On a wide screen every block is as long as the set, the space between blocks is the changeover and sets above each other clash; on a phone each stage is a list in time order. The filled block is the stage’s headliner. Times (sample).

- A tent you can put up in the rain
- A refillable bottle: water points are free
- Wellies or boots, and a warm layer for after dark
- Cash is not needed: every stall takes cards

Opening times (sample).
Can I leave and come back?
Yes. Your wristband lets you in and out as often as you like on the days it covers. Do not take it off: a cut wristband cannot be replaced.
What can I bring into the arena?
Food, empty refillable bottles, a small folding chair and a rain jacket. No glass, no gas stoves, no drinks of your own in the arena.
Is there an age limit?
Under-16s need an adult with them all weekend. The Night Barn is for age 18 and over after 22:00.
What happens if it rains?
The festival goes ahead. The Big Top and the Night Barn are covered, and we lay track mats on the main paths.
Is the site accessible?
Yes: viewing platforms at the Hill Stage and Big Top, accessible toilets, and an accessible camping field. A personal assistant comes free.
Food and drink
Twenty traders from the county, from wood-fired pizza to vegan curry, and two bars run by the farm. Most stalls stay open until the last set.
- Every stall has a vegetarian dish
- Free tap water at six refill points
- Reusable cups with a $2 deposit (example prices)
