Camping

Camping is free. The camping facilities will be fairly basic but there is plenty of room for all. There will be adequate security lighting, hot and cold water and decent portaloos, but no showers or personal washing facilities can be provided. There will be a designated place to deposit waste grey-water and food, rubbish and recycling.

On site

The on-site caterers will have a comprehensive selection of food (including vegetarian) drink and snacks on sale from early Saturday morning breakfast right through to late night snacks after each concert. There will also be a small shop on-site selling a limited range of cold fresh food and drink. The festival will also have a beer tent, craft stalls, entertainment for children, plus a play area and activities, various workshops and an open mic stage. Fees for workshops can be paid for at the Festival office during the festival.

Getting there

For those travelling by train, the nearest mainline station is Carlisle, although there are also local rail stations at Brampton (but it is a 1.5m walk from Brampton Halt into town!) or Gretna Green. If you need a taxi from a train station, Carlisle has a permanent taxi rank but you will need to pre-book a taxi at either Brampton or Gretna stations.

More information will be here when available.
