Frequently Asked Questions

How are tickets for the festival purchased?

How are tickets priced and can they be refunded or exchanged?

Tickets are priced by the festival and cannot be refunded or exchanged once purchased. There are no booking fees but you can buy Ticket Protection at the time of purchase for just £2 per ticket should you be concerned about illness, travel problems etc. Due to the complexity of running a festival across multiple sites and with different partners, there is not a subscription, all events are priced separately.
