THROUGHOUT THE FESTIVAL
About festival events: some must be booked, often through the festival platform, occasionally elsewhere; if an event is suitable for under 16’s, they must be accompanied by a responsible adult; not all events are fully accessible; walks may be over uneven surfaces, include steps, offer little shade, and necessitate suitable clothing and footwear.
