GETTING THERE

Getting To The Barracks is Simple

There are many ways to get to the event, in the incredible North Head sanctuary, just up the hill from Manly CBD.

The best ways to get there are:

  • Our dedicated event shuttle from Manly CBD, that you can prebook here
  • Rideshare & taxi
  • On foot or bike
  • By car to St. Pauls High School then walk 600m to the event site. Book limited spaces here
  • Detailed list of options below

We would like to remind guests to consider the environment, local residents, and particularly wildlife that live in the area, for this reason please don’t attempt to drive up into the site, as we want to avoid additional cars moving up and down Darley Road as much as possible.

The best way to get into the event site is to walk (20 mins from Manly CBD uphill) or get our dedicated shuttle, that you can prebook through here. There are limited parking spaces also available at St.Pauls again, these must be booked in advance.

There is a dedicated Rideshare and Taxi drop off/pick up point but please consider traffic when route planning. Full list of options below.

BY FOOT OR BIKE

The event site is accessible by foot from Manly Wharf, this walk does involve a hill and can take approximately 20-30 minutes. We also have 70 bike racks available next to the event site.

BY CAR

Limited parking is available at St Pauls High School, when pre-booked via Ticketmaster at $40 per car.  The walk from St Pauls is a reasonably flat 600m. There will be no parking available on the night.

Alternatively Manly CBD has many parking spots which can be found here. From these locations you can book yourselves onto the shuttle bus mentioned above or, of course, walk. For information on accessibility parking please look through our FAQ’s.
