This year, the camping site previously operated by the Afro Project Association is unfortunately closed. However, it is possible to park your camper van on the Viehmarktplatz directly at the festival site. Electricity is available there for a limited number of campers. Water, waste water disposal and toilets are available for everyone. The operator of the car park is Würzburger Stadt Verkehrs GmbH.
