COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL

All lead organizers must be on site before the arrival of guests. Medical must be on site and prepared before arrival of first guest.

GATE & PARKING

Gate should be set up and staffed by the time the first guest arrives; event must have a satisfactory parking and placement plan in place. Mendocino Magic is available for Gate and Parking needs for additional labor fee.

SOUND & NOISE

With respect to Mendocino County’s Sound Ordinance, all events must adhere to quiet hours 11pm-8am unless otherwise coordinated with cooperation with our community. Decibel meter reading no more than 50 dB from 50 feet away. Late night sound options include non-amplified music, acoustic performances, congregating in the lower central campground area only, or investing in a silent disco option.

LEAVE NO TRACE

Minimizing our impact to this environment is critical to long term use of this space. Any art installations must be pre-approved and unless otherwise coordinated must be completely cleared before conclusion of event and departure of organizers and guests. Communicating expectations for zero impact is the responsibility of event organizers. All events must completely handle waste and recycling before departure and will have LNT teams organized in advance. 

FIRE SAFETY

 We take Fire Safety very seriously at Mendocino Magic. There are no fires, charcoal grills, or open flames including candles, fine art, incense, etc allowed during fire season. Please see our fire safety guidelines for more info.
