🏕️ Got a camping crew coming to Tara Festival?

If a few in your group haven’t locked in their campsite yet, consider this your friendly nudge to get everyone sorted. A few of the festival camping zones are starting to sell out, and to keep things fair for everyone, we’re not able to hold spaces for groups.

Make sure your whole crew is booked and ready to camp together!
