Info Tent

The answers to all your queries can be found here, together with programmes, a large festival map, notice board and lost property. You can also leave your comments and suggestions here and get the latest information on the running order. Info is open until 10pm each day and is located in The Village.

Medical Services

There will be a team of paramedics and first aiders on site for the duration of the festival, they will be located just outside the Village gate, however they do not keep prescription medication so you should bring your own supply for the festival.

Access Around the Site

The festival is located in the beautiful lush Larmer Tree Gardens much of which is lawned with some gravel paths between the different areas. The main entrance and campsites are situated in fields adjacent to the gardens and therefore access can be difficult in bad weather for those with limited mobility or using pushchairs. There is no vehicle movement allowed on the Tent Campsite and cars must be parked in the designated parking areas.

People with Disabilities

There are a limited number of discounted tickets available for people with disabilities and carers - please contact the festival office for details (see below).

On site our stewards will do all they can to help you enjoy the festival. There are wheelchair/easy access toilets available in both the festival site and disabled campsite. While we discourage non-disabled customers from using these facilities, they are not locked or staffed. There will be a viewing platform on the Main Lawn for wheelchair users and people who need to use a chair. As chairs are not normally allowed on Wednesday 14th July due to lack of space and health and safety regulations, you do need to let us know if you are bringing one on this day.

The dedicated camping and parking area is available to those who book a place in advance. However camping and parking places are limited, so please contact us to let us know about your needs, check on facilities and request a space.

For all queries please contact the festival office on 01725 552300 or e-mail abi@larmertreefestival.co.uk.

Families

Families flock to Larmer Tree Festival for its small, intimate and safe culture. The gardens and adventure playground are the perfect place for the kids to romp around.

Parents will be offered a wristband for their children on arrival on which they can write their mobile phone number. There will be a dedicated team staffing the Missing & Found Children’s Tent throughout the festival and our award-winning toilets and hot showers are always especially appreciated by families.

Children are the responsibility of their parent/guardian at all times. Please make sure they respect the gardens and resist the temptation to climb the trees!
