The festival has a designated accessible camping area situated close to the entertainment precinct entrance available for season and overnight campers with disabilities. A small number of camping sites have access to power (for life support equipment only) and all have access to accessible shower and toilet facilities. These camping sites are limited and must be pre-booked using the following form.
We understand that equal access can sometimes mean being accompanied by a carer. Thus, we offer complimentary carer/companion tickets on an individual-needs basis.
To apply for a complimentary companion card ticket, please complete the form.
Please ensure that the person requiring a companion has purchased their festival ticket prior to completing this form.
We also welcome Assistance Animals and encourage you to register your Assistance Animal prior to attending the festival. To help us support you and your Assistance Animal on site, we have an application and registration process for Guide Dogs, Hearing Dogs and trained Assistance Animals to be allowed onto the festival site. Please pre-booked using the following form.
The answer is no. If you purchase tickets and then decide to volunteer, we will not refund your tickets – this is considered a ‘change of mind’. You would be responsible for selling it onto someone else.
We have a partnership with Tixel, a verified way to sell your ticket on to someone else if you can’t find anyone in your own networks to buy it off you. In 2019/20 we had an awful lot of surprise refunds that we technically didn’t have to do but we did because we didn’t want those volunteers to have a sour taste in their mouth after they just volunteered for us. It wasn’t great for our bottom line though as we had thought those tickets were sold and that money was to go back to the festival.
If you do buy a ticket and then apply to volunteer, please include this info in your application so we can remind you that it is your responsibility to sell your ticket on and that we won’t do a refund. We’d LOVE to be on the same page as you in understanding the fine print (that no one ever reads).
