The Crib

We are very happy and proud to introduce our new, reimagined family space for EFF2024… THE CRIB.

After 15 years of creating incredible experiences for the children of Earth Frequency Festival and their families, the Family Realm team had their final year in 2023, and so a new chapter begins for how Earth Frequency hosts and entertains our families.  For such a big change after so many years, we saw this as an opportunity to reflect on what experiences our families are seeking at the festival, all the helpful feedback we have received along the way, and what we want to offer to our awesome freqy festival families.  So with The Crib, there are some new ideas and approaches coming through, but also plenty of familiar faces and the same level of care and dedication to create an awesome festival experience for the youngest of our festival community. 

The Crib will be located adjacent to the main festival entertainment area, before the beginning of general camping.  This space will host crafts, face painting, bubbles, circus arts and more. 

Entry to The Crib will be free of charge, and children must be accompanied by at least one parent/guardian at all times.

The Crib will be located right next to a dedicated family camping zone.  Family Camping is an optional upgrade which will provide one day early entry (enter from 9am Thursday May 2nd).  Family Camping will be managed to ensure only campers with families who have purchased family camping tickets will be in this space.  The family camping upgrade is $40 per adult ticket holder (the same price as a general camping early entry pass) and the ticket price will go towards support space facilities, as well as helping us to know how many families we are catering for.  There is no charge for children of any age to camp in Family Camping with their family.

For families camping in the Family Camping space, it will be very easy to wake up, connect with other families, head over to the Crib for all the morning activities and then enjoy a short walk in to the main festival entertainment zone.  In the afternoons, there will be live performances, music and children’s entertainment, and as evening  approaches enjoy an end of day movie that your little ones can unwind to as they get ready for bed.

Family Camping will also have a dedicated parent support hub for all your parental needs, which will offer access to utilities and supplies should you run out and  require a little help. 

So once again we offer a warm welcome to all our wonderful festival families, to join us at The Crib and in Family Camping, as we journey into tomorrow land together. Showing the next generation how it’s done. 

Look out for our site map and also the program lineup for The Crib, both of which will be landing in March !
