Buses and Parking
Buses
Firstly, we want to apologize to those of you who had to wait for a bus after the 2011 event finished. We will have heaps more buses running this time, so your wait time will be way shorter, and we have sorted a safer and more comfortable boarding area, with well organized queuing. Bus tickets are available online with your ticket purchases, and you will enjoy preferential queuing.
Of course bus tickets will be available on site at our 'General Store' for those of you who decide at the last minute, but you will have to wait longer and pay a bit more than all those clever pre-sale peeps!!!
Show your ticket on entry for your return bus wristband.
Don't lose this, it will be your ticket home.

Parking is available on a paddock adjacent to the site on Littles Road at a cost of $30 per car if you purchase your ticket on line.
There is a limited number of spaces so if you want to secure the handiest parking space buy your tickets on line when you purchase your festival tickets. However they will be available to buy on line untill the 6th Feb 2013.
Otherwise pay more (cash only) on the day but please carpool and please arrive early.
Please follow signage on the day and take direction from the parking marshalls who will get you parked as quickly as possible.
Be aware of pedestrians too, especially after dark - there may be young kids around.
Please don’t drink and drive. Police will be breath testing in the area and we want to see you at the next festival so be safe !! And please respect the carpark alcohol ban, we will have security keeping an eye on things.
The carpark will be lit during the night and there will be security patrolling the carpark from start to finish, but even so, make sure you don't leave valuables in your cars.
Cars need to be removed by 5pm on Sunday 10th Feb or will be removed at your cost.
