All participants need a Gymnastics Federation license and a participant pass for the event. This applies to everyone: recreational participants, competitors, performers, instructors, coaches, choreographers, team leaders, etc. Judges receive a pass for the day(s) they officiate. If a judge participates in the event in another role, such as a leader or coach, a participant pass must also be purchased for that role.

The competition fee is included in the participant pass (this also applies to Finnish Championships competitions).

Those who have purchased a participant pass may also pre-purchase meals and school accommodation (school accommodation is not recommended for children under 2 years of age).

Each participant is personally responsible for their own insurance coverage.
