This year Southbound is giving half of the festival patrons the opportunity to get their hands on a three-day camping ticket (there will be no single day tickets for this opening night). This means you’ll get access to the site a day early to set up shop at a leisurely pace, before dancing the night away to bustling beats begins! Get fancy with the dress up theme ‘Disco Inferno’ and score yourself some prizes.
