What is about
For the last few years, Pillow Fight Day has been held in numerous cities across the globe. It’s all about reclaiming the public space as a playground for all to enjoy. A free event intended to inspire giddy, childish joy in everyone.
This year will be bigger and better... so tell your friends, bring your own pillow and join the fun!

The rules of pillow fight:
1. Bring your own pillow
Use soft pillows only! Feathers are strongly encouraged.

2. Dress for the occasion
You may want to pick something playful to wear to the pillow fight.
If you have glasses, remove them. Fragile clothes are not recommended in general!

3. Get there in time
Try and get there at 16.40pm so you don't miss any of the fun!

4. Wait for the Siren.
It should sound when everyone has gathered at 17:00pm.
After it goes off, run screaming "piiiilllllooooow fiiiight"!

5. Do not swing your pillow too hard.
We play to have fun, not to hurt.

6. Do not hit anyone without a pillow.
This includes, but is not limited to, people with cameras, bystanders, police and other civic authorities, property eg. cars. Please use common sense.

7. Clean up after you
Bring a garbage bag and some gloves and help clean up some of the fluff/feathers/pillows. The environment will love you forever.

8. Tell your friends about the pillow fight.
Tell them to join in on the madness! And please brief them on the rules.
