice]

Them waving from the office window to me in the queue haha

[urban warren]

Buying the add-on only doesn't let me put any of the creator codes, is there any promo code that works with the seat add-on?

[stiff glacier]

do you have a ticket oither than a add-on?

[urban warren]

i do, its one of the free tickets the teams get so need to buy the seat add-on seperately

[stiff glacier]

have you got the ticket in tixr? if so then buying a add-on shouldnt be a problem i belive

[hardy solstice]

Is it overwatch add-on btw?

[urban warren]

the overwatch addon yes and no i dont have the ticket yet as they havent given them yet

[hardy solstice]

https://www.tixr.com/groups/dreamhacksweden/events/dreamhack-stockholm-2024-99758?plt=e9418279-7587-4b86-94b4-2a5ed145317c

[bitter fossil]

You need the entrance ticket too ^^

[urban warren]

so i cant buy the addon seperately like from the link that was sent earlier in the chat?

[urban warren]

this one

[hardy solstice]

yes

tho make sure your able to get the normal entrance ticket also as you can't refund the add-on if your not able to get an entrance ticket.

[stiff glacier]

A solution is for you to contact the ticketholder and ask them to buy the add-on

[hardy solstice]

They can just buy the add-on from seperated tixr account. 😄

[stiff glacier]

the hazzle with multiple accounts 😂

[hardy solstice]

That's why the different link is in faq tho 😄

[stiff glacier]

Fair 😄

[civic hound]

Also, I don't believe the discount codes apply to the add-ons.

[urban warren]

So just for clarification as im a bit confused still, if i have the ticket in tixr i can buy an addon directly connected to my ticket? but it is also fine to buy the addon seperately and have the ticket and seat addon seperately? or does the addon have to be connected to the main ticket?

[median whale]

Is there any bar on Dreamhack where you can take a cider/beer and watch the hiphop concert on friday?

[tulip olive]

The bar is only available to visitors with the 20+ LAN tickets.

[median whale]

Alright, I understand. Thank you

[hybrid bolt]

Doesn't need to be connected, you can scan off two different emails for instance. Why you'd do that, I don't know, but you'd just need to show them is all

[rustic scroll]

Actually pretty sure some of the restaurants have alcohol but there’s not any where you would be able to watch the show while drinking

[median whale]

What I meant was, if there was a possibility if you can take the cider/beer with you and go to the hiphop stage

[urban warren]

alright thank you!!

[stiff glacier]

No.

[median whale]

Oki

[pale cosmos]

Hey I have the diamond ticket add on and it talks about meet and greet and a behind a scenes tour at the OWCS area and I haven’t seen more information about when it is and how to access it , any information would be great thanks !

[tired plaza]

It is possible to upgrade normal 3 day pass tickets to 3 day ultimate tickets?

[hybrid bolt]

Yep via [e-mail]

[tired plaza]

Alright thanks 🙏

[real bear]

How do we get the OWCS cosmetics for the event? Do we have to redeem a code to get them or?

[tired plaza]

Hopefully they respond to emails quick its only a few days now 🙏🙏🙏

[autumn locust]

The LAN closes at 10.00 on monday, when do you have to be out the building? Does the internet shut down at 10 or do you have to be gone by then ?

[upbeat bramble]

You'll have to be out by 10 if previous times are anything to go by

[stiff glacier]

if you are still on the venue after 12 you are our property until next hack ok? 😛

[final viper]

ur now part of the crew

welcome

[stiff glacier]

thats how we recruit 😛

[hardy solstice]

Sign me up 😄

[odd zenith]

Idk if anyone has asked this but I have seen that it says if I have purchased an OWCS add on (which I have) I would be given a code to claim in game rewards. Does anyone know where I will receive this code

[timid jay]

Hello, I have a question about parking. What is the most popular time for people to come and do you guys usually have a problem with parking spaces. It would be nice to know to I can factor it in when I need to leave to be able to get a parking spot. Im a LAN attendee and will be there the entire weekend so it would be nice to be able to secure a parking spot for the weekend.

