Car Parking

Priory Park has its own pay & display car park, which is the most convenient option. However, it tends to fill up early on busy days — so arriving early is strongly advised.

If you can, try to arrive early, car share, or use public transport.

Our Carbon Footprint
We are committed to making the Festival more environmentally friendly and we encourage you to do the same. Help us to keep the site tidy and leave no trace. Please bring and use your own water bottles. Try to conserve water on non-essential use. Do not bring glass; no glass bottles are allowed on site. We will also be offering visitors the opportunity to purchase a sustainable reusable cup instead of using single use plastic containers at the bar. We are actively exploring other ways that we can help reduce our carbon footprint. Together we can make a difference.
Top 5 Thins to Consider
1. Recycle, recycle recycle!!

2. Keep tidy. Please don’t leave rubbish or equipment

3. Bring your own water bottle and refill onsite

4. Car share

5. Use public transport or as sustainable as possible transport, particularly if local
