No parking on roads or grass verges near the site, there is ample parking in our car park.
People can connect with drivers with spare seats if they need help getting to the event. This can be a big contribution in reducing carbon emissions and congestion – it also saves money and a great way to meet like-minded people:
If you are feeling more ambitious and conscious of your travel footprint, why not consider walking some of the journey to Hay? Slow Ways is an initiative to create a national network of walking routes connecting all of Great Britain’s towns, cities and villages. Using existing paths, ways, trails and roads, people can use Slow Ways routes to walk or wheel between neighbouring settlements. It’s designed to make it easier for people to imagine, plan and go on walking journeys:
Community does not offer camping as part of the event. However, there are two suppliers in the next door field! Both of these will be offering the opportunity to come and stay with them for the days before and after the event.
Arrive early and explore the magical area that will be the ‘Community’ home – with the Wye Valley Walk and Offas Dyke Trail running through the site. Hay on Wye is a brisk 5 minute walk away. If you stay the night before you will be the first to gain access to the site and the range of inclusive activities that will require booking in person on the day.
