We are running this festival as cost-effectively as possible, and this is reflected in the ticket price so we are not able to offer group discounts.

As this is our first year, we have decided to run the festival as adults only while we find our feet. This may change in the future, but the 2024 festival is just for us grown-up kids.

As part of the Lambourne End site is a working farm, we kindly request that you leave your lovable pooches at home. Guide dogs and other assistance dogs are of course permitted.

Yes! Camping is included in the price of a weekend ticket.

Please wear weather-appropriate clothing but be sure to bring a waterproof just in case. A tent and a sleeping bag if you are camping, money if you are spending and a smile regardless of your mood.

There is limited electricity available on-site but mobile phones can be charged in the Blue Hut/Information point.

Showers are available in the main buildings and will operate on a first-come-first-serve queue system (temperature not guaranteed).

Lambourne End is an easily accessible site and hosts events all year round for those less able-bodied. However, paths can get muddy and the woodland area can be rough going but the majority of the site is grass fields and should present little difficulty.

Once you have registered and collected your wristband, you will be permitted to leave the site and return.

Essex Recovery Festival is open to anyone interested in recovery or sober living. We welcome those that don’t identify as being in recovery or sober but ask that you respect the fact that this is a sober festival and alcohol and illicit drugs are not permitted on site. Anyone bringing alcohol or drugs to the festival or presenting as under the influence may be asked to leave.

We have secured a wide range of food options for festival goers including a Caribbean kitchen, gourmet pizzas, burgers, fish & chips, Thai curries, cakes, cookies, and more. We also have a breakfast stall for all your morning munch!

All of our vendors have confirmed that they have vegetarian/vegan options available

We know times are hard with the cost-of-living crisis and we want people to feel comfortable and relaxed. If you would like to bring your food, you are free to do so but we would encourage you to partake of the food available from our wonderful vendors if you are able, at least once.

We are operating Essex Recovery Festival with a no-glass policy as the site is a working farm and outdoor centre year-round. If you would like to bring your own soft drinks you may do so. We will have an alcohol-free bar selling a world-class array of mocktails, soft drinks, and other alcohol-free goodies. There will also be coffee and teas available from other vendors. We would encourage you to bring plenty of water with you as temperatures could be high.

It’s a festival! Go nuts but keep it decent. Birthday suits may be photographed and used for blackmail.

The Mainstage and Dance tent kick off at 7pm – 10pm on Friday and 12:30 – 10pm on Saturday.

We do have a small amount of limited space available. Please get in touch and we’ll see what we can do.
