    Will access to Rymill Park/Mullawirraburka be affected during the event?

    Access will be restricted to some areas of the park during the set up and pull down phases of the event from Wednesday 26 December 2012 to Saturday 6 January 2013 and on the event day Monday 31 December 2012. 

    Alternate access will be available through the park and this will be marked clearly with signage. 

    Areas of the park will still be available for public use including the playground, kiosk, the lake and sections known as BBQ west and south west Rymill Park.

    Temporary public toilets will also be installed next to the kiosk as existing public toilets will be within the event site.

    Will it cost to attend the event?

    Summadayze is a ticketed event with the average ticket cost set at approximately $150.

    How will the Park Lands be protected during their stay?

    In addition to the standard requirements under the event lease, Summadayze will be responsible for minimising impacts on the Park Lands by following Adelaide City Council’s Standard Operating Procedures for Events in the Park Lands. 

    The event will be responsible for restoring the park to its original condition at the end of the event.

    Specifically Summadayze has committed to undertaking the following Park Lands protection measures:
    •    Track matting or temporary surfaces to reduce vehicle impacts
    •    Fencing around significant trees
    •    Watering schedule throughout the event duration
    •    Areas where event vehicles will not be permitted
    •    Internal Traffic management plan implemented

    Can I expect noise where I live?

    Summadayze is required to abide by a Noise Mitigation plan for this event.

    Residents in surrounding areas will be notified by the event organiser via a mail drop at least two weeks prior to the event detailing the event times and contact information for complaints or queries.  Adelaide City Council will also be appointing an independent acoustic engineer to ensure compliance with acceptable noise levels.

    In 2011 a review of ACC noise mitigation standard operating procedures included a lowering of the acceptable noise levels for events in the east Park Lands.

    Is parking available at the event site?

    On-site parking is not provided for this event.  Public transport and nearby off street parking will be available to this event.

    I have already seen a poster or advertisement for this event. Has it already been approved?

    Approval for an event requiring public consultation is only given after the consultation period has concluded and Council has had the opportunity to review any submissions.

    Adelaide City Council discourages any event from promotions prior to Council approval.

    In some instances, particularly national tours, there is a need for events to announce dates in each capital city.  This however does not constitute Council approval for the event.
