Programme & Activities

To help you navigate around the festival some of our activity areas have been named after one of the top ten sustainable cities in the world.

We want everyone to enjoy the many experiences we have on offer, in a relaxed, friendly, and inclusive way. Participants will get a colour coded table showing where they need to be on each day (morning / afternoon) and only their subcamp colour will gain them access.

14-17

Daily programme at the 14-17 hub and then evening themed events and parties. For older members there will be a KIST event to enable those participants to find out how they may support future festivals.

Some Guidence to help participants enjoy their activity packed days.

There will undoubtably be queues at some of our most popular activities, but there is plenty of time so we encourage our participants to relax and accept in some cases there will be short waiting times.

We will provide, for some of our larger activities, an arrival time to help manage throughput. Some
like our tree tops experience will have a ticket as this has proved the best way to manage that area at previous events. Where tickets and times are needed these will be distributed out from the Subcamp Support Teams. 

So on any given day, our cities and areas will be open to those wearing the appropriate coloured subcamp neckerchief, with the addition of a time or ticket where appropriate.
