With a Disability

DISABILITY CAMPING, DROP-OFF & PARKING

• People with a disability wanting to camp in the disability area need to register. This enables us to plan the size of the disability camping area and toilets and to assist you as much as possible.

• Vehicles with a government-issued disability parking permit can camp in the disability camping area that is approximately 200m from the concert seating area.

• If camped in the disability camping area you will be issued with a Transit Permit to allow you to drop off passengers at the concert area disability access gate (south side of the stage) and return to park at your camp or the disability parking area (no parking permitted at the drop off area). If the driver has a disability permit for mobility reasons contact us and we’ll work out a solution.

ACCESSIBLE PATHWAYS

• The surface of the ground at the camping area and the pathways that lead to the concert area is sandy and can be rough under foot. There are occasional depressions and holes where the lake bed has dried out and cracked.
• Due to the nature of the site at this remote area we are unable to provide surfaces and pathways that meet the disability standards you might find in city areas.

• Hard flooring runs from disability parking to the dedicated concert seating area to assist wheelchair users.

FACILITIES

• A disability seating area will be defined just inside the concert area near the disability access gate to minimise the distance between drop off and seating location. Only patrons who have been issued a disability wristband are allowed to use this area, and you can have up to four others sitting with you. If you want to sit with more than four people, you can use the general seating area.

• An accessible toilet will be approximately 20m from the disability seating area.

CAMPING WITH A GROUP

• Campers in the disability camping area are allowed one additional vehicle with friends or family (without a disability permit) to camp with them.

• People with a disability in larger groups are welcome to camp with their friends in the general camping area however it could be up to 700m away from the concert seating area. If someone with a disability chooses not to camp in the disability area they will not be issued a TRANSIT PERMIT and WILL NOT BE PERMITTED to drive around the campground for any reason. Any disability permit holders with restricted mobility are encouraged to camp in the disability camping area.

• If you choose not to camp in the disability camping area, your best chance to camp close to the concert area is to buy an Early Entry Vehicle Pass which allows access to the campground one or two days earlier than general campers.