[stiff glacier]

early

[valid pasture]

I'd say Saturday is likely the busiest, so I'd assume that there are way less parking spots available during peak hours that day.

https://stockholmsmassan.se/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/SM-parkeringar-20240501_Liggande_ENG.jpg

[timid jay]

Well our orignal plan was to come on friday around 13 but maby all the spots will be gone by then

[valid pasture]

There are outdoors parking at the East entrance where LAN attendees will enter

Those spots could be more accessible

Well it's over 2000 spots, I think you'll find one by then

2000 at the venue, and another 700 at the sports field (if I read into it correctly)

[timid jay]

Allright, thanks, well probaly go a bit earier to make sure we get a spot

[cosmic frigate]

hello guys i hope this hasn't been asked before but does anyone know how big the seating area for the owcs is i'm scared that if i sit in the back that i won't see well (i bought the add on)

[hybrid bolt]

It's fairly big, try to sit at the front but it's still all good viewing from what I've seen!

[tulip olive]

Yeah it say theres no problems though ^^

[cosmic frigate]

okay thank you two for the quick answer! do you have any recommendations regarding what a good time to arrive at the venue is?

[violet spoke]

If I signed up for the Fortnite lan and plan on renting a pc do I have to rent a monitor too or are we provided with monitors?

[valid pasture]

You're only provided a table, chair, power for PC/monitor and one port in the network switch. You might need an ethernet cable as well, because that wasn't included at DH Summer when I rented a whole setup.

You should also contact Gameffect as soon as possible if you rely on renting, because I'm not sure how much is in stock on their end

[vagrant hemlock]

Oh, I thought it was available for anyone over 20 years 😥

[edgy socket]

Is the giving away tickets option bugged? Doesn't display anything for me.

[coarse snow]

Are there any rules about photography as a guest? Or can I bring my own professional camera to take pictures and post on my own social media. Is there stuff I wouldnt be allowed to shoot?

[hybrid bolt]

You can take photos, and there is also rules - 6.8 on the rules page.
https://dreamhack.com/stockholm/rules/

tl;dr: you can take photos, if someone asks you to stop, you stop and ofc be respectful

[coarse snow]

Thats a given 👌

[jagged cypress]

Hej. Jag köpte två biljetter tills på lördag igår. Men har inte fått några biljetter eller kod. Det har dragits pengar på mitt konto. Känner lite panik nu. Hjälp någon 😃

[long eagle]

hey, can a supporter help me briefly (private)

[valid pasture]

We typically write in english here. Did you buy your ticket through Tixr? If so, do you see it there?

[valid pasture]

If you want help from crew/staff, you might want to hint what it is about as they have different areas they specialize in

You don't have to give specific details if they are sensitive

[long eagle]

it doesn't matter as long as it's a trustworthy supporter 😄

[valid pasture]

You can PM me then 🙂

[long eagle]

Are you a supporter? 🙂

[valid pasture]

Of what exactly? This is a support channel, not specifically a supporter channel 😄

[rustic scroll]

If you want to dm you’ll need to say what the subject is but most things can get answered in this channel. If it’s a ticket question you’d need to email suppor

[bitter fossil]

Have you received an email? Check junk folder.

[long eagle]

I sent you a DM, please see if it's possible

[bitter fossil]

As MaTILTa already said, most things can be answered here. What is your question about?

[long eagle]

I'm invited as a creator for dreamhack but would also like to take part in LAN tournaments. I've now seen a cheap ticket but I'm from Germany and can't contact a seller there without a bank account and wanted to ask if a supporter might buy me a ticket if I send him the money beforehand 😄

[final viper]

girocard?

[long eagle]

it is a Swedish site

[valid pasture]

I'd say the problem is transferring money

[final viper]

i’m in germany rn. do you not have a bank account at all or is it just the girocard?

the one that you get here and can’t purchase online w?

[long eagle]

You can only verify yourself on the site with a Swedish account

[valid pasture]

Blocket is a marketplace with private users, not companies per say

[final viper]

oooh. that’s ass.

