There must be a clearway left on corners of streets to allow large emergency vehicles to clear access throughout the grounds and be aware of front of house with awnings, shutters etc. opening onto the street. Movement of large emergency vehicles is not to be hindered by the placement of Amusement rides, sideshow games, activities and sideshow novelties encroaching over boundary lines. Camping
No camping on grassed main arena, camping on the perimeter is fine.
Cattle Unloading and Parking
There will be a cattle unloading/cattle park area sited north of Multi-purpose pavilion with exit out to Williams Rd via Cattle gate. The area will be fenced off from sideshow area on hardstand during showtime. Access to hardstand via Gate 5 will
be available during bump-in Monday 3rd-Wednesday 5th October, but
please be aware we will be moving equipment into Multi-Purpose Pavilion
on those days as we cannot get in
the Multi-Purpose Pavilion to set-up
