Q: Can you camp for just one night?
A: If you are a weekend with camping (or quieter camping) ticket holder you can camp for one night, or two, or three but the standard weekend camping charge applies. Go to the Camping section for more information. If you are a day ticket holder and wish to camp, you will need to buy your camping ticket (subject to availability) at the box office on site and then will be allowed to camp for the weekend, and the standard weekend camping charge applies. You will not be allowed to buy a camping ticket without a valid festival ticket. The campsite is open from Friday at 2pm until Monday at midday, and you can arrive and leave on whichever day you choose. The cost for camping is the same however many nights you stay for.

Q: Will I be able to park
my car next to my tent?

camping’ but have realised we’d prefer to be in ‘Quieter Camping’
– is it possible to change?
A: Unfortunately you can’t change your tickets in advance, but
when you arrive on site, you can go to the box office and ask to change. This
will be possible UNLESS the Quieter Camping is full up.

Q: I’ve bought tickets with ‘Quieter
Camping’ but our friends are in the main campsite – will we be allowed
to camp with them in the main campsite?
A: Yes -your ‘Quieter Camping’ tickets give you access to the main
campsite as well, so you will be able to join your friends in the main campsite.
But unless they change their tickets at the box office, they will not be able
to camp with you in Quieter Camping.

Q: Is the charge for camping for a tent,
or per person?
A: The charge for camping is PER PERSON – if you would like to
camp, whether it be in a tent, in a campervan, in a caravan, or in the Glamping
area, you MUST purchase a weekend festival ticket ‘with camping’.
Each individual attending the festival and wishing to camp must have a ticket
‘with camping’

A: Yes – there will be a really well stocked shop (selling everything
from milk to loo roll, chocolate to batteries etc), several food stalls, and
a fantastic Farmer’s Market selling fresh local produce – please

you as there will be lots of delicious treats to buy!

helping people transport their gear into and out of festivals. Hiring a trolley
saves time, carries the weight and allows you to set-up camp a lot quicker,
making arriving and leaving a festival a much more enjoyable experience! Minimum
hire charge is £5 for 30 minutes – please click here for more information

via the MAIN/CAMPSITE entrance (The BLUE gate) and park in the campsite car
parks.
