Unfortunately we are not able to refund tickets that can no longer be used. You are however allowed to sell or gift your tickets to friends.
Yes, but please try not to unless 100% necessary. You’ll find most things you need within the festival and we ask you to pack for your weekend with the intention of staying on site. You’ll need your wristband on if you must leave the site and only do so within the opening times of the festival site (see below). Cars parked in the main car park can drive on and off site within the opening times of the festival site. There is no re-admittance from the Live in Vehicle field. If your car or live-in vehicle is in the live-in vehicle field then once you are in your pitch, please do not move your vehicle until you are ready to leave the festival on the Monday.
No. There will be absolutely no gate sales whatsoever. If you do not have a valid ticket when you arrive at the festival, you will not be able to enter the site.
No, sorry – we only sell full weekend tickets to Elderflower Fields.
Like most festivals, we sell our tickets at different price tiers. We release a set amount at each tier and they start cheaper and get more expensive as we get closer to selling out. This is to encourage people to buy early, which helps with the cash flow and planning of the event. Once the allocation for one tier is sold, we move on to the next tier. We always announce when we are going to be changing price tiers or selling out, to give people some notice if they want to save money. If you haven’t done so already, sign up to our mailing list to stay informed about ticket tier price changes.
The main camping field is quite spacious so there is a good chance you will be able to camp with your friends and have plenty of room to spread out, but we recommend arriving early to ensure this as we cannot reserve spaces.
Please do not bring gazebos as they take up too much room. The Wild Camping field is generally the most spacious.
Yes, but you will need to book live-in vehicle pitches together. More information can be found here.
Yes. You must buy a Live-in Vehicle Ticket in advance – they will not be available on the gate and if you turn up without a ticket you’ll have to park in the main car park.
Trailer tents which require a vehicle to tow them, caravans, motorhomes and campervans all require live-in vehicle pitch ticket.
Yep. Various lovely ‘glamping’ options are be available. You must book in advance. More details are available on the Glamping page.
You are allowed your own fire pits or barbecues provided they are raised off the ground, but you are not allowed to build any other type of campfire or take wood from anywhere on the site.
If the conditions are particularly hot, dry or windy, we may place a ban on all fires – this will be communicated before the festival.
No. Please do not bring additional gazebos or large awnings. The campsites are spacious, but there is not enough room if everyone also brings gazebos. Please be considerate towards your fellow campers. and only take the room you need for your tent.
Yes, this is allowed but please do not bring any glass and be mindful of how much rubbish you are creating. We have asked all our food providers to make their meals affordable (as well as good quality).
Those over 18 are allowed to bring their own alcohol for personal consumption in the campsites/live-in vehicle field only. Please only bring a reasonable amount per person and note that this shall not be permitted into the festival arena, where we have fully licensed bars available. Re-stocking from off-site is not permitted, and there is a site-wide glass ban. We reserve the right to confiscate alcohol in breach of these terms.
Please also remember that you will have to carry all of your equipment from the car park to the campsites, so we suggest you just bring a few essentials and enjoy the huge range of wonderful food and drink available from our vendors and bars.
Barbecues and gas camp stoves are allowed but please don’t bring any petrol stoves. Also make sure they are raised off the grass and are well away from tents.
Please don’t bring disposable barbecues – they are very difficult to recycle and not very sustainable (or very good at cooking food in our opinion…).
Gates open on Friday 23rd May at 12 noon. Please do not arrive at the festival before 12 as you will not be allowed into the car park before this time. Last entry to the site will be 8.45pm and tickets must be exchanged for wristbands before 9pm.
