Contact Information
One of our small team (Claire, Robin or Joe) will be able to answer questions you might have about coming to our event.

All the information included in the Accessibility section of our website is available as an MS Word document which can be accessed by clicking the link below:
The Site
Wood Festival takes place at Braziers Park camping field. It is a green field site.
Most of the site is flat, although there is a slight incline in the main arena in front of the main stage.
The site is on chalk hills so drains well but we may experience muddy conditions in some places. We recommend being prepared for muddy terrain.
There is no hard standing.
Due to the nature and size of the event, we do not lay trackways.
Accessible Facilities
Accessible Camping
Accessible camping is located next to Giant Redwood. The ground is flat. Both main stages and the workshop village are within 150 m of accessible camping.
Accessible Parking
A limited number of accessible parking places are located just inside the main entrance to the festival and less than 20 m from the main entrance and Box Office. It is separate from Accessible Camping. For the safety of our attendees, we restrict vehicle movement on site. Please email info@woodfestiival.com to book an accessible parking space or if your access requirements include loading and unloading.
Campervans
Campervans are separate to accessible camping and sited in by the main entrance. Campervans require a separate ticket and must be purchased in advance.
Toilets
There are two accessible toilet blocks. One just inside the main entrance next to accessible parking and one next to accessible camping.
The toilet block inside the main entrance is less than 50 m from accessible parking and camper van parking.
The toilet block next to accessible camping is less the 20 metres from the accessible camping area.
All accessible toilets are fitted with Radar locks. A spare Radar key will be available in Festival HQ.

If you require assistance, we have a dedicated team of volunteer stewards (who will be wearing yellow high visibility vests) in the campsite or you can enquire at Festival HQ or the Box Office which are both within 150 m of accessible parking and accessible camping.
Booking
Due to the small size of our event, we ask that you contact us to book accessible parking and/ or camping by emailing info@woodfestival.com
Personal Assistant/ Companion Tickets
We offer a free Personal Assistant or Companion ticket for ticket holders over the age of 18. These tickets are available only if you have purchased an adult ticket and are unable to attend the event on your own.
If you are attending with a child under the age of 18 with access requirements, please contact us to discuss your ticketing needs.
We are a small event with limited capacity so we ask for supporting evidence to make sure our ticket holders with accessibility requirements can access the support they need.
We ask you to provide one of the following:
- Both sides of your Blue Badge.
- Confirmation letter showing receipt of PIP or DLA dated within the last 12 months
- Document of registration as severely sight impaired (blind)

Please feel free to block-out any personal or confidential information on your supporting evidence.
This request needs to be made two weeks prior to the event.
If you have accessibility requirements but cannot provide one of the documents above, please provide any evidence you do have. In this situation, we will review what you can provide and decide on a case-by-case basis
If you have any questions or to request a free Personal Assistant or Companion ticket please email info@woodfestival.com
