Camping at Summernats

No. Large appliances can overload the electricity supply and cause area-wide outages (and you will not be keeping those snags cold if that happens).

• Fridges are permitted if under 180L.
• Microwaves and air conditioners are not permitted.

Some sites have power, but not all. Please review the site description carefully before booking to check if power is included.

If your site does not have power, communal areas are available for charging phones. Please be considerate and do not hog the facilities.

Contact our camping staff and they will help you find a suitable area.

No. Generators are not permitted in any camping areas.

No. Under the Terms of Entry, fuel is not permitted onsite. A fuel depot is available within the venue.

Yes. Gas barbecues are permitted, and gas burners may also be used for cooking. If you are bringing a gas cylinder, it must be in date and under 9kg.

No. Open fires are not permitted. Our fire crew need to be at the burnout pad, not attending campsites.

Accessible shower and toilet facilities are located in Torque, Party Paddock and Ignition. Please note that some sites are not suitable for wheelchair access, particularly during wet weather.

If you require an accessible area, inform our camping crew when booking so that suitable arrangements can be made.
