Drugs and Alcohol:
There is a no-tolerance policy for drugs at this event. With the presence of fire throughout the festival grounds, our first priority is the safety of those working at and attending the event. Sales of drugs will result in immediate handover to civilian authorities. Alcohol will remain inside of 21+ serving areas, and no outside alcohol of any kind will be permitted on the premises.

Animals:
We love dogs! But not when things are on fire. Only trained service animals will be allowed at this event.

Safety & Security Protocols
Ejection Policy
For FUEL attendees: Anyone attending FUEL who is acting disruptive or hostile, and/or creating an unsafe condition will first be removed to the gate area. Fighting or arguing with Security Staff will result in immediate ejection. Audience will receive one warning about outside alcohol or contraband; no second warning will be issued.
For Staff: Staff of Fuel and Artists who miss scheduled activities due to inebriation or hangover, or who are found drinking during working hours will be asked to leave the premises for the rest of the weekend.
Anyone asked to leave the premises will not be allowed back any other day.
Fire Safety: A Hierarchy of "NO"
For each item and performance at Fuel, a number of people need to signal readiness before fire happens. For the main stage, for example, the Performers, Troupe Fire Safety, Fuel Fire Safety, Audience Safety and the Fire Marshall must all show green on their placards before a troupe can light up. This means that one shouting audience member will delay the entire show while Safeties scramble to find out what is going on! Please keep in mind the number of people standing around you who may call an immediate halt to the proceedings when making disruptions of any kind. Medical Support Staff will be provided on site.
