Festival FAQs

This is not a single venue event so you cannot buy one ticket that covers all events. Please choose carefully to make sure you make the most of your festival experience.
You can save cash with a 'mainstage weekend' ticket – this would cover all acts appearing in the big tent from Thursday to Saturday.
Concessions (or discounts) are available especially for children but there are limits on the number of these tickets so get them early.
Under 5's get in for free but they will still need a ticket, so don't forget the little ones when ordering your tickets.
It is important that when picking up tickets at the festival office you bring the booking reference number with you. If asking a friend or relative to pick up tickets then you will need to supply them with written authorisation.

There is a catering area within the main festival arena offering a wide range of food so 'if you've not had your tea' then you can get it there!
Full bar facilities, soft drinks and other refreshments are available onsite. Please do not take alcohol with you to the main arena - it will be confiscated.
Please don't take that expensive camera with you; photographic and video recordings of bands are not permitted.
