THE BORING STUFF:

• NO alcohol allowed at Race Village or on the course. Boo. But at least you’ll be able to drive home.

• No pets, sorry! Even if they have their own headlamps.

• Feel free to bring your kids, but you’re responsible for their safety and dinner. We’ll have some headlamps for them to try running (on the field) in the dark, but we will charge $95 per hour if you leave them with us and wander off.

• The Race Village will close at 11.55pm. We appreciate your company, but we’ll be desperate to clean up the site and sleep through the weekend. KTVs are now open, you’ve got options!
