PRE BOOKED COACH TOURS 

There is limited on-road parking for coaches in the centre of town (at a charge of £35 per coach). NO coaches will be allowed to enter any festival car park.  Coach parking can be pre booked here.


PARKING - ARRIVING BY CAR

The festival offers visitor parking at 4 sites in or near Alresford.

All of these sites are working fields or sports pitches, therefore, caution underfoot is needed whilst walking to and from cars. Other than Blue Badge parking (located at Perins School) the committee consider that none of these sites are suitable for the infirm. Parking is at your own risk, and we accept no responsibility for personal injury or vehicle damage.  

We request that you respect residents by not parking on verges, side roads or driveways.
