EVENT INFORMATION

Anything bigger than a delivery van is classed as a Large Campervan.
If you want to use an awning you need to select Large Campervan at checkout
You do not need to pay for an additional car pass for caravans or trailer tents.
Main Field Campervans (Red Gate) - These spaces are reserved for those in need (e.g. people with limited mobility or those with very young children. If you wish to reserve a space on this field please get in touch with us (boxoffice@fireinthemountain.co.uk). Tent camping is not permitted next to vehicles for safety reasons. The tent camping is separated from the vehicles by a fire lane on the same field.
All other campervans and caravans are parked across the road in the carpark. (Yellow Gate)
No tents are allowed in campervan/parking field across the road at the request of the land owner. Please respect this request to allow us to continue the good relationship with our neighbour and to enable the festival to continue.

Festival tickets include camping

Family Camping - bottom of the main field by the stream. 100 spaces for larger bell tents and family set ups. Please select this option at checkout.
Accessible Camping - top of the Main Field. Please email us to book your space.
Adventure Camping - down in the Valley by the stream. It’s quieter, and there are no kids there. Suitable for smaller tents.
Limited space on the main field (Red Gate) from the brow of the hill and up towards the main gate.

The full address is in your ticket email but please note if you are approaching from the East (A44) your SatNav will direct you via a tricky, narrow, hairpin uphill bend. If you wish to avoid this then head for Pontrhydygroes (after Devil’s Bridge) and don’t take the right hand turn opposite the white school but continue straight ahead. Your SatNav should pick up the route again, turning right over a lovely stone bridge. It adds only another 5 minutes on your journey.

We appreciate some people come from afar or can’t bring their own kit, or want to splash out. Our glamping partner for 2026 is Vintents, a wonderful crew who upcycle vintage frame tents. Long Live the 70s!
There are options for 2, 4 and 6 person occupancy, furnished or unfurnished.

Hate camping? There are lots of local BnBs around, and you can commute to the festival. Try:

£30 Weekend Car Parking Charge. It costs us over £7000 to facilitate cars and vans; Stewards and Parking Marshals, extra security, renting a field, and all that expensive, heavy and horrid to handle temporary road matting. We need to cover those costs and use anything left to subsidise sustainable transport incentives - there is a cheap shuttle from the train station, and a subsidised coach from London and Bristol.

The festival provides an accessible camping area which is near to the courtyard, medical tent and stages. It is situated on the main camping field. There are disabled portaloos for people with access needs.

Electric mobility aids and devices can be charged at the festival by prior arrangement. Please do get in touch. As we run the festival on a generator we need to plan for the power needs. We do not provide electric hook up for general use.

We do not have a dedicated medicine fridge. Our catering fridges are locked but please get in touch to see if we can help with storing medication.

We have 2 showers on site that are down by the stream. People with limited mobility may find it hard to reach the showers as they are along the bank of the stream. The path is narrow and passes over tree roots. The shower units are accessed via steps.

There are 3 stages and two food vendor locations.

The main stage in the courtyard is easily accessible with wide entrances.

The main bar is also easily accessible through a wide entrance and both are on hard standing.

The barn stage and bar are located on the main camping field (grass). Access is usually good but may become tricky if we have rain.

The lawn stage is on grass and again may be tricky if it rains.

Some food vendors are in the farmyard and on hard standing but most are on grass either by the lawn stage or the barn stage.

There is no designated quiet camping. The area known as adventure camping is quieter than the main camping field. Access to that field is on foot, down the stone track and over the stream via a footbridge. There are no disabled toilets in that area.

As the festival is held on a farm, many of the access routes are rough stone tracks. There is a small amount of trackway laid at the vehicle entrances (car park and Box Office).

We do provide carer tickets if you are in receipt of higher rate PIP/DLA or equivalent and are aged over 18. If you have access needs and are not in receipt of high rate DLA/PIP please do get in touch in the first instance boxoffice@fireinthemountain.co.uk and we will assess on a case by case basis.

If you need more information please do get in touch.

As well as the vast natural playground of woodland, hills and streams, we have a varied programme of interactive activities and entertainment for all ages. We’ll be based in the colourful marquees opposite the Travelling Barn stage. Details of the 2026 programme will be published in April. Please remember we are limiting the number of child tickets available. We do not have enough suitable (flat) camping space for family sized tents.

We welcome our furry friends but dogs must be kept on a lead and under control at all times. Poop must be scooped straight away and disposed of responsibly in the area provided. There are lots of animals, children and other dogs at the festival and we want everyone to feel safe. There are plenty of great walking areas bordering the site. Please be aware that you will be asked to leave the festival if you don't comply with this and we don't really want to have to do that. Lastly, due to the presence of livestock in adjoining fields, we recommend you remain vigilant at all times, as farmers do not take kindly to distress to their livestock.

Fires - no thanks! We have them already.. please don’t have your own or those pesky BBQs
Campervan Facilities - We can’t dispose of Elsan, and please fill your water tank before you come
Electric Vehicles - We run off generators so cannot charge EV’s unless by pre-arrangement. There are several charging points within a 10 miles radius. It just doesn’t make sense to use fossil fuels to charge a green vehicle!
Mobile Phones - There is no mobile signal on the farm and no mobile phone charging points. We recommend turning your phones off - or at least going onto airplane mode to save the battery power. Immerse yourself in the land, the people and the music.

We employ full time SIA security officers who keep everyone safe. They have the right to evict anyone from the site who is deemed to be a nuisance or unsafe and notify the Police. We do everything in our power to ensure the safety of everyone who comes to the festival. If you have any concerns please find a member of the security team who will be easily identifiable with uniforms and SIA badges.

We sell alcohol and therefore comply with current legislation. We operate a challenge 25 policy and only recognised forms of identity documents will be accepted – such as a photographic driving licence, passport, proof of age card with a pass logo such as a Citizen card.

Any drugs or weapons found at any time on attendees will be confiscated and destroyed. Our security officers reserve the right to perform random bag searches.

We have a lost child/vulnerable person policy and all key staff are briefed on the process.

We aim to reunite people with their lost items before they leave the festival, however if you notice that you have lost something when you get home then please send an email to info@fireinthemountain.co.uk with a contact number so we can get in touch. Lost property is kept for 1 week and then disposed of.

The weather can be unpredictable so please make sure you have thought of every possibility! Some years there appear to be more midges around than others so please bring insect repellant if you think you will need it. We have had one reported case of Lyme disease from a tick bite. The risk is low but please be vigilant. Our Medical team can remove ticks. Be prepared for sunshine and rain. We do everything we can think of to make the site lovely but sadly can’t control the weather
