The Camp The camp dates from 040724-040803. You should arrive during saturday 24th of july. 8 volunteers will participate. During the camp there will be members of LUNA musikförening also working with the arrangement. The association has about 20 active members.

The Story Tipifesten started off as a small party with some friends and musicians in the summer of 1999. Tipifesten has since then grown to a two days outdoor music, fi lm and theatre festival. Last year the festival had slightly more than 1000 visitors with a good mix of people from kids to old ones. Some of the visitors stay in tents over night, others are people from the area just visiting over the day. Last summer 13 Bands played on the stage and even more entertained on the open, unplugged stage. A couple of theatre groups entertained and a fi lm tent showed movies almost non stop. This year there will hopefully be even more theatre shows and other preformances as well as the music and fi lms. The Aims The purpose of the camp is to combine the local rural character of the tipifesten with an international perspectiv. Most members of LUNA musikförening are born or live in the area. Many of the visitors are also from the area, or close by. Through the camp, we can share the experience of building up an cultural association by small means. We can share the experience of organize a festival in a fi eld with no permanent modern facilities. You will help us out with mostly practical matter and share our experiences. Hopefully we will learn from each other, but fi rst and foremost the purpose is to meet new people, socialize, enjoy and have fun, by working together.

The Work Work, before the festival will include preparing the area. There is no electricity, no water, no kitchen only some wooden buildings like the stage, a bar, a couple of toilets and the tipi. The area has more or less to be built up from scratch. Food has to be prepared for selling during the arrangement. Work, during the festival will be siting in the entrance and meeting the visitors, selling drinks and food, keep the area tidy and help out where ever a hand is needed. Work, after the festival will be to tidy up the fi eld and restore it to its former condition. Work hours will be irregular, some days long and hard. But there will always be time for a break or maybe an excursion in the near by surroundings.

What to bring? You must bring sleeping bag, robust cloth and shoes. If you play any instrument it would be nice if you bring that, or if you give preformances in any way, bring the equipment for that. If you have any fi lms you have done your self or friends of ours have done, that you want to show bring them as well. That way you can be part of the entertainment.

Practical matters Accommodation will be in tents. If you wish privacy bring your own tent. There will be beds in tents shared with others. The area is not accessible for wheel chairs. Volunteers with children are welcome. The camp will be in english. Vegetarian food will be cooked together.

How to get there? Find your way to Helsingborg. The easiest way to get to Helsingborg is by train from Malmö or by boat from Helsingör, Denmark. From Helsingborg you can buy one bus ticket to Svanshall, where the nearest bus stop is. The bus trip from Helsingborg to Svanshall takes about one hour.

Take bus 219 or 220 from Helsingborg to Höganäs ”Stadshuset”, end station. Change bus in Höganäs to 223 (Jonstorp), 224 (), or 225 (Jonstorp). If you take the bus 225, which is most frequent, you must change bus again in Jonstorp to bus 223 (Höganäs). Jump of after a few minutes at Svanshall ”Handelsmansvägen”. Buss 223 and 224 goes straight to Svanshall ”Handelsmansvägen”.

From the bus stop it is just a fi ve minutes walk to the fi eld. If you have the sea in your back there is an small road straight ahead, follow that. After a little hill the road turns sharp right, then you are very close, a couple of hundred meters and you will see the fi eld on your right hand side.

Looking forward to meet you! LUNA musikförening
