Fire Risk: What Cooking Equipment Can I Bring?
Following the exceptionally warm and dry summer there will be an increased risk of grass fires at the Long Road.
For the safety of all, campfires, open flames and charcoal BBQs (including disposable foil BBQs) will not be allowed at the festival.
Gas camping stoves will be allowed only if they are raised off the ground on purpose built legs or stands, or placed on a stable table. Please ensure that any cooking equipment is always supervised while in use and familiarise yourself with the location of the campsite fire points when you arrive.
You may bring in one gas canisters up to 5kg. Any larger canisters will be taken from you at the gates of the festival.
If you smoke, please dispose of your cigarette ends carefully and ensure they are full extinguished before discarding. There will be sand buckets available in the arena.
We will monitor the weather closely in the coming weeks and take advice from local authorities to ensure our festival is as safe as possible in this warm weather. We will keep you updated regarding as the event approaches and make sure you have time to plan accordingly.

Lower power appliances (such as phone chargers, TVs, etc.) can be used simultaneously with one ‘hot’ appliance

We provide clearly marked Elsan Tanks for disposing of Grey and Black waste. There are standard toilets and water points where you can fill up containers by hand. Please note, vehicles aren’t permitted to drive up to the Elsan Tanks or water points. Please DO NOT dispose of any grey or black waste in the toilet/shower blocks.

Can I Drive Away from The Pitch & Park Fields and Return During the festival?
