Warning issued to Electric Picnic attendees as organisers ban disposable vapes

Officials said they made the decision to ban the items to “protect the land the festival site is on”.They added: “Disposable vapes are made of a mixed compound of materials making them very difficult to recycle and hazardous if not placed in the correct waste stream.“Please do not bring single-use disposable vapes as they may be confiscated on entry.”

A number of people have praised organisers for banning the devices from the festival grounds, with one person on social media saying: "Love to see this. Outright ban can't come quickly enough."However others have criticised the move, saying that it should not be up to organisers to decide whether people can use single-use vapes or not.
