Phones
Numeralla now has mobile phone service for Telstra and the carriers that piggy-back of its services like Aldi Mobile. A short drive up the hill towards Peak View can obtain coverage for other networks. There is a Telstra Pay Phone box in the middle of the village that works with coins.
Note that no service other than ‘000’ is available via Optus or Vodaphone or their resellers.
Dogs
The Badja Reserve Camp Ground (or Numeralla Camp Ground) does not allow pets.
Sadly, we can no longer accomodate dogs at the festival either due to insurance restrictions.
Obviously, service animals with the appropriate paperwork are exempt.
Performing
Numeralla is a traditional folk festival, where people come together to collaborate, encourage and respect each other’s musical talent. Numeralla is your stage, so pick a spot and play.
But also more specifically if you want to perform on stage, put your name down for the BlackBoard concert on the Saturday afternoon of the festival (but get in quick, ((I mean really quick!)) the blackboard is usually located at the Hall near the BBQ entrance.
Supplies and Refreshments
There are no shops in the village but you can eat heartily, from breakfast to supper, at the hall. The kitchen is open from nine-ish in the morning until stumps, serving snacks, hot & cold beverages, delicious home-cooked meals and goodies (check the program for opening hours). The BBQ serves a late breakfast & lunch, and drinks will be available. Everything is very reasonably priced.
Should you need to stock up there are shops in Cooma including four supermarkets which is roughly 22kms away
