Accessibility Support from the Festival

All festivals we work with provide accessibility support for attendees, including Oxfam volunteers. This support typically includes:

  • Accessible camping areas
  • Viewing platforms at venues
  • Accessible toilet facilities
  • PA (Personal Assistant) tickets if you need someone to support you

If you would like to request any of these facilities, you need to apply directly with the festival. We cannot apply for this support for you. You can out how to apply for these facilities on the festival's own website.

Please note that if you want to apply for these facilities at Glastonbury, you should emailcrew.accessibility@glastonburyfestivals.co.uk, not the email on their website (which is four festival-goers rather than crew).

Like Oxfam, many festival organisers now use the NIMBUS Access Card as part of the application process.

In particular, please be aware that Glastonbury require you to have a NIMBUS Card to access these services and request that you don't apply for their services until you have one.

Letting us know

If the festival agrees to offer you space in their accessible campsite or the use of accessible toilets, it’s important you let us know about it in the “My Festivals” area of your profile.

This allows us to make appropriate arrangements, for example by ensuring your shifts are close to the accessible campsite if necessary, or by ensuring we have an accessible toilet in our campsite.
