There’s something special about arriving at a festival before everything kicks into full gear – a sense of calm, excitement, and space to breathe. That’s exactly what The Big Early at CarFest is all about. It’s an extra day designed to ease you into the weekend rather than throw you straight into the crowds.

Kick things off with our exclusive Thursday evening meal in the on-site restaurant – a warm, relaxed welcome just for early-entry guests. After that, ease into the mood with laid-back entertainment designed to help you unwind and gently slip into festival mode.

By the time Friday rolls around, you’ll already be settled, refreshed, and ready to go – while everyone else is still queuing at the gates.

The Big Early isn’t just an extra day, it’s the best way to begin your CarFest weekend.
