STRICT VEHICLE ACCESS CONTROL
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
VAP *Vehicle Access Passes* are ONLY sold to guests in the above 4-Buddy packs and only ONE CAR per "4-Buddy + 1-VAP" is permitted to enter inner venue parking with required sticker. Provided there's space for vehicles arriving earlier we will have a "limited" amount of VAP's available to sell from Friday at the Gate. N.B. Once these are all Sold Out no more vehichles will be allowed into inner venue, spaces left are provisioned for DJ's and VIP's arriving at all times.

Please understand our reasoning behind the strict vehicle access control is that we're trying to reduce the potential risk of injury as well as increase camping space within the venue for all guests.

B&B Accomodation Available in the Ashburton Area, only 5km / 10mins max drive from Venue.
