Several big summer music festivals will not have drug testing this year, according to New Zealand's main drug checking agency for events. KnowYourStuffNZ has confirmed seven upcoming festivals - which they had previously attended - had declined their services. Rhythm and Alps general manager Harry Gorringe says they're expecting about 10,000 people each day. He says it's a shame there'll be no testing - but they'll be working to make it as safe as possible. "We have medical staff, security staff, police on site to maintain and watch the intoxication levels of patrons." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
