Overall Rating
Good
Overall as a day ticket holder I was happy with the provisions. The viewing platforms were excellent, the parking was good and generally the site was easy to get around. Aspects to reconsider: Toilets - queues for disabled toilets - not overwhelming but as someone with bladder conditions waiting was tough. Entrance - the disabled entrance was via the disabled camping - this is a long walk from the carpark for those not using a wheelchair/scooter. In addition, there was no hard flooring at the security entrance so my wheelchair had to struggle with some really large gravel and stones. A single line of hard flooring to a disabled line for security would rectify this.
Disabled Access In and Around
Good
Some difficulty traversing the gravel and some of the hillier parts of the venue but overall access was good. Everything is step-free.
Parking & Transport
Excellent
Our experience was driving and using the disabled car park with no issues whatsoever. There were also coaches available from key stations.
Accessible Toilets
Good
Accessible portaloos. Relatively clean/tidy for a festival! Carer could enter with me. I do not know re Changes Places access, perhaps in the camping area, however we were day ticket holders.
Staff
Excellent
Super friendly and accommodating at all stands and platforms. Merch stand was rammed but we were spotted by a member of staff who helped us immediately.
