Key Dates
The event build will commence on 19 June 2025 and derig will be completed by 10 July 2025.
Sound
Sound checks will take place on each of the event days prior to opening and may take place on Saturday 28 June and Friday 4 July. No sound checks will take place earlier than 10:00. Sound checks will not be at maximum event levels and although they may last over the period of an hour or two, tests will be carried out in short intervals.
Access
Outside of our main site, the community will still have access to the rest of the park, including the Brown & Green Café, Dinosaurs, and the National Sports Centre (NSC). Some routes through the park will temporarily be closed during our events, and signage will be posted in the park that identifies alternative routes. We are also working with the NSC to minimise impact and disruption to visitors on live event days.
Good Neighbours
We want to be good neighbours and have made arrangements for additional cleaning in the local area, both within the park and off-site, with additional litter pickers covering a wide range of roads and streets. We have also arranged for additional toilets to be deployed in prominent areas around the park and at main transport hubs and routes.
