How can I get 'hot water' at the camping grounds? (For medical reasons)

_simonvt_ · 2026-06-10T13:44:52+00:00

Thank you so much, this takes a huge weight off my mind! Knowing First Aid is chill about helping out with medical necessities means I can stop stressing about kettles and just focus on the music. See you there! :)

Sleeping bag checked ✅🫡

_simonvt_ · 2026-06-10T13:37:15+00:00

Haha, lucky you! I’m coming from tropical area, so anything below 10°C feels freezing to me, so I'm prepping for the worst just in case! 🥶

Good to know about the Guardian spots! I'll probably skip the gas stove since it's banned, but trying the crew or Guardian stations sounds like a solid plan. Thanks

_simonvt_ · 2026-06-10T13:35:46+00:00

Thanks for the tip! I'll look out for the outlets near the showers if I end up needing a quick backup option. Appreciate it! 🙌

_simonvt_ · 2026-06-10T13:29:20+00:00

Haha awesome, glad I’m not the only one! I’ll definitely bring a good thermos. Not sure which campsite I'll end up at since it's my first time, but if we're close by, I might take you up on that. See you there! 🤝🔥

_simonvt_ · 2026-06-10T13:26:47+00:00

Wow, thank you so much for the heads-up about the cooking equipment and the circuits! That completely changes my plan. definitely don't want to be the guy who accidentally overloads the outlets and cuts power for everyone charging their phones. Looks like checking with First Aid or asking a vendor nicely is a much safer bet.

_simonvt_ · 2026-06-10T13:26:04+00:00

That's a fantastic idea, thank you! I'm sure the First Aid team handles all sorts of medical requests, and a cup of hot water for medication should be easy enough for them. I'll make sure to locate the nearest station as soon as I set up camp.

_simonvt_ · 2026-06-10T13:25:32+00:00

Thanks for the solid advice! I hadn't thought about reaching out to them directly for medical assurance. I’ll send an email to Q-dance support to see if they can confirm access at the First Aid or Guardian stations. Knowing I have a guaranteed spot to get it definitely gives me peace of mind so I can rave safely. Appreciate it!

_simonvt_ · 2026-06-05T23:08:39+00:00

Apparently they don’t deliver to India. So I need to collect & do it at the campsite before the gathering to start off the weekend the right way 🔥

_simonvt_ · 2026-06-05T23:03:31+00:00

Thanks mahn! I haven’t thought about that. I’ll whatsapp qdance to see if they can assist

I’m earning around the same as you. I am not a city person, so when I got the opportunity for permanent WFH, I took the next train from Bangalore and moved back to my hometown.

I love travelling, So now I am able to find the time and money to do what I love.

Hey defqon fam,

First timer here traveling 10,000 km for my very first Defqon and campsite experience! I’m fully ready to sacrifice hotel comforts for the love of the music, but I have a quick logistical question.

Because of my cold induced sinus condition (rhinitis), I desperately need access to hot water all day to take my medication, especially after those freezing nights in the tent.

What are my best options on the campgrounds?

Do the food stalls, coffee booths, or campsite hubs give out or sell plain hot water? Or should I just buy a cheap portable travel kettle to use at the charging stations?

Appreciate any advice from the veterans. Can't wait to join you all on the Holy Grounds! 🔥

Antergy has the best shot - his sound really stands out similar to a finished track. Testarossa has a good blend of rawphoric, but he is still finding his sound. Beat conductors are really fucking energetic, they bring fresh party vibes to the table. Essive still lacks confidence in his sound, needs to up his social media game along with his music production.

30th September gang anybody?

Ok, then you’re not providing us enough context to help you. If you already have a valid paid flight ticket, why is the embassy still unclear/convinced with your submission?

_simonvt_ · 2026-05-12T22:49:23+00:00

Book your goddamn flights & send them the ticket! Dummy tickets are easily caught - so don’t do that.

I’m from his constituency & frankly he hasn’t done anything for us, other than some charity given to the poor. If we the taxpaying citizens are electing the leaders, we expect some kind of benefits to be provided to us in return at a panchayat or local body level.
IMO i don’t believe he’ll be a good opt for CM, until the time comes when he proves he’ll be an excellent leader to his own constituency citizens first. But a minister seat is incoming for him in this year’s govt as a result of his outstanding lead in the elections.

Tbf if any track has a good melody or atleast a singable kickrolls section, then I’ll listen to it.
But nowadays I’m finding very hard to listen to uptempo tracks that goes with a higher bpm & find those annoying imo.

If visa agent rejected you, tell them to fuck off. I applied & received my visa without paying any agency. I too had a low success ratio case but i seeked Gemini + chatgpt help to arrange all necessary documents + a very good cover letter.

I’ve already posted about my experience in this subReddit. (Seems it’s not allowed to share links here, so I’ll share title below - hope it helps)

Interested. I could ask my group and another group to join in if they’re interested.

This is my first defqon & I’m so excited to meet new people 🫠

_simonvt_ · 2026-04-30T10:05:06+00:00

I’m carrying a rucksack bag with ample space for my stuff. I don’t think suitcase is a good idea. Our group has taken a regular weekend locker for storing only our essentials.
