Overnight Camping

Please note that there will ONLY be overnight camping in the Overnight Parking area as noted in the map below.

Sellers are not allowed to camp in their spaces as Minter Airfield is a live, active 24/7 airfield. Simliar to last year, the Overnight Parking area is for those who plan to sleep at the airfield overnight. However, this year, the Overnight Parking area is now located closer to the front gate and a Porta-Potty will be located outside the gate.
