Overview

Northern Kin Festival welcomes disabled festival goers and takes all reasonable measures to assist with their attendance and enjoyment of the event. At the same time, the festival takes place in the open countryside and disabled guests should be aware that the main arena, car park and surrounding areas are, naturally, fairly uneven and may be difficult to navigate. Where possible when designing the site, we do so, so it utilises level, flat routes, to make the event as accessible as possible for wheelchair usersIt is very important to the organisers, that we ensure that the event is accessible as possible, to everyone, and all aspects of accessibility are reviewed regularly, to ensure improvements can be made, where required, on an ongoing basis. This includes the availability of accessible disabled parking, wheelchair access, disabled toilets, and a wheelchair viewing platform for the main stage. We strive to do all we can to make Northern Kin as accessible as possible. As with any outdoor event, weather conditions and uneven ground in parts, on a grassed site, need to be taken into consideration, when using a wheelchair or mobility scooter, and for wet weather conditions, suitable clothing, footwear, etc, is recommended. There will also be a dedicated viewing area for wheelchair users to view the event, in both main stages, though it does have a limited capacity and will be on a first come, first served basis, exclusively for wheelchair users and one companion. To obtain access to these facilities, you will need to contact our team via the Contact page to ask for an Accessibility Questionnaire which is used to help determine exactly which areas are needed to enhance your experience. To help us process these requests smoothly, please ensure you have got in touch with us no later than 2 weeks before the event (Friday 18th July 2025). We will endeavour to process any requests received after this date leading up to the event, but we can't guarantee availability. If you are disabled and require the assistance of a carer (or in the case of a disabled customer aged under 18, an additional carer, in addition to the ticket holder aged over 18, which is required to accompany you), you may apply for a free Carers Ticket to accompany you at the festival. Please email info@northernkinfestival.co.uk or contact us via our Contact page where we will make provision for this directly.
