What is a tarp run?   Is this when they open TP camground for the week, and everyone rushes in to get a spot on Sat? Or does this refer to the opening of the festival grounds every morning    with people trying to claim a spot in front of the stage with a tarp? Do people wait overnight to get numbers to get a campsite, or to get into the festival to get a good seat?  Is there room to wander  in front of the stage, or is it jam packed so that one cannot walk around much?

I am coming Tuesday afternoon by plane, and have a small two person tent - should I assume that the whole TP will be covered with other tarps by then?

Can someone explain this please>

With a Tuesday arrival you should be fine.

We wait overnight for numbers to get in to the festival each day. See the threads about "the line."

There is plenty of room inside. Wander all day and you wouldn't meet everybody.

Did I just mention "the line?" I said I wasn't going to bring it up.  The jury is instructed to ignore the witnesses last comment.

You shouldn't have a problem finding a camping spot when you get there.
The tarp run and numbers are for festival tarp spots, not the camping spots. Cheers
