UNTOLD Festival will offer free HPV (human papillomavirus) testing and breast ultrasounds to all wristband-holders at its 2026 edition, marking the first time a European music festival has integrated on-site cancer screening services.
The mobile health unit, operated by the Renaşterea Foundation, will be stationed near the festival grounds in Cluj-Napoca, Romania during the event, which runs from 6 to 9 August. The foundation has delivered complimentary medical testing and education across Romania for over 20 years, providing more than 40,000 health investigations including mammograms and Pap screenings.
“We want to bring access to prevention closer to the female audience, through free HPV testing and free mammograms, in a space where they feel connected, safe and part of a community,” said Ioana Chereji, Head of Communication at UNTOLD Universe. “We believe that the magic of UNTOLD also means care, awareness, concrete steps for a state of well-being and most importantly, health…”
“It is the first time that cancer prevention reaches the heart of a music festival, and for the Renaşterea Foundation it is a truly historic moment,” added Mihaela Geoană, President of the Renașterea Foundation. “Health must be accessible wherever people live experiences that bring them together, and a festival is the place where we can reach the young audience.”
The 11th edition of UNTOLD Festival will take place at the Cluj Arena, with a lineup that includes:
- Afrojack b2b R3HAB
- Alan Walker
- Sara Landry
- Flo Rida
- Zara Larsson
- Kygo
