Aunty Jenny's Tent City Campground - Book Now!
This Is Not Art has set up a temporary Campground to provide festival goers with the cheapest accommodation option for the festival - $10 per person per night, open on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights. The Campground is for those in tents, swags, vans and trucks, or those who wanted to sleep under the stars.
So, if you were unsure whether you could afford to stay for the whole five days of the festival - we've just answered your question! Other budget accommodation options in Newcastle usually book out over the festival period – but you can guarantee yourself a place to sleep by booking into Tent City – there is room for up to 500 people.
Its lo-fi and BYO everything, but Aunty Jenny and her team of lovely volunteers will do their best to make it feel like your home away from home – hot showers, cups of tea, and happy campers all around!
This year the Campground is located just a short distance outside of the Newcastle city centre at a new location – Adamstown Oval. It was chosen for its excellent amenities, its secure and safe grounds, and its proximity to shops and public transport. It is approx 25 minutes bicycle ride, 15-20 minutes on a public bus and 10 minutes by car/cab to the Festival Club.
Aunty Jenny is so excited to be hosting the Campground again this year, and looks forward to meeting you to make it another awesome Tent City.
