What a shame, Seth Lakeman and Suzie Quatro clashing!
Just digging our camping gear out in preparation!
Just one week to go! Both our main Big Tops are up as is our security fencing. Our site team will be busy today as cabins, toilets and other infrastructure starts to arrive. It's going to be a great Festival on our lovely new arena field. Have you got your tickets yet? www.wickhamfestival.co.uk

Yes, as others have said, a site plan would be good even if things have to change at the last minute. So the Big Tops are on the west of the Wickham to Waltham Chase road this year. Where is the camping in relation to the Big Top field? Is it the other side of the main road? Surely not.
Does excited happy dance 🕺, wanders off to pack, sun cream, waterproofs, sun dress, thermals, sandals, wellies... having done Wickham in all weather's I just know the music and site will be AMAZING whatever the british weather throws at us. Thank you. Xx
Can we arrive on the Wednesday?
