CATEGORY: Campsites

All weekend festival tickets include access to all standard campsites. Public Campsites will open at 09:00 on Friday 29th August for Weekend ticket holders only.

All our general campsites are named and colour-coded to aid orientation across the site. There is plenty of space in the campsites for the capacity attending and so you should be able to find a space which is comfortable for you.

You cannot drive into the campsites at any time.

A Campsite Manager will be working 24 hours in each zone. Air hubs will also be operating in each campsite to provide any assistance and information needed. There are also teams of security and stewards in each campsite who are there if you need any help.

We’ve added brand new offerings in the General Admission campsite alongside existing pre-booked campsites.

Upgrading and improving your festival weekend is always at the forefront of everything the Electric Picnic team do, so we are delighted to share our plans to evolve the camping experience and give Picnickers even more pitch options for setting up camp ahead of a stellar weekend of music, creativity and wonder! ⛺

Campsite booking for 2026 is not yet open!

The Family Campsite is our dedicated campsite for families with children aged 12 or under (limited to 2 children per adult). Please note that ID checks will be in place at the festival. If you feel your child looks older than 12 years old, please bring ID to back this up (colour photocopies will suffice). There are showers, toilets and water points available in this campsite.

The Family Campsite opens at 09:00 on Friday, August 28th. Only people with Family Camping Tickets are permitted to stay in the Family Campsite. No single adult or group of adults will be permitted entry to the campsite unless accompanied by a child. Anyone who arrives without a child will be asked to camp in the general campsites.
People with Family Camping tickets have access to the Family Car Park.

Please take guidance from the staff on where to pitch your tent. If your tent is found to be blocking the fire lanes and emergency exits, it will be removed for safety reasons.

Introduce yourself to your neighbours and set up a neighbourhood watch system, it may sound naff, but experience shows that the best and friendliest campsites are the ones with people who make the effort to do so. It also means you’ll have more friends to party with.

AIR Hubs are located across our campsites and the arena. AIR is an acronym for ASSISTANCE, INFORMATION & RESPONSE and we will be working with local community groups and charities to run these hubs for us, with the support of our safeguarding and welfare partners at the festival.

There will be AIR Hubs located in the campsites and arena, meaning you will never be too far away from a friendly face or listening ear when at Electric Picnic. AIR Hubs in the campsites will also match the colour of the campsite bunting to easily identify which one you are at!

AIR Hubs will be open 24 hours in all campsites, from Thursday through to Monday until the campsites close.

AIR Hubs in the arena will be open during arena operating hours.

Refillable non-glass bottles of any size may be brought into the site, including plastic sports bottles.

Free drinking water points are located throughout the campsites and arena, which can be found next to the toilet blocks.

Please refill your water bottles at these points. Electric Picnic branded refillable water bottles are available to buy at the merch stalls also! Join the #RefillRevolution #BYOBottle

The Welfare Tent is located in the Jimi Hendrix Campsite beside the arena entrance and is open 24 hours and is staffed by experienced and supportive people.

They can provide confidential advice about drugs, alcohol, legal highs and sexual health, and offer support if you need to talk. They offer a monitored rest and recovery area if you’ve overdone it.

Please go to the Welfare Tent if you experience any problems or need to talk to someone for any reason.

We have a wide range of boutique camping options available across the Electric Picnic site. From spacious tipis and cosy yurts to a variety of pre-pitched and styled accommodation, there’s something to suit every taste. Each boutique campsite includes access to dedicated facilities such as upgraded toilets, showers and reception areas, helping you enjoy a more comfortable and relaxed festival stay.

Our dedicated Accessible campsite is a space for both tents and campervans. All information on facilities, support provided and how to reserve your pitch can be found in the Access section.

If you are camped in an emergency access lane, your tent will have to be moved by our security teams. The lanes are marked with scaffolding poles and festoon lighting. The lanes between the scaffolding poles are the emergency access lanes. If you are not sure about whether you are camped inappropriately or not, please check with a member of staff.

If you return to your tent to find that this has occurred, please make a note of the campsite that you are in and find the nearest member of staff to help or go to your campsite info point.

If you find yourself without accommodation due to your tent being removed then please go to the Welfare Tent in Jimi Hendrix which is open 24 hours. They will be happy to help you. Please note that although we will make all reasonable efforts to take care of your property, no responsibility can be taken for any items that are lost or damaged during tent removal.

Lost and Found will be available throughout the show.

Location and opening hours coming soon.