[valid pasture]

Companies use the platform as well, but I'm sure this is a private seller

[long eagle]

yes

[bitter fossil]

We recommend buying tickets from Tixr as it's the official way

[long eagle]

regular lan is out of stock 😦

[stiff glacier]

yes and there are very few BYOCtickets overall left and to booth I belive that the wave that was was the last before the event i.e no more tickets will be released.

[long eagle]

Can someone who has an account there help me with my blocket problem?

[valid pasture]

I might be able to help you getting the contact details, but I won't be able to do the money transaction thing

You can send me the link in PM

I'm not sure how much I see initially, but I do have an account there

And I already have a ticket since July if you find me untrustworthy 😄

[long eagle]

hahahaha 😄

That would be great, thank you

[final viper]

this feels like i’m witnessing a drug deal icl

[bitter fossil]

There might be Facebook groups for buying and selling tickets if that is easier. Be careful of scammers though.

[hazy ore]

Wow thanks!!🙏 I was so stressed about it!!

[long eagle]

could you send a link of a group please?

[bitter fossil]

You will have to find one on your own, since we do not allow ticket sales here, so I son't want to promote that.

[long eagle]

ok thanks anyway

[vagrant hemlock]

Hello, i had a problem and i cant go to the dreamhack sweden. I am selling the ticket and there is a guy who is interested to buy it. The thing is that when im trying to change the seat i doesnt let me, it says that there is no ticket when i have it. What should i do?

[bitter fossil]

Why do you have to change the seat?

And did you connect the ticket to your account?

[dusk plover]

Hey! How long does it usually take to get a reply to an email sent to the support email? Is it better to try and get hold of a staff member here?

[tulip olive]

Some things like ticketing issues can only be handled by the email support 🙂

But have you tried asking your question here

[dusk plover]

No I have not. It's regarding a creator I work with that would want to discuss the possabilities for a Creator Pass. But we have not heard back after sending an application for it on the web page (as the page suggested us to do).

[rustic scroll]

When did you send the application?

[dusk plover]

Early last week or late the week before that

[rustic scroll]

We don't technically accept creators anymore, the deadline is october 31st

But you can DM me who the creator is

But we probably won't accept creators

[dusk plover]

I'll DM you the info I sent in the email :))

[worthy sentinel]

Yo quick question about can I bring a power strip?

[tulip olive]

As a LAN visitor?

[worthy sentinel]

as 20+ player

[tulip olive]

Not only can you, you should as you only get 1 outlet 🙂

[worthy sentinel]

ok so i take power strip i plug to outlet and its good

[tulip olive]

Yep 🙂 Shucko outlets

[sour brook]

Hi have a question , do you know maybe is there any order player on the LAN than 39 year old? Or can check it?

@tulip olive

@arctic vine

[bitter fossil]

I'm not sure what you mean. Are you asking if there are other 39 year olds?

[tulip olive]

I would guess so 😛 no need to ping when you dont get an answer after 1 min though

[sour brook]

Sorry bro

[bitter fossil]

also love that you pinged a bot that will not answer

[tulip olive]

From what i can see flags seems to be on the list of prohibited items at least for crew. Would guess the same applies to visitors

[sour brook]

I mean is there any older participant than 39 years old?

[bitter fossil]

We do not know

[tulip olive]

Most likely 🙂

[sour brook]

But the one who play on LAN not only visitor

[tulip olive]

Most likely again 😛

And no we dont have that info 🙂

[sour brook]

Ok, sounds nice thanks

It would be nice to be the oldest LAN player we will see....

[bitter fossil]

There probably will be people of varying ages there. Definitely some parents gaming with their kids

[sour brook]

Cool

Total how many duo?

[bitter fossil]

Duo?

[sour brook]

Around No need exact amount

[bitter fossil]

Do you mean for Fortnite?

[sour brook]

Yes

[wintry fulcrum]

Is it possible to buy a ticket for a friend? Or is the ticket personal?

Day ticket

[bitter fossil]

You can buy a ticket from someone else, yes

[wintry fulcrum]

So it wont be a problem even if my name is on the ticket?

