We are very excited to announce that Masoka Village is coming to Adelaide in November 2022. There are currently no restrictions for public events and gatherings in SA. If this changes, our event will necessarily operate under public health measures put in place by the South Australian Government.

Please select a FREE Child ticket per child (max 2 tickets per adult ticket holder). Additional children's tickets can be purchased at $10. Please select an Extra Child ticket for each additional child of age 12 years and under. Please note that all children are required to be ticketed, and accompanied by a ticketed adult!

Car parking is very limited. There is no parking available on site and little in adjacent residential streets; we therefore recommend that you carpool and park and walk from the CBD, take the bus, or share a cab / Uber with friends. The FREE city tram stops close to Rundle Park (at Botanic Gardens), so we recommend public transport. See this map of the city tram. You can read more information on the Free City Tram.

Each adult is entitled to bring up to two children for free; each child must have a ticket (see our Free Child or Extra Child tickets), and must be accompanied by an adult ticket holder. You might be asked to provide proof of age / ID upon checking in at the festival, so please make sure you buy the right ticket for your age range. See below.

Please come prepared! All Masoka Village box offices, vendors and stalls are cashless, accepting only card payment. Accepted cards are Visa, MasterCard, Diners, or pre-paid debit cards, processing EFTPOS and PayWave/PayPass. If you do not currently have or use a card, we encourage you to organise a pre-paid debit card before arriving at the festival. These can be easily obtained through many financial institutions, or in store via Australia Post.

Yes! Please note that you must make sure you scan OUT if you want to return to the festival, and scan IN again on the same day.

If you wish to bring a chair, only low-standing, beach-style chairs will be permitted. Those who want to remain standing for a performance must stand at the outer edges and rear of the audience areas. For majority of the performances, the audience will be asked by the stage MC to sit down and, in these cases, those who want to stand or dance will be asked to move to the outer edges and rear of the audience area. Please be aware that standing in front of a stage for any performance not designated as a "standing performance" is prohibited, as this will interfere with other patrons' experience of the performance. We are expecting thousands of people to attend the festival and it's an on-the-move crowd, so please understand that you can’t "reserve" a spot.

Absolutely not! Fundraising is not permitted by anyone on site. If you would like your organisation to have a presence at Masoka Village, please apply to hold a stall, or contact admin@masokavillage.com. Absolutely no flyering is permitted inside the festival grounds or outside the entrances, due to our obligation of care for Rundle Park / Kadlitpina and our zero waste-to-landfill targets. Masoka Village distribution of paper handouts is restricted to the official pocket-guide.

Masoka Village is a SMOKE FREE event, and this includes E-cigarettes. This is in keeping with the South Australian Government health regulations that ban smoking from all outdoor dining areas. If you wish to smoke, please step outside the festival gates to smoke, and then return. Cigarettes are not sold at Masoka Village.

If you have any suggestions or comments, email us at admin@masokavillage.com. During the festival itself, our friendly front of house staff, crowd care volunteers, or Info Booth staff will be able to direct any enquiries. Feedback forms can be found and submitted at the Info Booth.
