Accessibility/Inclusivity
Guess what? We're all about inclusivity here, so we're taking some serious steps to make sure everyone can enjoy the Bludfest vibes. We've got all sorts of cool stuff in place to make sure our space is accessible to everyone. That means dedicated entrances, viewing spots, and other awesome features designed with accessibility in mind.
Accessibility tickets are available at the standard cost of £49.50 and include a free carers ticket for those that require extra support.
But hey, we get it. Not everyone who needs a little help will necessarily need a full-blown accessibility ticket. That's why we're hustling to make sure there are other forms of support available for those with standard tickets who might need them. We're all about making sure your Bludfest experience is top-notch, no matter what. Let’s make memories together, yeah?
