The minimum age for entry into this event is 14 and all children must be accompanied by an adult.

Can I apply for a personal assistance ticket and blue badge parking?

Yes. We are an inclusive festival and, as such, we offer disabled ticket holders a free ticket for one personal assistant/carer (subject to availability). This offer is open to those who hold a current higher rate of DLA or other UK Government approved benefit. Supporting evidence will be required. Carer tickets can only be issued against general entry tickets.

To apply for a personal assistance ticket, please follow the procedure below:

  • Buy a standard general admission ticket
  • Email [email protected] with proof of ticket purchase along with a copy of your awarding letter for DLA (or other disability benefit) and reserve your parking space if required. We will do our best to accommodate any other specific requirements you may have.

We do not offer refunds, but you may give your ticket to someone else.
