2025 IMPORTANT CAMPING GUIDELINES

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO CAMPERS:
CAR-nival is about having fun so free camping is encouraged and permitted on Friday, Saturday and Sunday night. We ask you to be courteous and considerate to other 'campers', especially music and noise after 11pm.  Please take away everything you bring especially barbeques, broken chairs and tents - We send our thanks to the individual who in the past left us their burnt out generators, gazebo's and old tyres which cost the charities money to dispose of - every pound we spend is a pound less for the good causes!

Toilet facilities are provided but note that these are

NOT CHEMICAL TOILET DISPOSAL FACILITIES

Take it home with you!

We strongly recommend that you bring adequate provisions with you (Especially Water).
