Hearing protection
Protect your ears during the festival with Alpine hearing protection. During a festival, going out or attending a concert, you run a high risk of permanent hearing damage. With the Alpine filter earplugs, you can continue to enjoy the music, but protect yourself from an annoying ringing in your ears. With the earplugs you hear the music and conversations still super good and protect your hearing. Come to the Alpine booth and buy the Alpine earplugs! Want to order online? You can do that at: https://www.alpinehearingprotection.com/
