We allow you to bring your own cooking equipment provided it is raised off the ground and properly extinguished after use. Gas cookers are allowed within the following limits:
Live-in Vehicle Campsite
Propane or Butane cylinders under 7kg. No more than 1 cylinder per vehicle. Solid fuel stoves & Greenheat Base Camp Cooker.
We ask that people visually inspect equipment, including seals and hoses, to check for wear or cracks before connecting to any gas supplies. Once connected, perform the ‘soapy water test’ by connecting the cylinder to the cooking equipment, use a sponge to apply soapy water to the assembly including any joints. Once covered, turn on the gas (without lighting the stove). Any leaks will be shown by small bubbles appearing in the soapy water or a smell of gas before lighting the stove.
The festival has a professional on-site fire team on duty 24 hours a day to respond to any fires. In the event of fire immediately evacuate the area and alert a steward, security or member of the Campsite Management team.
Please note in particularly dry & hot weather cooking equipment may be prohibited altogether.
All Other Campsites
Gas canisters under 450g or rechargeable canisters under 2.75kg. No more than 1 rechargeable canister. Supplies over this should be returned to the customer's vehicle. Solid fuel stoves & Greenheat Base Camp Cooker.

You may only bring your allowance of alcohol in on the first entry. You cannot leave the site and return with more. Searches will be undertaken upon entry. If you leave the site, you may be searched again upon re-admittance.

All our campsites have toilets, showers and water points, as standard. Don't forget your refillable water bottle! There will also be plenty of toilets and water points in the Main Arena. You can see the location of all of these on our Festival Map.
There will also be a small number of food/drink vendors either within or close to each of the campsites and if you don't like what they're offering, you can head into the arena from 07:45 to see what else is on offer. Information on all our food traders, including the dietaries they cater to, can be found on our app.
Not to worry, we offer our non-camping ticket which allows you to come and go throughout the weekend, provided you enter within the gate times each day and keep your wristband on.
