Pre-event camping is only available for holders of a Weekend Camping Pass (purchased in advance via Ticketsource) for the following weekend's ADVENTURE OVERLAND & CAMPERVAN SHOW.
Pre-event camping is possible from 13:00 on any day from Monday to Thursday.
Weekend Camping Pass covers the holder for up to 3 nights Friday to Sunday.
NOTE: Due to safety reasons, please be aware that due to safety reasons, the Camping Gate closes at 19:00 each evening.
Thereafter a temporary 'Overnight Holding Area' operates from 19:00 to 09:00 the following morning.
In effect this means that if you arrive at the venue when the gate is closed, you can still 'get into the venue', camp and avail yourself of all the facilities (e.g. toilets, showers, drinking water, laundry, chemical waste points, etc.), plus access to the Night Market Fri & Sat nights, entertainment in the "Severn Cider Beer Tent" with live music Fri, Sat & Sun nights, plus hot food from the catering outlets up until 23:00 Fri & Sat. In the morning simply go to Check-in located in the racecourse's Touring Park to have your pre-paid E-tickets scanned, collect your wristbands, then drive to the designated campsite safely in daylight.
Basically, the Overnight Holding Area is one side of a locked, security-controlled gate, the Showground and regular campsite the other, with pedestrian 24 hr access between the two areas.
It is solely because we staff the security gate 24 hours a day that enables us as organisers to legally fulfil Health & Safety requirements, thus keeping our Public Liability Insurance valid and our campers safe and secure.
NOTE: To avoid potential queues, campers are advised to arrive before the rush on Friday as it's always busy!
