It's been a long time coming, and we're so pleased it's finally here!
Check below for the itinerary and read through for more details.
Friday
4 - 7pm Arrivals & Set Up Camp
7 - 9pm BBQ in the field
9 - 10pm Drinks & World Beats
10 - 12am Tammi's Karaoke!
Welcome everyone! Set up your tents/vans, check into accommodation, look around Usk, open a gin tin, get settled in. ​
​
Make a B-line for that person you haven't seen in ages, shake your bee-hind to some world beats, play some field games and be merry.
BBQ in the field, we'll have vegan/veggie and meat BBQs fired up. If you'd like to eat with us please bring a little something to put on the BBQ and your own drinks for the night.
Kenver and Zoe need their beauty sleep, but you guys are beautiful enough. Party away to your heart's content, just remember to keep some beans for us.
Saturday
8 - 10.30am Brekkie & Ready
10.30 - 11.30am Get to the Castle
Wake up yo asses IT'S TODAY! WE CAN'T WAIT FOR NOW! Some breakfast items available if you're camping, please help yourself or bring something to share.
Whether you're camping in the field, or in other accommodation, please arrive at Usk Castle from 11.30am. You can walk from the field, which we'd recommend if you can, it takes 30-40 minutes and it's pleasant indeed. Wear good footwear (if you want to get fancy for the ceremony bring other shoes in a bag). There is some parking available at the Castle for those who need to drive.
12pm THE CEREMONY
Hurry, hurry, don't be late! It's the cute bit, whoop and cheer for love.
Drinks, food, Castle exploration and music. BRING UMBRELLA/COAT if it looks like rain.
5 - 6.30pm The Feast
A relaxed meal at the field. IMPORTANT: please bring your own plate, cutlery and drinking vessel. There will be some available for those staying elsewhere, but please don't assume we'll have enough. Kids will be served children's food - they don't need to stay at the table and can play in the field with adults keeping an eye on them. Get ready for some kind words (and probably some humiliation) of our Bride & Groom. Set up 4.00 to eat at 5pm.
6.30 - 8pm DJ Becky Blue
Coffee & Cockies
PARTY ARRIVAL TIME
Move over to the Smoky Tentacles stage to wake up and shake up! If you're a PARTY GUEST join us from now (or before if you want to get your camp set up earlier, we just can't give you a seat at the meal).
8.30pm Kenver & Zoe Play Chooneroonies
First dance! Ish...Join us to welcome the night in and watch us get down to our favourite choons together.
9 - 10.30pm Live Band
10.30 - 1am DJs
The Happily Ever Afters
Get on that dancefloor and wiggle around to Duncan Disorderly and the Scallywags!
Welcome to the party party! Owen Revell winds it up to get that late night feeling.
You know what to do, get around the fire and hug your mates. Acoustic and low level music allowed.
Sunday
Don't leave us yet! We love a festival Sunday! Gotta sqeeeeze all the time we can out of you. Book off Monday if you can! If you need to leave us that's fine too :)
11am Brekkie
The waft of bacon in the air, kids playing in the field, sore heads and grumbly good morning hugs. This is what it's all about. Don your fanciest pyjamas and comfiest garms and relax. You don't need to stay on site if you want to get out, this is your day. Enjoy it.
