MQ FEST

MQ Tribe is an inclusive community that welcomes everyone with openness and respect. Our gatherings are guided by five core principles:

Be Real, Be Kind — act with honesty, integrity, and compassion;

Give with Love — share freely while honoring consent and mutual respect;

Flow & Participate — engage fully and contribute to the collective experience;

Take Responsibility — care for your own wellbeing, that of others, and the space we share;

Honor the Earth — tread lightly, minimize waste, and protect the natural environment.

If anything feels out of alignment, please speak with an organizer — we are here to listen and respond with fairness and care.

Of course! We are the friendliest and most welcoming people you will ever meet. MQ Fest is designed to enable a deeper connection no matter if you come solo or with your friends.

No. Plant-based meals, snacks, and drinks will be available for purchase on-site from 10:00–22:00. Ideal to bring re-fillable bottles for water and hot drinks.

Alcohol*

MQ Tribe events are alcohol-free. Alcohol is not sold at the venue and you are not allowed to bring your own drink. There are plenty of places outside of MQ where you can enjoy an alcoholic drink, but we feel that the ethos of MQ is best enjoyed sober.

Yes, parking is available at the venue for 1€. If this is full, you can park on the road from Ronda to Benaojan and walk. Just be mindful to park carefully and do so at your own risk. We will also be encouraging car pooling and helping to connect people who can offer and require a ride. Please be sure to check emails and the MQ Fest whatsapp group.

This edition of MQ Fest is a day event only, ending at midnight. Accommodation nearby is available — we recommend booking early in Ronda or surrounding areas.

This edition of MQ Fest is primarily designed for adults (16+).

We love animals but for this one day we are keeping it a dog free event too.

Tickets are non-refundable but are transferable to another approved guest. Contact us with the new attendee’s details if you cannot attend.

MQ Fest is a substance-free event. Alcohol and synthetic drugs are not permitted on site. Certain workshops may involve ceremonial & non-psychdelic plant medicines (e.g., cacao or hape) — these are optional and guided by experienced facilitators.

Comfortable clothing for movement, swimwear for the river/pool/sauna, a towel, yoga mat, cushion, warm layers for the evening, a reusable water bottle, and an open heart. Please bring extra cash for ease, as many of the marketplace stalls would prefer it.

Our core principle, is leave no trace! So try your best to bring reusable containers for food and drink to cut down waste.

MQ is all about giving back and building community. During the event we will announce local charities we will be supporting with a proportion of the proceeds.

Consent isn't just about intimacy. It is about respecting another person's boundaries.

Consent must be clear, enthusiastic, informed, and freely given. If it’s not a clear “yes,” it’s a no.

Everyone deserves to feel safe and respected in all interactions, from hugs and photos to shared food or experiences.

We look out for one another and if you see someone uncomfortable or unsafe, step in or find support.

We do not tolerate harassment, non-consensual contact, or drug-related harm.

Stay aware, stay kind, and help us create a festival space that is defined by freedom, respect, and care.
