For safety reasons we have needed to make some changes to our traffic management plan in 2023, in particular, to restrict parking on Ocean Reef Road. Please know, this is to make sure this wonderful event is as safe as possible and as respectful as possible to our community. The new parking needs are as follows:
New parking: Open from 4pm @ Littorina Park: 55 Littorina Avenue, Heathridge. This is not pay parking, but a $10 suggested donation is encouraged to help cover some of the associated traffic management costs. See map below.
No parking on the Ocean Reef Road median strip: From Eddystone intersection to Marmion Avenue and southern side of Ocean Reef Road will not be allowed for parking. See map below.
Local Parking: As always, we encourage everyone to not park on the footpaths or the driveways of the local residents around Heathridge and always be kind and respectful of our neighbours and their homes.
ACROD Parking: Our ACROD Parking (limited in numbers) will still be available as normal in the carpark off Siren Road on the eastern side of Heathridge Park. See map below.
We acknowledge this may be of some inconvenience to you, but we hope you can appreciate the upmost importance of enjoying this wonderful night together as safe as possible.
Thanks to our Partners!
