Other RODEO FAQ's
Please see our other list of Rodeo FAQ's if we haven't answered your questions yet!
General Info/Housekeeping
Parking
This year is free of charge.
Leave your car at your own risk. We will not be responsible for any lost or stolen goods.
As we have limited space available for Saturday parking, we recommend people carpool. Not only does this allow more space for other punters, but it's better for the environment.
Cup Charge
As this is a 100% glass free event, we will have our reusable keep cups available. This is your cup to keep, and if you lose the cup, you will need to buy a new one.
If you don't want to fork out the $3, we understand! We will have plenty of can options at our bars.
Refund Policy
We will be accepting 100% refunds until Wednesday 28th Jan. After this cut off date, tickets will need to be sold via Tixel - Metricup Rodeo Tixel Site
If you have a friend wanting to take over your ticket, name changes are not necessary. Unless the ticket is a concession or children's ticket.
Under 18's
Anyone under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian at all times. This includes the Kids Play area.
Emergency Muster Points
Please see map attached and familiarize yourself with Muster Points in the unlikely event of evacuation.
