Information

Please stick to the walkways when going over the embankment

on the field. The grass can be slippery and the bank is steeper

than you’d think. Don’t let a slip, trip or fall ruin your weekend.

Welcome, in advance, to our 2019 festival.

Please note that

we now have wristbands instead of weekend tickets — as well as the usual camping wristbands. You will need your emailed tickets

on entry to the site, these need to be exchanged for wristbands etc at the Pavilion or the Information Caravan

Details of this year’s festival can be found on our website www.uptonfolk.org and from our facebook page.

Weekend tickets The striped wristbands are for entry to concerts,

dances, workshops and other ticketed events and must be displayed at all times.

Security of your Personal Belongings on the Campsite

Unfortunately, Upton Folk Festival has not been immune to the thefts from campers which have affected many festivals. The organisers will

be working with the local police and our campsite attendants to combat this but the solution is also in your hands.

DO NOT leave valuables in your tent or unsecured caravan even if you

are asleep in it.

DO lock your instruments, wallets, phones etc out of sight in your car, especially overnight.

DO report any suspicious activity to a member of the committee, a campsite attendant or the Police on 101 or 999 for emergencies.

DO NOT confront any suspicious person.

There appear to be two patterns of thefts: the first is of

instruments occurring at any time during the weekend; the second is of cash and mobile phones (especially from tents)

which seem to occur during the first night.

Please be aware of the possibility of these thefts.
