PLAN AHEAD
We recommend that you plan well ahead how to get to and from the festival. There are a range of transport options, including buses.
BY CAR
Busselton is located approximately 3 hours drive south of Perth, Western Australia.
The festival will be held at Sir Stewart Bovell Park, Busselton, which is located on the corner of Vasse Highway and Bussel Highway.
If you are arriving by car, please follow the signs to the entry gates.
Want to car pool?
This year Sunset Events has teamed up with FestivalBudi, part of the worlds most successful carpooling scheme. In a first for an Australian musical festival, people travelling to this year’s event will be able to use the FestivalBudi website to find someone to share their drive with. The scheme has proved hugely successful in Europe, with festivals like Glastonbury having used the scheme for several years, and we hope you like it too.

Drink driving - Please, please don't drink and drive! We want you to enjoy yourself and to get home safely. Take a bus, get dropped off or arrange a skipper, but please don't drive to the festival if you are planning to drink. Remember you can camp at the festival and avoid any dramas.
PARKING
If you are driving to the festival, parking is available FREE on the farm next to Sir Stewart Bovell Park.
Parking on the verge of either Vasse or Bussell Highways or in any of the surrounding streets is prohibited and may attract a hefty fine from the local ranger.
There will also be bicycle parking available outside the main gates for the locals who prefer to ride their bikes.
FESTIVAL BUSES (from Towns outside Busselton)
If you are travelling from out of town to Busselton, buses will be organised to get you to the Festival. Bus tickets are limited and must be pre-purchased.
