Bummer. News broke today that, after some less than awesome incidences at last year's Ultra Music Festival , the event decided to outlaw a ton of raver-related gear and raise its age limit to 18+. 

Alongside the obvious banned items like drugs and weapons, things like totems, backpacks, glow sticks, stuffed animals, pacifiers and way more are now off limits to anyone trying to get through the gates. That's a pretty huge blow for the majority of the renowned fest's PLUR-leaning, rainbow-clad attendees. Looks like Ultra-bound ravers are going to have to get even more creative when outfitting themselves for the fest; we can't wait to see what they come up with this time around.
