Prevention

Prevention at the heart of Garorock! The festival is committed to welcoming prevention structures, where you can get information and pick up material !

The prevention teams will be out and about every day (maybe we'll come and say hello ourselves), at 3 different sites :
- outside the festival at the entrance (24 hours a day)
- in the heart of the campsite from 10am to 2am at the Info/Prevention Point
- in the concert area at the Info/Prevention Point (located between the Wonderland and Garonne stages)

Prevention for what ? Our speakers are here to talk to you, according to your needs and wishes, about health issues in the party environment : drug use, emotional and sexual life, road safety and amplified music. Open-minded, caring speakers trained in these subjects will be there to welcome you, with activities and games to play !

You'll also be able to pick up free prevention and risk-reduction tools : breathalysers, condoms, internal condoms (known as ‘female’ condoms), lubricants, earplugs, children's ear muffs, rouletapaille, rouletoncar, etc).
This year, we have been obliged to offer protective lenses (caps, lids, glass bonnets) only at cost price (no profit is made on this sale).

The organisations present were Addictions France, the Agence Régionale de Santé, Avenir Santé, CEID, the Prefecture's Intervenants Départementaux en Sécurité Routière (IDSR), Planning Familial and the Val de Garonne conurbation.
