Campsite rules

Admission to the campsite
• Everyone staying on the event campsite must be registered with the campsite management. Camping fees must be paid in full before entering the camping area.
• One waterproof camping permit for every tent to be put on the site, which should be displayed clearly for the campsite management and security staff to see.
• Under-18’s not accompanied in a group by an adult must have an adult, preferably a parent or guardian, sign their registration form.

Fire is a particular hazard
The following instructions have been approved by the Fire Officer and must be followed:
• The roadways must be kept clear at all times to allow access for emergency vehicles.
• There should be a space of at least 6 metres between tents.
• No fires are to be lit on the campsite and any barbeques be placed in suitable containers and totally extinguished and damped down after use. Barbeques must not be placed directly on the grass.
• In the event of fire, alert others using the warning triangles placed at the fire safety points and phone the Fire Brigade immediately.
• There are sand buckets and dry powder fire extinguishers at the fire points, which are marked with a 2m long red post. Please make sure you know where the nearest fire point is (these are marked on the site map issued at registration).

Vehicles
• It is intended that during the week the campsites will be free of moving vehicles, in order to create as safe an environment as possible.
• Please abide by the instructions issued at the time – this is important for preserving the quality of the grass for the owner.

Out of Bounds
• Please cross all fences using the stiles provided and use the path marked on the campsite map when moving between the 2 camping areas.
