Wickham Festival News

Last Chance to save £40 on Wickham Festival Tickets

With the sad news of two other festivals (WOMAD & Cropredy) being cancelled today we want to reassure you that Wickham is still going ahead as planned… even if the Government delay Step 4 of their roadmap out of lockdown on July 19.

We’ve always planned to be able to run within ‘Stage 3’ rules if need be. We’ve more than doubled the size of our arena so there’s loads more room; we’ve added an outdoor main stage with video screens so there’s plenty of room for socially distanced seating if required; and we’ve put all the necessary COVID procedures and systems in place for a safe and COVID-secure Festival.

We’ve plenty of hand sanitiser points, one-way systems, extra cleaning measures, loads more toilets (most of them single occupancy) and plenty of fresh air!

With so many other festivals being forced to cancel for a variety of reasons, it’s small wonder our tickets are selling at a record rate.

Don’t forget that weekend season ticket prices rise on 1st July. If you’ve yet to buy your tickets please do so now while you can still save £40 on every adult 4-day weekend ticket, £20 on Under-16 tickets with Under-10s going free.

Day & Weekend tickets on sale via our tickets page.

And don’t forget, if you are unable to attend in August for any reason you can rollover your 2020/2021 tickets to 2022 at no extra cost. We’ll be advising how to do this shortly.

Thank you for your continued support and we hope to see you at what promises to be a fantastic Wickham Festival.

Kind regards,
The Wickham Festival Team

    It's great, but I have a question, why do flute players often stand on one leg ? Is it just because they can ?

    I’d do a similar thing if you’d book me I guess I’m the leader of the uninvited

    They have a string attached to bellows on their back, gives the lungs a 'breather'..

    Were delighted to say The Twisted Tearooms will be back at Wickham this summer.  And weve some wonderful new food & drink offerings along with all your Wickham favourites.
