Camp Site Allowances
The number of vehicles allowed on a camp site depends on the ‘Class’ of camp site you’ve purchased. Read your camp site description carefully.
| Camp Site Name | Camp Site Size | Number of Vehicles Allowed |
|---|---|---|
| Class A* | 4m x 4m | 0 - No vehicles are permitted |
| Class B | 6m x 6m | 1 Vehicle |
| Class C | 8m x 6m | 2 Vehicles |
| Class D | 12m x 6m | 2 Vehicle |
* No vehicles at all are allowed on the Class A camp sites. If you’re coming in a vehicle, you will have to purchase an Overflow Car Park Ticket for EAGLE Campground Overflow Car Park.
Camping Overflow Car Parking
Each Campground has an Overflow Car Park
If your group has more vehicles than you’re allowed on your camp site, each additional vehicle requires an Overflow Car Park Ticket for the Campground you’re staying in. For e.g., if you’re camping in ACE, your extra Vehicles need to be parked in the ACE Overflow Car Park.
Pre-purchase these tickets via AXS. Once Camping Overflow Parking tickets are sold out, alternative parking must be arranged (off-site and bus in, rideshare or carpool with friends).
- You must have pre-purchased a Campground Overflow Car Parking ticket for the Campground you’re staying in.
- You will need to drive in through the Campground Entry processing gates to have your ticket scanned.
- You can drop off your belongings at your camp site then head directly to the Overflow Carpark to your vehicle.
- Once your vehicle is parked, it can't be moved again until the end of the Festival during the approved departure time windows.
- Once Overflow Parking Tickets sell out, you'll need to arrange alternative parking - this may include parking off site and catching a Festival bus or coordinating with friends to arrive in one vehicle.
All bus tickets must be pre-purchased via AXS and are valid only with a Festival Ticket.
