Wot Doin is a great weekend on our beautiful property 20 minutes north of Bulahdelah. The vibe is warm, friendly, and delightfully rustic with everybody connected in some way. Most people stay on site in tents, vans, cars, or swags. Camp sites will be on a 'first-in, first-choice' basis. Bringing your own water is recommended as there is only limited water available (and it's a long walk from where you will be camping), and you can't have too many torches. Camp stove, kettle, and cooking implements along with lightweight camping chairs are a good idea. Arriving early is also a good idea. The music starts at 11:00 am on Saturday. There is limited mobile reception. The usual principles of leave no trace apply. Bring everything you need - leave nothing behind. It's a manicured rural property so sorry, no pets or open fires. Some people choose to stay in nearby accommodation which you'll find online - search "Upper Myall". ___________________________________________________________________ DIRECTIONS Will be provided after booking and on the Wot Doin 6 Facebook Page. ___________________________________________________________________ TICKETS For ten years now performers have supported Wot Doin as a no-worries, good-fun party with "stump up" paddock donations being passed on to the working musos - and it's been brilliant. But Covid was tough on the arts, so we want to step up and help by ensuring that we look after the amazing musicians who make Wot Doin so great. This time you pay for your camping spot or day visit and the funds go to the performers. And the performances are going to blow your mind. CAMPING TICKET (all weekend) Adult Tickets (18 years and over) - $50per adult plus $50 per car Kids 17 + under (accompanied by an adult) are FREE OF CHARGE.

Wot Doin 7 - Tuggin Hill

Wot Doin is a great weekend on our beautiful property 20 minutes north of Bulahdelah. The vibe is warm, friendly, and delightfully rustic with everybody connected in some way. Most people stay on site in tents, vans, cars, or swags. Camp sites will be on a 'first-in, first-choice' basis. Bringing your own water is recommended as there is only limited water available (and it's a long walk from where you will be camping), and you can't have too many torches. Camp stove, kettle, and cooking implements along with lightweight camping chairs are a good idea. Arriving early is also a good idea. The music starts at 11:00 am on Saturday. There is limited mobile reception. The usual principles of leave no trace apply. Bring everything you need - leave nothing behind. It's a manicured rural property so sorry, no pets or open fires. Some people choose to stay in nearby accommodation which you'll find online - search "Upper Myall". ___________________________________________________________________ DIRECTIONS Will be provided after booking and on the Wot Doin 6 Facebook Page. ___________________________________________________________________ TICKETS For ten years now performers have supported Wot Doin as a no-worries, good-fun party with "stump up" paddock donations being passed on to the working musos - and it's been brilliant. But Covid was tough on the arts, so we want to step up and help by ensuring that we look after the amazing musicians who make Wot Doin so great. This time you pay for your camping spot or day visit and the funds go to the performers. And the performances are going to blow your mind. CAMPING TICKET (all weekend) Adult Tickets (18 years and over) - $50per adult plus $50 per car Kids 17 + under (accompanied by an adult) are FREE OF CHARGE. DAY TICKET (Saturday) Adult Tickets (18 years and over) - $50 per adult Kids 17 + under (accompanied by an adult) are FREE OF CHARGE. **NOTE** The HipCamp site indicates that children are 12+under. Please DISREGARD the age indicated on HipCamp Site and advise how many kids (17+under) will be joining you. Note: Above prices do not include HipCamp payment fees
