Crowd Surfing & MoshingPits and crowd surfing are part of the Furnace Fest experience, and the whole thing works because people look out for each other. Before you jump in, know the risks and know that you’re taking them on yourself.

Know the risks
  • Moshing can mean bruises, cuts, sprains, or broken bones, especially when people come in at different sizes or someone gets hit before they’re ready.
  • Crowd surfers have almost no control once they’re up. You can get dropped, kicked, or separated from your group, and there’s no guarantee where the ride ends.
  • These activities can also hurt people who aren’t taking part. A surfer’s foot or a mosher breaking through the circle can catch a bystander who isn’t braced for it.
If you’re in it
  • Pick people up when they go down. That’s the deal.
  • Crowd surfers, aim toward the barricade so security can get you down safe.
  • Read the room. Not everyone next to you is up for contact.
If it’s not your thing
  • No pressure to participate. If a pit opens up or surfers start coming through and you’d rather not be in it, slide toward the edges or find a spot with more room.
  • Grab a staff or security member if you need help or you see someone in trouble.
The fine print: Taking part in crowd surfing and moshing is at your own risk. Furnace Fest, its organizers, and its partners are not responsible for any injury, loss, or damage that results from participating in or being near these activities. Look out for each other out there.

Furnace Fest is a rain or shine event, however, there are several instances in which the festival may be paused or evacuated due to inclement weather, including (but not limited to): severe thunderstorms, lightning in our festival radius, excessive wind, hail, flooding, or as directed by local emergency personnel. Our team is always monitoring weather conditions and consulting with specialists to ensure the safest event possible. In the event of inclement weather our team will be monitoring and sending out updates via text, stage video walls, and social media. We will have an inclement weather plan in place, if severe weather does impact the festival.
