We provide a 2 for 1 ticket scheme to those individuals who cannot enjoy the festival without bringing a personal assistant/carer. The ticket type is listed within the event booking page.  We also have dedicated accessible car parking at both sites.

Accessible ticket types can be purchased online and each accessible ticket includes a 1 x personal assistant ticket. Once you have made your purchase, you will be emailed by the online team to request proof of disability to coincide with your ticket. Please keep an eye on your inbox including junk/clutter.

The festival takes place at 2 different locations, both London Chiswick House & Gardens and Tatton Park are in an open field space. As the ground is fully grass the terrain is uncertain due to weather conditions. We do have individual tents across the festival (maps will be available on our site prior to this taking place). Each tent is low level and can be fully accessed via wheelchair, the ground across the site is mainly flat. We have accessible toilet facilities on site.

Parking – we have a dedicated accessible car parking area at both sites. Please note there is no need to arrange this in advance of arriving at the festival.
