What can I bring 

Pack your excitement and a good appetite! While we've got some fantastic food and drink vendors lined up, you're more than welcome to bring extra snacks and even a picnic if you fancy.
To ensure your comfort, feel free to bring your own chairs and blankets and set up in front of our massive screen for the perfect viewing experience – just leave the gazebos at home, please.
Safety first! We've got security on hand to make sure everyone has a blast securely. They'll be doing a quick bag check at the entrance, so you can relax and enjoy the soapbox madness worry-free.

Dogs

We love dogs and have our very own Krazy Dog and our Doggy Pit Area on hand during the day.  Yes you can bring a well behaved dog and they have to be kept on the lead.  Please be aware it is noisy and can be busy we don't want them getting scared. 🐕🐾

See you there! 💜🏁
