Can I bring my own food?

Yes, if you prefer to bring your own food and drink, then you can.

You can bring as much food as you like, but please only bring what you are sure you will actually eat. Most people tend to end up eating food from the amazing traders, even if they brought their own- so please be conscious of not wasting food.

What type of camping stove should I bring?

You will need to bring your own camping stove as these will not be provided at the cooking areas, but you will need to be certain that your camping stove meets the safety requirements.

Aerosol gas canisters are often used in low cost camping stoves which place the canister very close to the heat and flame, hence being a fire risk. This type of canister and stove are banned across Australia due to their increased fire risk

Electric hobs and hotplates require power outlets in order to work. As these facilities are not provided on site, these are not permitted.
