All ticket and camping sales are final (no refunds) unless you have a death in the family or other
emergency and cannot attend. Please call if you are requesting a refund under these circumstances.


In the event of the festival being cancelled, you will receive a complete refund of your admission tickets.
If you have made a deposit or full payment on a camping site, you may choose to leave your payment on
deposit which will ensure that you will receive your same campsite in the following year. You may
choose to request a refund of your camping payments instead, in which case, you will not retain your
reserved spot but may purchase camping the following from remaining available campsites.
