Following recent flood impacts on the Fitzroy River, extensive repairs are now required to the boat ramp and new safety requirements have come into effect. As a result, the VIP Water Taxi service will not be operating at Rockynats this year.

But good news! Platinum ticketholders, Sponsors, Entrants and Buddies will enjoy a free, dedicated VIP Shuttle bus, running continuously between the CBD and the Burnout Precinct.

You can hop on the VIP Shuttle from:

  • 171 Bolsover Street in the city centre, or
  • The Burnout Precinct transport hub on Reaney Street, just a short walk from the entry gate.

VIP Shuttle operating times:

  • Saturday 18 April: 9:00am – 4:30pm
  • Sunday 19 April: 9:30am – 4:00pm

This service is exclusive to VIPs and is designed to keep your RN06 weekend smooth, simple, and stress‑free.
