Accessibility
A wide, lit, sand-surfaced path with benches runs through the centre of the park. There is a public toilet at Teatteriesplanadi, but its door is heavy and the entrance has thresholds. The event's exact spot, crowd arrangements and moving around with a stroller have not been separately confirmed.
