The Pitch Music & Arts festival grounds are located on flat terrain, with a mix of grassed and dirt areas. 

The site is a working farm for the remainder of the year and with this comes intricacies with the land which may prove to be difficult to navigate at times. Please note, Pitch may be challenging to navigate at times for those with a mobility disability or impairment, especially in harsh weather conditions.

We will have an Accessible Campground. Here, you’ll be in a prime location, close to the main arena  and with important amenities including accessible toilets and accessible showers in the campgrounds.

During the ticket-purchasing pipeline, you may purchase an Accessible ticket to Pitch Music & Arts. After completing your purchase, you will be sent a form that allows you to nominate whether you and a friend would like to camp in the Accessible campsite. The form allows our team to accommodate you in this space. 

The Main Arena will also have accessible toilets which will be available at any point throughout the festival.
