Are you not a fan of camping? No worries, you can also go for our dormitory or bedroom options! Age Restriction: This event is for 18+ participants As much as we love the fact that everyone is welcome and feels included during our events, we have chosen to draw an age-line for this specific event. This edition will only be for 18+ participants. We want this event to be focused on you. We want you to rewind. We want you to enjoy and be careless. So we will be recharged again for our lovely little ones. Do you want to bring your children next time? We got you! Throughout the year we will organize more events that include children! Just keep an eye out for our upcoming events. Carpool: Let's share our driving costs and efforts! We are all about sharing, so why not share our driving costs and efforts?!
