Do I need a ticket to enter the festival?

Tickets are not required to enter the festival. There will be lots of exhibits across the site, which are all free to attend with no booking required. Tickets are only required for the talks and activities being held in the Conference Room and the Craft Barn.

Do I need to book a ticket or can I just turn up on the day?

To guarantee a space on the talk, please book your ticket in advance, as there is limited capacity in the lecture room. We may be able to accommodate attendees without a ticket on the day if there is space. People will be allowed into the lecture room on a first come, first served basis.

How many tickets can I book? Does my ticket guarantee me a seat?

You can book up to 6 tickets at once. If you are booking for a large group, please contact as at conservation.courses@essex.gov.uk. All ticket holders are guaranteed a seat, but you cannot choose where you will sit in advance.

I have additional accessibility needs - can you accommodate me?

Please inform us in advance of any accessibility needs on the booking form or by emailing conservation.courses@essex.gov.uk. There is step-free access to all areas of the site being used for the festival, and disabled toilets located in the Visitor Centre and Granary Barn.
