ACCESS FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES

2-for-1 ticket scheme and important notes
|
This is the guide to disabled access and facilities at Hove Festival. We want everyone to be able to enjoy our festival, participate, feel safe, and be part of the crowd and hope to help you make an informed decision about attending.
Disabled consultants, volunteers and gig goers attend and audit our events, and their feedback, with that of our customers, is central to our ongoing work. We’re keen to hear from festival goers with a range of impairments. If you have any comments about this guide or our service, please send them by e-mail to disabledaccess@hoverepublic.no
This guide is also available in large print, and can be posted or emailed.
Please note all information may be subject to change, but we will provide updated information on the website.
If you wish to use disabled facilities, we ask you to contact us in advance.
The scheme and disabled facilities are not open to those with temporary conditions such as broken legs, pregnant customers etc. There are medical and welfare facilities on site which are open to all customers, but use of the disabled facilities and campsite are strictly regulated.
Via our 2-for-1 scheme, we may be able to provide disabled ticket holders with a free ticket for an accompanying friend or PA. For all events you must purchase your own ticket as normal and then complete and send us the application form.
* We don't send out free tickets for accompanying friend or PA in advance: they are issued in person at the box office at the event.
* If you don't wish to apply for a free ticket, but would like access to the disabled facilities, please let us know and we will try to assist you.
* All applications are at the discretion of Hove Republic and we reserve the right to alter or withdraw arrangements
FACILITIES
The festival site is a mixture of grass, woodland, gravel paths and concrete areas.
Our accessible camping area can accommodate a maximum of 8 tents & accompanying car. The car should only be taken to the camping area if absolutely necessary as space is very limited. 1 space = 1 tent (no larger than a 4 man tent) and 1 car.
There will be accessible toilets within this camping area and power points for charging electric wheelchairs. Once all spaces in this area are full, you can still apply for a disabled access wristband, free companion and access to the viewing platforms but you will need to camp in the Festival camp and park in the main car parks.
Disabled access wristbands give access to viewing platforms located close to the stages for people with access requirements and a companion.
The medical centre will be located in the arena and will be staffed by trained medical professionals. It will be open during the arena opening times. Outside of these times there will be first aid people available in the campsites who can be reached via operations central or by asking a steward or security person.
