Audience location

It is expected that the Pyrenees Hideout will travel from the main townships within the broader Pyrenees and Western and North-West Victorian Regions as well as from Melbourne. 

Shuttle buses will be available for patrons to travel car-free from main regional hub towns, including Melbourne.
