Day Tickets

Dog Tickets
- Terms & Conditions for bringing a dog to the festival are here
- Dog tickets sell out very quickly. We have to restrict numbers to keep the dog situation manageable and safe
- Occasionally there are cancellations - email tickets@greengathering.org.uk if you’d like to be put on a waiting list.
- Don’t buy someone else’s dog ticket directly from them – it won’t be valid
- If you need to cancel your dog ticket, contact us for a refund – we’ll then pass it on to the person at the top of the waiting list
Campervans (including Motorhomes), Caravans, Trailer-tents, Roof-tents and Cars
- We offer several options for Campervans and Caravans – different sized pitches, with or without awnings – see Ticket Shop for options
- Trailer-tents are classed as Caravans
- Any vehicle in which you will sleep, including a vehicle with Roof-tent, is classed as a Campervan
- One small tent can be pitched alongside a Campervan or Caravan providing it fits inside the pitch you have paid for
- Otherwise, Campervans/Caravans will be sited in a different area to Tents – this is for safety, access and space reasons
- Cars cannot be parked alongside Campervans, Caravans or Tents – they must be parked in the car park
