FAQs
What time does the festival start?
The festival gates open at midday on the Friday. The festival will end at 11 pm on the Saturday evening. Live entertainment starts at 12:30pm on both days and will end at 11 pm on both days.
Is there parking?
We have ample (free) parking in the field adjacent to the festival site. Parking will be signposted, with marshalls to help. If you plan to stay late, please bring a torch to help you find your car in the dark.
Is the site wheelchair accessible?
The site is mostly grass, flat with no narrow entrances or exits. The parking and campervan fields will be stubble from the recent harvest. We also have disabled toilets available on the festival site.
Will there be drinks other than beer?
As well as amazing local craft beers and ales, there will also be a great selection of cider, lager, wine, spirits and soft drinks for sale via cashless payment.
What sort of crafts will there be?
We are excited to be joined by a blacksmith, potter, watercolour painter, basket weaver, community artists and wood carving. Most of the craft stations will allow you to participate for a small fee. The crafts are a big part of our festival, so make sure you book your slot on one of the sessions as soon as you arrive!
Is there camping available?
Yes, there is! We have a campsite with standard facilities (toilets and drinking water) located a 2-minute walk from the main festival site. There is also a separate camping area for campervans, and for those campers who wish to carry on socialising after 11:00 pm.
