We’ll be opening our campsites from 5pm to 9pm on Wednesday 2nd August and, for early arrivals, we’ve organised an extra free concert at Wickham Community Centre on Wednesday evening featuring TradArr and Les Barker plus support.

We’ve extra grassed fields available this year for the first time and all camping fields will have space available for early arrivals with plenty of space remaining for all arriving Thursday or later.   We’ll have fresh water standpipes plus chemical toilet disposal tanks.

Camp at Wickham Festival 2017 in style…

    We've kept Earlybird prices as low as possible for as long as possible but prices have to rise soon. You can still save £80 on every weekend ticket if you book before midnight on Sun Dec 5. A four-day ticket is currently just £180, that's just £45 a day http://www.wickhamfestival.co.uk/tickets
