Hey lunar wave

Not an 'official' answer, but last year Sunrise Festival had horse-drawn carts, which were doing trips from the car-park to the camping field. (donations)

I believe Sunrise will have the 'horse drawn field' again this year too, so perhaps expect the same again.

I'm sure Torbz will perhaps be able to confirm Question

wave Hello lunar - i think you may be right. Not sure but I think the horsedrawn carts probably wouldn't be long enough to fit tipi poles on from what I saw last year. I'm sure they'll let you bring your vehicle on just to set up though Question

Glad you are coming too, it was brill last yr and has got to be even better this time Laughing

From experience, horsedrawn carts can carry tipi poles, if held on by somebody or rope
