Hi Edwin, 

What we can do for you is provide some space ( ~ 1m3 ) to store some of your tools in our Deco tent during camp. Unfortunately, we cannot help you with a camper spot. 

For the power socket question: that is something you can to discuss with people of the Fab-village, although I don’t think this should be a problem. 

Best, 

Catharina

I think it can be a fun addition to the festival. It is reasonably large (2x5 m base, 5 m high when extended). It has big illuminated eyes, can drive around, stretch it legs (the house is mounted on a hydraulic scissor lift) etc. (see pictures).
