Born & Raised is an outdoor event so please know that the safety and security of all guests is of the utmost importance. Should emergency- and/or weather-related conditions present themselves, the festival may be forced to suspend programming and/or evacuate the festival grounds (to vehicle or campsite) to provide instructions for guest safety. Those instructions may be provided by audio and/or video broadcast from the stage(s), through the festival website, mobile app & related festival social media outlets. Updates and further information (such as resuming programming, re-entry to the festival, etc.) will be provided in the same manner.

We wish to offer the safest, most secure, & most entertaining festival experience possible, and we consider the safety and security of all festival guests to be the highest priority. Should the need arise, please follow the announcement instructions and directions of event personnel, who are available to guide you to the nearest exit.
Born & Raised utilizes a FLAG system to alert our guests and staff of the current weather conditions. We will have flags placed at the main gate, the VIP gate, and at the main stage. Additional flags will be located in the campground as noted below:


RV/Tent Camping – On the main light poles and entry to the concert area
RV Camping – On the poles by the shower house, at the vehicle entrance and across the creeks

In the event of severe weather, there will be a public address announcement such as: “Ladies and Gentlemen, may I have your attention please. There is a severe weather event approaching. It is necessary that all persons safely exit the venue at this time and take immediate cover. Please remain calm and exit the venue in an orderly manner. Ample exits are available for everyone to exit quickly and safely so please do not run, push or shove. Once outside the gates please return to your vehicles until the storm passes.” During an emergency, festival teams will be deployed to assist with crowd flow and evacuation if necessary.

Please follow any instructions given to you via the main stage public address, and check for related updates @BornRaisedFest “TWITTER” for further information. It is important to remember that we are in an open field and in the event of severe weather, your vehicle is your safest place to go.
