What can I bring?
If you haven’t booked premium grandstand seats, pack a rug and some deck chairs (or even bean bags) so you can secure a great spot to enjoy the entertainment. If you’re bringing shade, please be mindful of those sitting behind you.
We’ll have food options onsite, but you’re more than welcome to bring your own picnic treats!
This is a licensed event, so no BYO alcohol – we will have a bar open across the festival for beverage purchases. Alcohol/ BYO is however permitted at your campsite.
Dogs are welcome on lead at your motorhome or tent site, but are prohibited in the event area.
