If it rains do I get my money back?
The event will go ahead rain, hail or shine.

My dog loves the Presets. Can I bring him along?
Sorry, but no. We aren't allowed to have animals at the event. If you are lucky you might catch a few trotters training on the track next door.

Will there be an ATM on site?
There will be a couple of ATMs in the bar area, but it would be better to get organised before you enter the showground. Make sure you bring plenty of cash for food, drinks and merch.

Can I bring along my own food?
