Definitely take your gear!!
The first Star Party I went to, I arrived in the arvo, had a look at all the impressive scopes on the field and thought, I am not getting my little thing (130mm Saxon Newt) out. Once I met a couple of people they encouraged me to set up and we had a great night comparing the view in my scope and others. Also they answered a few queries I had about setting it up.
Definitely worthwhile!
