Road closures

We post information about our road closures here. We only close a road to make the festival safer, more welcoming and more accessible.

We close roads from 0700 to allow for a safe set up. We trade 1000 - 1600. We aim to reopen the roads as quickly as we can but allow ourselves 3 hours to deal with the unexpected like breakdowns and spillages. 

 

You can contact us at hello@eatfestivals.org or call us on 0800 246 5200.

 

You can view road closures on the one.network
