THE BIG EARLY

The best CarFest weekends start on Thursday.

The Big Early is your chance to start the CarFest weekend in the most relaxed, feel-good way possible! Arrive early, pitch up, and soak in the festival atmosphere in the campsites before the main arena opens.

More than just an early arrival

Thursday night comes with its own agenda. Exclusive entertainment, DJ battles, action-packed games, and some seriously good food, it's a full festival night in its own right. Think of it as the warm-up act that sets the tone for the whole weekend.

Pitch up at your own pace

Let's be honest, setting up camp can be hard work. Arriving a day early means you can take your time, bag the best spot in the campsite, and get settled in before the crowds arrive. No rushing. No fuss. Just you, your tent, and the festival ahead. Once you're set up and in the festival spirit, head over to The Big Early and let the weekend begin. Whether you're here for the cars, the stars, or the music, The Big Early is the perfect place to settle in, meet fellow CarFesters, and make new friends before the main event kicks off.

Start your CarFest weekend early and join us at The Big Early.
