Can I get to the event with public transport?

Reaching Yeo Valley Organic Garden by public transport is not easy. One possible option is to catch a bus to Bristol Airport and to call a taxi from there. There is also the option of using a car-sharing website like BlaBlaCar https://www.blablacar.co.uk/

Is the event accessible?

Yeo Valley Organic Garden is a level site with some uneven patches of ground and gravel areas, which can prove difficult for wheels. Accessible loos will be available, and there is also accessible parking. There will be unallocated seating inside each of the speaker tents. You are welcome to bring your own camping chair.

Free entry to the festival will be provided for carers accompanying festival attendees with additional needs. Please email garden.festival@yeovalleyfarms.co.uk where a member of the team will be happy to assist you.
