How do I get transport from the showground to the Standing Stones?

The showgrounds are situated between the two main event locations of the festival, the Australian Standing Stones and Grey Street (Glen Innes main street).  Transportation to either is as follows;

  • Walking to either location is around  15 minutes,  the walk to the standing stones is quite steep and not recommended for the elderly.
  • Bus on the Saturday and Sunday of the festival, the festival bus will pick up passengers from the Visitor Information Centre and go via the Bourke Street entry of the showgrounds to pick up campers and drop off at the Standing Stones site for a gold coin donation.  You must have purchased your entry wristband passes to the site to be able to get on the bus.  This bus continously goes to the festival site and back to the Visitor Informaiton Centre Saturday and Sunday from 9am to 3.30pm.
