Tickets & Check-in

How to collect your entry armband.

We need your support, please buy your armband for entry.

Available online or from the Info Desk at the front of Nimbin Town Hall all MardiGrass weekend.

MardiGrass has always been about trust but it doesn’t happen all by itself. Months of preparation and ground work go into the weekend so the village as a whole benefits as well as the thousands of visitors. We’d like it to happen in such a way that everyone who attends it has an uplifting experience. Accordingly, MardiGrass asks that everyone understands the critical importance of buying armbands. Without you buying armbands we are history. Some businesses even give preferential service to armband wearers and we support that. We need your support. Please buy one!!

Camping passes are per-person, NOT per-vehicle or per-tent.

To collect your armband and claim a camping spot:

  • Go to the Nimbin Showgrounds at 33 Cecil Street, Nimbin.
  • Identify yourself with your PayPal receipt. (Printed copy or on your phone)
  • Or show identification (eg driver’s licence etc) in the name of the purchaser.

To collect your event armband:

  • Go to the Nimbin Town Hall at Cullen Street, Nimbin.
  • Identify yourself with your PayPal receipt. (Printed copy or on your phone)
  • Or show identification (eg driver’s licence etc) in the name of the purchaser.

During Mardigrass, there are $30 Day Tickets available from the Information Desk at the front of the Nimbin Town Hall.  Day Tickets are not pre-sold online, and are only available in-person in Nimbin.

From Monday 29 April, locals may purchase $30 MardiGrass armbands from the Nimbin Hemp Embassy, or from the Town Hall Info Desk over the MardiGrass weekend. For our purpose, the definition of “local” is the 2480 post code.  These tickets are not pre-sold online, and are only available in-person in Nimbin.

Camping at Nimbin Showgrounds

Camping bookings are per person, not per vehicle or per tent.

Camping is also available at the Nimbin Showgrounds, before and after MardiGrass.

Children twelve years and under are FREE for both camping and entry to MardiGrass.

We do ask that campers arrive before dark to ensure the safety of themselves and other campers when setting up.

Camping only in designated areas. There are three camping areas set aside:

  1. Quiet area
  2. Reasonably noisy area
  3. Family area

Keep your space clean and tidy – garbage bags provided.

Bring your own campervan, caravan or tent.
There are a small number of powered sites – first come, first served!

Camping is also available before and after MardiGrass. Book with Nimbin Showgrounds.

Facilities include powered and non-powered sites, a camp kitchen (refrigerator, microwave, kettle, sink, and free electric barbecue), toilets, hot showers, and a rotary clothesline. We also have a dedicated dump point for the benefit of motorhome operators.
Please keep noise in camping areas to a respectable level – be considerate of your neighbours.
