FAQs
The closest train station to the festival is Sanquhar, which is just north of the site, and about 15 minutes away by taxi.
Dumfries is also near to the site and is well served from many routes from the south. Dumfries train station is about 30 minutes away by taxi.
Although Thornhill is the nearest town to the site it does not have a train station.
There will be a car park at Electric Fields, however, you will need to buy a parking ticket prior to arrival.
The festival is a safe and family friendly festival. On site there are lots of things to keep kids entertained, as well as Drumlanrig Castle's huge adventure playground which is a short 5 minute walk away. As part of the standard ticket we have a dedicated Family Campsite. However, we must remind all that kids remain the responsibility of their parents & guardians and not the festival.
