    We are fine with food and drink being brought along to the festival but please bear in mind a few points:

    No Glass - This means in the campsite as well as arena. Any glass will be confiscated and this will probably include its contents, whether it is TK or JD!!

    No Babecues or open fires - So you won't be able to cook on these.

    The Bar-Will serve drinks at very reasonable prices so it would be much easier to come with a bit of cash than fill up the rucksack with cans! We feel that our ticket price is still very low for what we are putting on this year so please support us by buying drinks from the bar, we get a percentage of the revenue. Run once again by Paul from our local, this year he will be overseeing three bars, including a late night bar to keep the dancers happy! As usual he will be stocking it with local real ales, quality lagers, most spirits under the sun and of course gallons of PIMMS. A Bar Tariff will be published here nearer the time.

    Proof of Age- Want to have a drink and do you possibly look under 21yrs? The bar staff and stewards are trained to ask for proof of age of anyone consuming, or attempting to buy, alcohol who looks under 21yrs, this follows the national Challenge 21 campaign. You will need your passport or driver's licence, nothing else will do! Obviously you only need to be over 18yrs to be legal but please comply with our request.

    Foodstalls

    Of course there is really no need to cook with the impressive list of foodstalls and cafes we have booked this year:

    Veggie Heaven: Dan will be back again with his wonderful vegetarian stall, Blissfields just wouldn't be the same without them!

    Artcuisine: will be serving organic wood fired pizza, freshly made pastas and delicious vegetarian breakfasts. We will also have a juice bar where we will be making fresh juices and smoothies. You will be able to enjoy your food in our hand crafted chill out tent which is fully decorated in a Moroccan theme.

    The Mashed Tea Tent:
    A great favourite from last year is a sparkly magical tent with giant bees and trippy flowers and by far the best organic filter coffee, teas and flapjacks in the world ever!
