Introduced in 2023, AIR Hubs are located across our campsites at Electric Picnic. They will provide a facility over and above the Info points that were situated in multiple locations in and amongst the camping areas.
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 existing safeguarding and welfare partners at the festival. There will be a number of these located across campsites, meaning you will never be too far away from a friendly face or listening ear. Air Hubs will be open 24 hours in all campsites.
- Certain items are not allowed within the arena or the campsites.
- You may be body and/or bag searched at the entrance, onsite or on leaving.
