We have decided to keep it fairly stripped back at Wildfires 2026 in terms of exhibitors within our Marketplace. This year we will only be having our merchandise stand, book shop, and café.

Please do get in touch again next year as this may change.

Can I bring my bike or scooter?

Unfortunately no bikes or scooters are allowed onsite. This is down to Health and Safety, the layout of our site would provide a brilliant runway and therefore we do not want to put people at risk of collision with bikes or scooters. We have therefore decided to be a bike and scooter-free event. This also applies to e-scooters and other electrified travel devices.

Can I light a fire in the campsite?

You can bring your own safe camping stoves but fire regulations mean that open fires and low level disposable type BBQ’s are not allowed. Waist-high, contained off-the-ground BBQ’s with wind-protecting side panels are permitted.

Fireworks, smoke canisters, floating / paper / sky lanterns, and other similar items are not permitted. Any person in possession of such items may be refused admission or ejected.
