Splore is an eclectic summer music festival that celebrates both music and art, and for New Zealand festival goers - there is no place like it. For 2015 the Red Bull Art of Camping competition returns to Splore, inviting the most creative to design and build their dream themed interactive living space, located on one of the most premium campsites at Tapapakanga Regional Park. <\/p>\n
Participants are encouraged to get wild and let their imagination run free, turning a 10x10m open campsite into a living art installation where anything goes and originality reigns supreme. Everything from a fantasy castle to a pirate ship - in a Splore state of mind no idea is a bad idea. The only prerequisites are that competitors must have a theme, show creativity, and have crowd participation factored in for each of the three festival days. Red Bull will even supply $500 to help turn the winning sketches into a reality. <\/p>\n
There are ten unique sites up for grabs, with winners receiving the chance to live for the weekend in their exclusive Red Bull Art of Camping site, complete with sea views, private bathrooms and hot running showers. A licensed bar will be at their doorstep, with ice-cold Red Bull delivered to each campsite daily. There will be plenty of electricity for their toaster, stereo, and phone chargers. Winners will be living the camping dream. <\/p>\n
2014 saw winners open show with a community clothes horse, where other festival goers could walk through and take an item off the clothes-line, replacing it with something equally fabulous of their own. Other entries included a giant wooden bench seat large enough to host a party, a space themed tea party and the stitched circle of love, where leading street artists work was translated into a giant cross stich. <\/p>\n
Entering is easy. Competitors just need to fill in the online application form from October 20 - November 29 on redbull.co.nz\/artofcamping and upload an image, collage or sketch of their proposed dream campsite. Entries will be displayed on redbull.co.nz\/artofcamping, so those who have entered can check back to see who their neighbours could be. <\/p>\n