[bitter fossil]

When they have gifted the ticket to you, it is entirely yours

[wintry fulcrum]

The thing is you cant gift tickets

[bitter fossil]

Oh wait I read 'buy a ticket from a friend'

[wintry fulcrum]

Oh😄

[bitter fossil]

But yes, you can gift tickets

[wintry fulcrum]

Ok i dont see a button for it

[bitter fossil]

So if you buy the ticket for your friend, you can gift it to them or keep it on your account

[wintry fulcrum]

Oh ok

[bitter fossil]

Have you connected the ticket to your account?

[wintry fulcrum]

Yes i bought my ticket on tixe

Tixr

[bitter fossil]

Yes, but you should get an email to link the ticket to your DreamHack account

and from there, you can gift tickets

[wintry fulcrum]

Oh ok gonna check

Oh now i see in email, u can gift ticket

Thanks

[bitter fossil]

Perfect 😄

It is okay if you keep the ticket though, if you show the ticket at the entrance for your friend

[wintry fulcrum]

👍

[rare sapphire]

because i cant go and there is a guy interested in my ticket but i wants to change the seat

[bitter fossil]

But why would you need to change the seat if you're giving it away anyway? Let the other guy choose the seat

[merry abyss]

I need to be clear. The coat check at West entrance will be available to all Day visitors on friday thru sunday?

[tulip olive]

Yep that's the main entrance. Only LAN visitors use the east entrance

[safe kiln]

Question regarding the bag ban, does it only apply for closed bags? Would for example one of the blue ikea shopping bags be okay to bring so I can carry my keyboard and such in it?

[lusty fjord]

bag ban dosent affect LAN attenders

[urban warren]

bag bans does not apply for LAN attendees but if youre a normal ticket holder its a complete bag ban

[lusty fjord]

only day visitors

[urban warren]

maybe a long shot but does anyone know what type of food places will be there? ive got celiac and i like doing my research beforehand to know what i can and cant eat

[frigid delta]

Is there a cloakroom for coats/hats etc at Dreamhack? Also can we bring in our own water bottles if we can't bring in bags, or do we have to buy water there/will there be water drinking facilities available in the venue itself? (non-LAN tickets)

[stiff glacier]

Yes , yes and i belive there will be however i cant make any promises

[next pumice]

There are water fountains

[stiff glacier]

Check stockholmsmässans webpage and the map that relesased about 10 min ago 🙂

[frigid delta]

Awesome thank you! Will make sure to bring our water bottles then

[urban warren]

ty! found on their webpage

I was invited as a +1 for the official Dreamhack Party. Does anyone know if confirmation emails are due to be sent soon? Or if we simply turn up with who invited us?

[stiff glacier]

Check with your main

[hybrid bolt]

Most likely sent on Wednesday

[urban berry]

Cheers mate, I will just have to be patient then

[mint crescent]

Oh that’s great! I checked the website and saw they indeed have a cloakroom and that solves my biggest issue by far. Just for dreamhack specifically if I took a daypack sized backpack could I store it there along with my coat? I don’t intend to take anything inside obviously as per the rules but it’d be really handy to not have to go back to my hotel if I wanna explore the city before or after attending that day. Idk how the bag ban works regarding that and I don’t wanna be surprised when I’m standing there

[next pumice]

No bags unless you're in the LAN and unsure if you can store you bag in the cloakroom even then. There are some luggage boxes available, but not confirmed if they will be off-limits for visitors

[vapid rover]

Since the cloakroom is after the entrence, i dont think they can allow u as visitor to have your bag in there, thats usually the case in other events ive atended to with bagban.

[mint crescent]

Yeah that’s exactly what I was thinking as well. If it is after the entrance like you say no shot but it depends on their definition of entrance. Whether it is after the first physical barrier or where the event territory begins.

[next pumice]

the cloakroom is inside, after the ticket check

[mint crescent]

Yea that I was aware of but from earlier convos I gather that the lockers will not be available.

[mint crescent]

Yep then it is off limits me thinks.

[next pumice]

It is most probably this cloakroom

[mint crescent]

That would make sense. Thanks for the screenshot!

[stiff glacier]

Good idea unfortunatley the backpack will not be allowed because it will be rgarded as inside of the venue

[next pumice]

It's a little further down on this page, if you want a full overview of the premises: https://stockholmsmassan.se/en/organizers

[lusty fjord]

Pockets are allowed 🙂

[stiff glacier]

yes 🙂

[next pumice]

Giant pockets Pockets everywhere!

