All bookings will be emailed unique login details to a Weekender Account where all ticket holders are required to provide their personal details: full name, address, phone and email plus agree to the Individual Terms & Conditons. Completing the Weekender Account completes the booking. The eTicket Ref is also displayed here.
• Group Leader
Bookings with multiple tickets are required to nominate a Group Leader within their online Weekender Account. This is so we have one person as the main point of contact. It's their responsibility to make sure the Weekender Account info is complete and any balances are paid on time. They are also the only person required at the event check-in - this speeds things up! The Group Leader can be changed but gets locked one week before the event so please make sure you co-ordinate yourselves.
• Caravan Tickets (£175 per person)
Caravan Tickets are sold in groups of 4-8 corresponding to the berth sizes of the onsite static caravan homes. Tickets include 3 days and nights at the weekender and access to all music venues & weekender activities. Each caravan is self-catering and has a small kitchen with cooking/dining utensils included, bathroom with either a shower or bathroom and of course a sink & toilet. The lounge doubles as a single or twin bedroom with a sofa bed, and then there will either be one or two bedrooms with the relevant numbers of beds. The venue just provide a pillow and mattress cover per bed so please bring your own duvet / any extra bedding. We recommend a sleeping bag since it'll be easy to carry. Alternatively, extra bedding can be hired from the venue at £10 for the duration.

Camping Tickets can be purchased individually or in multiple quanties. Tickets include 3 days and nights at the weekender and access to all music venues & weekender activities.

The camping area is located slap bang in the middle of the holiday park so campers are right in the thick of the action!
