An investigation is now underway into the death of the 26-year-old who died less than two hours after presenting to the hospital last Sunday at 1.30am.

The other four men were issued Court Attendance Notices for supplying a prohibited drug.
More than 130 people were treated by medical professionals at the venue, with numerous complaints suspected to relate to drug use and heat exhaustion.
At least 12 people were transported by NSW Ambulance paramedics to hospitals for further treatment relating to drug use, with seven requiring intubation.