[brittle gulch]

Get some good cargo pants and ware them. They are both comfy and filled to the brim with pockets :3

[bitter fossil]

The only "cargo pants" I have, or pant with good pockets, is my university overall 😅

[rare shale]

Yeaaah that isn't allowed either. I checked

[next pumice]

No…pockets?

[tulip olive]

No massive pockets just for the sake of it 😛

Like you cant sew a bag onto your pants and claim its a pocket

[next pumice]

Of course, I was mostly joking. But cargo pants should be ok, right?

[tulip olive]

Yeah ^^

[rare shale]

Imagine no pockets though. The chaos

[final viper]

gonna make my pants out of ikea bags see what happens

You're a little menace lol

I usually have everything ( pc, keyboard, cables etc etc ) in a large yellow Ullared bag for easy and fast transport. I cant use that for DH then and have to bring the pc gear like a crazy pile on the gamingchair ?

LAN is excluded from bag ban

So as long as its no prohibited items like knives, weapons etc its all good

[latent perch]

arrajjt then ! tnx for that info 🙂

[rigid fox]

Any recommendations about what to bring to the Lan except your items for computer etc? And is it allowed to bring your own energy drinks inside?

[bitter fossil]

This is a good list for packing #svenska-allmänt message
And you are allowed to bring drinks and food inside

[rigid fox]

It says that I don't have access to your link

It's locked

[valid pasture]

There's a list in the FAQ on the website as well

A good pillow for extra cushion is nice

[bitter fossil]

it's a Swedish channel that you can choose a role for in #get-roles

[rigid fox]

Thanks alot:)

Question: what food / restaurants will be available at Dreamhack? Is it allowed to bring a cooling box and drinks ? (Read water / cola)

[bitter fossil]

Not sure about the food places. Are you referring to a cooling box with like ice packs in them or something that runs on electricity?

[rustic scroll]

If you have 3-day or 1-day tickets then no cooler, if you’re in the lan you can have a cooler if it’s not electric

[muted oak]

Non electric , ice packs

[bitter fossil]

Then you can bring it if you have a LAN ticket ^^

[muted oak]

Ok thanks, yeah I will be LAN with my kid and we thought it would be a good idea 🙂

Will there be any info about food later on maybe when map is up?
Maybe there will be the usual expo restaurants that Älvsjö use to have.

[next pumice]

Yep, the usual restaurants and maybe some exhibitors with food also. I think Arla will have lighter meals

[fickle spire]

So I can bring in redbull and my own food?

[bitter fossil]

Yes, as long as you don't eat/drink it near the restaurants in the venue

[woeful lotus]

Hey! Just a question. If I have a lan Regular ticket can I upgrade it to an ultimate ticket

[hardy solstice]

You can only upgrade from daypass to byoc but you can't upgrade byoc tickets sadly.

[vapid rover]

Hasn't this been able to do through support@dreamhack ? but might not be able this close to event tho?

[hardy solstice]

^Yeah you should be able to but this close? maybe worth a try at least but can't guarante.

[bitter fossil]

Only support can do that in that case, but not sure if they will be able to do it in time

[quartz kestrel]

Yo! First time visitor here and was looking up some tips and trix, and six years ago komplett.se posted a youtube video with a "hack" that you can build a LAN-shelf that your comp can stand on top of, to free up some space. Is this still allowed? Would be awesome to pimp our space ❤️

[hardy solstice]

Yes it's allowed as long as it's stable enough and basically don't collapse 😄

[quartz kestrel]

Hahaha, so my carpenter skills needs to activate. Got it! Thanks 😄

[hardy solstice]

Usually find some cool looking shelfs and special designs, Some have a thing in the front where you can lock in your pc and monitor and stuff and some have cool paintings on them or shelfs where you can put drinks and PC on and way more.

