I went with a group of friends from school and we all had a great time.”“Now that I work behind the scenes, I know the level of focus on keeping festival-goers safe and the facilities that we have on site to ensure this.
I would say to both weekend and day ticket holders that you’re going to have a great time as it’s a welcoming crowd and all staff on site are here to help.”“We have options to suit everyone’s different preferences, whether you want a more relaxed time or to be in and amongst the action!
