WEEKEND TICKETS
There are four tiers of WEEKEND TICKETS : Super Early Bird (can be purchased on the Sunday of the festival), Early Bird and Advance. Once each tier has sold out, tickets move onto the next tier. A limited number of On the Gate tickets are available if the Advance Tickets have not totally sold out. Weekend Tickets allow access to the festival arena for the three days of the festival – Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
Weekend Tickets allow access to the festival from Thursday evening from 6.30pm when the arena will open for a little music, the annual pub quiz & a welcome ceilidh. Some food and drink stalls will also be open.
DAY TICKETS will be available from the website from MAY 2026.
Day tickets are for the FRIDAY, SATURDAY and SUNDAY only.
Tickets can be exchanged for wristbands from 10am each day at the Onsite Day Box Office.
We use Ticket Tailor as our online ticket provider to keep costs down for you, the ticket buyer. You can either print or present your e-ticket on your mobile device at the festival site Box Office entrance. Your ticket will be exchanged for a wristband. Please make sure that your wristband is easily visible to our gate Staff and Stewards. Wristbands that are removed or fall off need to be brought back to the Box Office for a new one to be issued. If it is lost then I am afraid, we cannot replace it.
Please check our our FAQ’s for more details
CAMPING
The Campsite opens for weekend campers from 2pm Thursday 20th August and closes on Monday 24th at midday. The showers are free to use and are in a main block near the campsite entrance. There are two toilet bocks within the campsite and the fire lanes are well lit with festoons. There is no separate quiet area for campers so please be aware of and respect your neighbour’s space. The Stewarding and Security team are there to help and support you should you have any problems. Please visit our FAQ’s for more information.
