Accessibility

Applications for the use of accessible facilities will open at a later date. Sign up to be notified when Accessibility applications open. 

  • Please buy a standard ticket first then apply for use of the accessible facilities. There is no separate Accessibility ticket. Please note, you will need to have either a Nimbus Access Card or Digital Access Pass to complete the application form. If you don’t have one, you can register with Nimbus for a free Crystal Palace Digital Access Pass.

  • If you require an essential companion and have the +1 symbol on your access card, please do not buy a ticket for them. Essential companion tickets are allocated through the application process and will match your ticket.

We are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all our customers. However, please be aware that the festival takes place on a large, outdoor greenfield site with temporary structures, some uneven terrain and natural inclines. It is attended by a significant number of people and, due to the nature of the event, some queueing, standing and the presence of large crowds is to be expected.

Please note, there is no parking available onsite or in the local area. The car parks within Crystal Palace Park (including the Terrance Straight & Paxton Car Park) will be unavailable during the events. There will be a pick-up and drop-off point for accessibility customers near to the accessible entrance on Terrace Straight. More information about the drop-off point will be available nearer the event.

Below you will find details of the accessible facilities available at the festival.
