It will be full, but in an amazing way. There will be enough space for everyone. Village Camp is also back which gives us more room onsite for every single one of you wonderful human beings.
Please always listen to our amazing traffic crew. Camping areas around BUK Corner will open first, once they are full the nearest ones are coming next. And so on. There will be a gathering & waiting area at our Food Court to make everything smooth, cozy and comfortable.
