This varies depending on the Event/Festival, exact arrival dates and times will be sent out in the PAAM information. For most events you will need to arrive the day before your first shift (if there is on-site camping available). For a day event or you are travelling in and out you will need to arrive thirty minutes before your shift. Make sure you arrive with plenty of time to set up your tent before the briefing (if it is a camping event). Nobody enjoys putting up their tent in the dark!