Check the table size and go wild 😄 Could recommend wheels on the shelf to wheel it in with all packing (if the design allows it)

[quartz kestrel]

Ough, and now I need to take a vacation from work to make me a monster-shelf. Geeez, thanks haha! Me and my kid have two spaces booked next to each other. Theres no problem with the shelf expanding over our two seats right?

[hardy solstice]

Might be a network switch sitting there inbetween.

[vapid rover]

To be kind for neighbours, dont maximize it either so those next to you has to have it right in edge of there screens, (sure u are allowed to take your space, but atleast i try to be a bit flexible on those last inches .. 😄

[quartz kestrel]

Good point. Thanks 😉

[glossy flint]

I have a quick question cause I see there’s a bag ban will Fanny pack count cause I’m going to need something to carry my medications?

[vapid rover]

first, if u have LAN -ticket, bag ban don't apply to u. If u are just dayvisitor, u can bing your medications in a proper bag if it can't fit in your pockets etc.. but you cant come with a suitcase for just a little pill... the bag should be in minimum size needed to be able to get the meds with u

[glossy flint]

I see thank you and is there a place where I can put my coat down?

[hybrid bolt]

There is a cloakroom where you can put your coat for 40 SEK so like 4 euros

But reminder, no bags!

[glossy flint]

Not even like a tiny bag fanny pack size

[hybrid bolt]

For medication is okay ofc

But any other purpose, then no

[thin orbit]

Hey so i bought a day ticket for saturday about half an hour ago and the ticket isnt appearing. I havent gotten any mail with the receipt. The money has been drawn from my account so im really confused. Does it just take a while or is something wrong?

[stiff glacier]

[e-mail]

[hollow sage]

I'm celiac for example, I need to bring my food since the venue will probably not have GF food for me. We can't even bring a fanny pack?

[stiff glacier]

No.

[vapid rover]

Im pretty sure the venue will have GF food tho, Since it's a really common "disease" in Sweden. 🙂 So there should be plenty of options for u in the venue is my guess. (can't guarantee any ofc...)

[vapid rover]

Can we store ore LAN bags in the cloakroom aswell? 👼

[bitter fossil]

No bags in the cloakroom from what I've heard

[vapid rover]

Was worth a try atleast 😄

[glossy flint]

How about an empty bag to then use for when I purchase stuff at the venue?

[hardy solstice]

That's a no

[thin orbit]

yeah i find this weird. what if i win stuff and buy stuff. can i get a bag inside or do i just need to walk around with everything in my hands?

[valid pasture]

They will offer bags inside anyway, don't worry

[bitter fossil]

If you can get yours hands on a bag inside the venue, you can put them in there. But if you walk out with it, you can't get back in with it

[urban warren]

i got a reply in this chat earlier that a foldable bag you have in your pocket when you enter is fine as long as its in a pocket then you can use it inside the event

[hard mica]

Panta mera usualy gives away bags if you do there game. So head there and try to get a bag

[rare shale]

Bagvertisment

[hybrid bolt]

No bags from outside in!

[rare shale]

.....some of the crew did say something about those little foldable bags though. I do recall that?

[urban warren]

yeah

[rare shale]

Cough I found the culprit

[hybrid bolt]

When they check you, and see you have a bag, they'll likely ask you to throw it unfortunately

[urban warren]

i dont mean to argue but more so asking as a genuine questions, its not being used as a bag, its folded in my pocket and with nothing in it, its essentially a piece of fabric

so i dont really understand that part if bags gotten inside the event is fine

[hardy solstice]

https://polisen.se/en/laws-and-regulations/bag-ban-at-major-events/

That's the reason

Above DreamHacks control regarding bags

[urban warren]

weird

that it would include something like that

[stiff glacier]

Per Engström, Head of Section for Coordination at the National Operations Department, comments on the decision:

"The decision has been taken in light of the raised terror threat level, with the aim of increasing security. It is a concrete measure that will limit the possibilities to bring objects that may pose a danger to people visiting an event."

[urban warren]

i understand that

but its a piece of fabric in my pocket

not something i can carry smth in more than i would by getting a bag inside the event

like i completely understand no staff of dreamhack can do anything about that if that is included in the decision of the law

im saying i dont really understand the logistics of said law if that makes sense
