During Verknipt Festival 2023, we will be working with hard cups for the first time. This edition will be seen as a trial, where we will mainly investigate whether this method can really improve the sustainability of the event and is also well handled by our visitors. If so, we will use hard cups more often at our events!
Deposit recycle system
We work with a deposit system on all cups during this event. When getting a first drink, visitors pay 0,5 token for the use of a hard cup. All empty cups can be returned to the bar for a new drink or recycle token. By doing this, we make sure that all cups are collected and can be reused at multiple events. This way of recycling is very easy, with much love for nature and a perfect way to reduce our waste!
How does it work?
Verknipt maintains a zero tolerance policy on drugs. It is forbidden to use, trade or posses any drugs at the event. When the organization spots or confirms any infringements, the offender can be handed over to the police. When the delinquent is being caught he/she will be transferred over to the police. Before entering the event you will be able to deposit drugs in the designated drug bins without being charged with any consequences.Â
We will collect all the lost and found items at our office. You can get in touch and recollect your lost item by sending an email to office@verknipt.org. Any loss of your items on an event is your own responsibility.

What are ‘sealed tickets’ and why can’t I download the tickets?
Recently Verknipt switched to a new kind of tickets: sealed tickets. These tickets can only be viewed and downloaded shortly before the event. When it’s time to download your tickets, you will get a notification by email from Eventix (our ticket provider). If you’ve purchased tickets for a group of people, you’ll be able to assign the tickets or send them to your friends once they are available for download.
Why does Verknipt have ‘sealed tickets’?
Verknipt uses these sealed tickets because the ticket sale will be fairer. By using these tickets, it makes it impossible for scammers to resell their tickets through unofficial third parties/secondary markets. Tickets can only be sold through our verified partner ‘TicketSwap’ by Secure Swap. Through Secure Swap they exchange the ticket for a brand new one, so the buyer has a 100% chance to get into the event with the ticket. Also, it is not possible for sellers to ask more than 120% of the price through TicketSwap, so the ticket will always be sold for a fair price.
Is it possible to resell my ‘sealed tickets’?
If you decide to sell your ticket, it is only possible to do so through our verified partner ‘TicketSwap‘. You need your confirmation email to view your order. At the bottom of your order you will find a blue button, click the button to resell the tickets on TicketSwap. Only this way you can resell your tickets.
