We want you to have as much fun as possible and enjoy your weekend, however there are a few rules you must follow when using the tents:
- Please take your shoes off when entering the tent.

- No naked flames or cooking is to take place in the tent. This is both a fire risk and carbon monoxide risk.
- All waste is to be removed upon departure and every tent will have a waste bin with bin liner included. Failure to remove your waste will result in damages charges. Please see the event FAQs for more details on waste removal.
- Each tent will have an inventory of items, please ensure all items listed on the inventory are left in the tent on your departure and in a reasonable condition.
- Do not remove items from the tent and transfer to other tents.

Event FAQs

Can I bring my own alcohol to the event?
The organisers & licensee of this event and as part of licensed premise agreement with the local authorities must discourage you at this point NOT to bring your own alcohol into this event. It is the gate staff’s/security’s responsibility to enforce this upon your arrival at the show. In the event that you are in possession of alcohol it will be confiscated and kept safely under lock & key until you collect it after the event on your departure from site. Also the seizure of alcohol at this point helps us prevent any underage consumption. The event provides its own fully licensed professionally run bar providing a vast array of the finest beers & lagers including spirits & mixers and cocktails at very competitive rates. (top quality and probably the cheapest festival price)
What is the events policy on drugs?
This event has a zero tolerance on any type of drugs including so called “legal highs” At the main entrance we offer any visitors a chance to not be caught out and prosecuted by the authorities by providing an “Amnesty Bin”– “Your Choice = Your Future”. Please note that the Derbyshire Constabulary not only place undercover officers at this show but also have the right to sweep any part of the event site at random with highly trained “sniffer dogs”.

We must emphasize at this point how dangerous both these pieces of cooking equipment can be in an area of confined space and if not used correctly especially if used near to or inside a tent. The risks of fire and the spread of fire & carbon-monoxide poisoning are very possible. Please follow the correct procedure or you may find your equipment confiscated for the safety of yourself and others.
Where can I put my rubbish?
Everyone attending and camping will be issued with rubbish bags and we ask that you keep your camping area clean and tidy at all times and if possible take your rubbish home with you helping us alleviate increasing refuse removal costs.
