Updated Chair, Blanket & Bag Policies

Posted on June 02, 2026

Chairs & Blankets

If you’re bringing chairs and blankets into the Main Arena, please read & follow our full chair & blanket policy.

There will be busy times when chairs must be folded down and blankets removed for crowd safety reasons. Please listen to festival staff, follow signage and look out for on-screen messaging.

Please do not mark out a large area with chairs and blankets. Chairs must be free standing and not joined together by any means (e.g. cable ties or elastic).

There are walkways around the Main Arena which must be always kept clear of chairs & blankets. There will also be designated points within the Main Arena beyond which chairs are not permitted at any time.

You may use your chairs in Strawberry Fields, Penny Lane and Electric Ladyland. Please ensure they do not cause any obstruction particularly around the entrances and exits of venues. For health & safety reasons at no time should they be used inside the Big Top or Electro Love other than in accessible viewing areas.

Bags

For security reasons when entering the festival site (Strawberry Fields, Electric Ladyland, Penny Lane and Main Arena) you may only bring small bags or day rucksacks. These must not exceed 40cm in height. This does not apply to the campsite where larger bags are allowed.

Please see our full Bag Policy here, along with a list of things you can or cannot bring.

Trolleys and Tables

Trolleys and Tables are only permitted in the campsite.
