Please let us know when booking tickets if attending with a SEND family member.

For those attending the festival with families who have SEND we've created a social story, a simple list in excel of all the activities available so parents and carers can talk their kids through what they could do before arriving at the festival, a getting the bus script and a video walking from the venue entrance to the festival. With these we hope to alleviate any anxieties about coming to the festival.
