Accessability

The main arena is on a sloping, green-field site. The two main stages and Fringe stage all stand on grass areas and do not have access via hard-standing pathways. The Courtyard stage and Comedy stage are both on tarmac and can be accessed via tarmac pathways. Weather and ground conditions may be variable, with heavy rain the ground can become muddy and difficult to navigate.

The maximum distance you’ll need to travel across site is 500m (from the access car park to the Main stage).

An Accessible Car Park and Drop Off is located off the main driveway to Wollaton Hall, from Lime Tree Avenue which is available to all blue badge holding festival goers. The parking is on gravel – however the route from the driveway to the Accessible Entry Gate is tarmac. The Accessible Car Park is roughly 120m from the Accessible Entry Gate.
