Organisers have made improvements to the Splendour site since the last event that will make for a more comfortable experience for everyone, no matter the weather. They’ve improved the access to and around the Amphitheatre and other venues, with better quality and additional pathways, and we’ve dug deep on the drainage. They’ve also changed up the camping!
In 2016 there will be new camping choices available including the option to camp with your vehicle. The camping area closest to the event site will still be sans cars but we’re all about options. For the time being you only need to purchase your event and camping ticket. You’ll be able to choose where you park your rig when vehicle passes are released on Monday 30th May.
Onsite camping is available for up to five nights - with early entry into the campgrounds available from Wednesday 20th July - so bunk in for an easy and affordable way to experience Splendour. Feel like treating yourself? Travel light and book yourself into Tepee Love, Flash Camp, Tent City or Byron Bay Camping Hire. Kids in tow? The Meadow, our family friendly campground will also return in 2016.
Remember you will need to purchase a vehicle pass for the day you want to arrive, available Monday 30th May. You can find more information about camping and vehicle passes at Splendour in the Grass.
