In the past this flexibility has worked well.There is plenty of free entertainment all around the town at pubs and venues, you do not need to attend any additional ticketed event. There is always someone great to see. Often the big stars will do a 'pop' up FREE performance on the Toyota Stand or FanZone and we will always make time in the itinerary to attend these free performances.There is also the cavalcade down the main street on Saturday and several popular landmarks to visit like the Hands of Fame and the giant Golden Guitar, Museum.For those that like Silo Art, there is a short hike and lookout to see and photograph Tamworths Silo art Installation.The whole 5 days we are there it is action packed, we are never bored!<h3> </h3><h3>SAFETY</h3>We will carry appropriate safety gear for this trip.<ul><li>Extensive first aid kit, rescue plan, iperb beacon, UHF two-way radios.</li><li>We will supply bulk natural spring water during the trip at base camp.</li><li>Please advise us of any medical issues before the trip that we should know about if you need medical attention.</li></ul><h3> </h3><h3>WHAT TO BRING</h3>We will send you a packing list following your booking.<h3> </h3><h3>COSTS</h3>TOUR TICKET<ul><li>Twin Share Tent Accommodation, Transport, Meals, Campsite, Festival Chauffeur Service, Gig Guide, Tamworth Tourist Highlights Tour, Casey Barnes, BushPoets Breakfast = $1595</li><li>Single Supplement: If you would like your own tent the cost is $1750 (note: single tents are not Bell Tents - they are standard tents.
