Stoke Travel’s Common Sense Guide To Staying Safe

*If at any time you feel unsafe, please don’t hesitate to contact the onsite Noble Security team, or any member of the Stoke Travel crew.

As far as situations go, a Stoke Travel trip is amongst the safest. Unlike in the ‘real’ world, everybody here is intent on having a good time with new and old friends – your fellow Stokies are way more likely to hold your hair back while you puke than steal your wallet.

That being so, we’re more in danger of hurting ourselves while on a Stoke Travel trip than falling foul of our fellow travellers. Here’s a quick little guide to partying safe with Stoke Travel.

1. Drink plenty of water.
   You’re going to drink heaps of beer and sangria, and you’re going to have a plenty big hangover, but you can really limit it by smashing a few cups of water throughout the day and evening.
2. Remember to eat!
   We’re going to hook you up with a hearty bottomless brunch, and as the bare minimum that should keep your stomach lined and engine running. Do not skip these these meals, even if you are suffering horrifically from one of the aforementioned hangovers. We also strongly advise getting a lunch and dinner in there too, at the campsite restaurant or any of the many amazing bars and restaurants in town. Maybe even do this every day.
3. Zip your tent up when you’re in it and when you leave it.
   Seems basic, but you’d be surprised how often drunk us forgets to do this. When you get in your tent at night make sure you zip it up to prevent unexpected rain showers from disturbing your slumber. Same goes for when you leave your tent. It’ll take two seconds to zip it up, but that’ll save you from wet clothes, chafe, and maybe even pneumonia. If you also brought your favourite pair of socks and want to make sure they’re safe, you can purchase a lock from the guru tent for only €5. 
4. Don’t be a creep.
   Like, seriously, has that ever worked out for you? Similarly, if you see somebody being a creep and making people uncomfortable let us know and we’ll have a friendly word to them. Sometimes they just don’t realise how gross they are.
5. Only yes means yes, consent matters.
   At a very basic level if you hit on somebody and they say no then you’ve just got to cop that. They’re just not that into you. It sucks for about three seconds, but you’re literally surrounded by hundreds of young, like-minded travellers. Suck it up and move on. When you do find somebody who’s into you and you want to move through the bases, make sure you get consent. It really, really, really, really, really does matter.  
6. Leave the mixing to our DJs
   We have a zero-tolerance approach to drugs on our campsites – but if you do happen to be dipping into the bags or popping pills, don’t overdo it. View Tripsit’s resource here regarding mixing substances, and maybe give some of these harm reduction articles a geeze before you have to tackle the comedown in one of our shitty tents.
7. If you see somebody having a bad time, make sure they’re ok.
   We are all brothers and sisters and gender non-specific relations out here. If you see somebody struggling in any way, check on them, grab a Stoke staff member and just do what any decent human being would do. 

Staying safe at Stoke Travel is super easy, but sometimes we get a little out of control and forget the basics. If you ever find yourself in any kind of situation do not hesitate to contact Stoke staff, or security, and we’ll sort you out immediately. We’re here to help – help you have the best time possible. Mwah.

What to bring

• Your best party shirt
• Warm clothes (it can get a bit chilly at night)
• Portable phone charger
• ​A pillow if your backpack won’t do. ​
• Condoms (better safe than sorry, right?) 
• A towel (we don’t sell or rent them on-site) 
• Sunscreen! Looking like a lobster is only cute if you’re actually a lobster. 
• A water bottle to fill up. You’ll be saving the environment and staying hydrated all at the same time! How good!
