Really excited for this!
I need to talk to someone about a change in circumstances which means I may need to swap tickets any chance of a reply before Wednesday because I have emailed twice and not had a reply.
Who is on at the community centre on Wednesday?
How do we book parking? Is it free with tickets or do we need to pay? Wickham Music Festival
We're heading down from Cumbria on Wednesday. Is there a map of the festival site please?
Where can I see Thursday line up?
We have full festival tickets but cannot arrive until Friday. Will we struggle for camping space?
When is it happening?

Be sure to catch Nick Parker & The False Alarms on Saturday 7th August, 15.00 on our Big Top Stage. And if you can't wait until then, watch this excellent lockdown video www.youtube.com/watch?v=rM4uNYnMc8A&t=34s
