Is there a last time of entry to the site? I know we're allowed in from 12, but I'm not sure what time I can get there for :?

Bit apprehensive too, cause it's my first time at Mania, what a wet :roll:

I asked the same question when I booked my tickets. The told me "The gate is usually manned until around midnight. If there is someone still on the gate they will let you in."

Hope this helps.

Why? is a waterlogged field a requirement?

Seriously though, I'm only ten miles from Santa Pod, and we have had some hefty showers recently but with enough sun and/or wind in between to dry things out.

Unless it really pisses down all week it should be ok.
