  1. Using multinomial logistic regression analysis, the influence of the following factors on blood alcohol concentration (BAC) levels were investigated: age, gender, self-reported risky alcohol use according to AUDIT-C (cut-off 4 for women, 5 for men), ticket type (camping ticket vs. 4-day or 1-day ticket without camping), entering versus exiting the festival, and agreeing with statements S1 to S5 (n = 1318). BAC categories of 0% and ≥ 0.10% were compared with the reference category 0.001–0.09%. All shown independent variables are dichotomous except for age (continuous)
