Video / NZ HeraldA world-first law change allowing drug checking organisations to legally work at festivals checks into reality this New Year. Music festival organisers are also eager to protect their party goers and get drug checking services on site. Rhythm and Alps founder Alex Turnbull said they would not be having any drug testing on site but will be focusing on Covid compliance. "We are really gutted we are not able to offer the drug testing services but we will definitely see if it's changed for next year's festival." "This is why it is so important there's widespread access to drug checking services."
