FM4 Frequency 2019 has finished. Thousands of people arrived to Sankt Pölten and pitched their tents along the river Traisen this year. Friendly advice: if you’re considering going to FM4 Frequency in 2020, you need to stay at the campsite. This is why.
Camping at FM4 Frequency really is an experience. These are the most interesting things that we encountered along the river this year.
Beer pong in the water
This game is known by people all over the world. Beer pong is usually played at parties on a dry surface, but have you ever tried to play it in the cold water? If not, you have to try, especially during the hot days.
Raving between the tents
A break between the concerts, or maybe you’re just trying to get in the mood? Just organise a party among the tents. The more people, the better! Go crazy like no one is watching, just dance!
Flunkyball
FM4 Frequency loves flunkyball. During the festival, there even are official Flunkyball Championships. But as they say, practice makes perfect, so get your friends together or challenge the neighbours! In every possible spot at the campsite, there are lots of players trying to drink beer as fast as possible. They are competitive, but also friendly. Don’t worry, grab a beer and join them.
Relaxing in the water
If you want to find a good spot in the river, you need to get up really early. At 11am, many people have already placed their chairs in every inch of the water. They are just hanging out, drinking, but also playing volleyball.
Waking up to Austrian music
Every morning, these guys played a curated variety of Austrian music. Nothing better than some banging tunes to help you get up easily. It’s also nice to listen to while eating breakfast and preparing for the upcoming day.
