Please ask your taxi driver to drop you off at the location signposted only.
3Is parking available on site?
Cheshire Fest will make pre-booked car parking tickets available via Skiddle, providing secure, on-site parking facilities at Capesthorne Hall courtesy of the estate owners. Parking will be charged at a price in order to cover basic costs. Please do not park in nearby residential zones as we must try to minimise the impact of this event on neighboring communities and in order for the event to continue at this site in future. Priority disabled parking spaces will be allocated on a first-come-first-served basis.
Cheshire Fest will work to make local taxi companies aware of the event in advance, but please do ensure that you pre-book your transport to avoid any difficulties obtaining a lift to or from the event. Minibuses and coach parties are welcome; we will issue instructions for you to pass onto your driver/supplier in advance of the festival weekend.
4When will the lineup be released?
Information about lineup and attendances will be released via the website and social media channels and highlighted in public press and communications in due course.
5Can I leave the festival and re-enter?
Ticket holders cannot exit and re-enter the arena.
6Can children attend the event?
This in an over 18+ Event
7Can we bring a dog or pets to this event?
On safety grounds, no pets will be allowed to be brought to the event under any circumstances. Please find a dogsitter for the day!
8Am I allowed to bring my own alcohol and food?
Ticket Holders are not permitted to bring alcohol, food or drinks into the arena.
Alcohol is on sale at the event, but you must be 18 or over to purchase.
Bring ID, you will be asked each time you buy a drink. It is illegal to buy alcohol for another person who is under 18. Challenge 25 is in place at all bars. Accepted forms of ID are a passport, driver’s license or anything with a PASS logo.
9Are chairs allowed?
We do allow camping chairs into the event; however we ask that customers respect and adhere to guidance, markings and instruction as to where they are permitted to use chairs in the arena. This is to preserve and enable easy movement for customers around the site, for access for emergency vehicles and to ensure everyone has the opportunity to sit and stand within good sightline of the stage.
10Are Flags allowed?
Flags are permitted within the venue, at our discretion. If we feel that any flags in use may cause harm (such as in windy conditions) or offence, we reserve the right to confiscate these for collection at the event of the event. This policy is to protect our customers and to preserve views of the stage.
11WHAT ARE THE PROHIBITED ITEMS?
We reserve the right to carry out security searches at the festival entrance and prohibited items will be confiscated. Confiscated items will be destroyed and therefore unavailable for collection on exit from the festival.
