It is the responsibility of all campers to ensure that no damage is caused to the site. Your allocated pitch and the whole campsite should be respected and kept in a clean and orderly condition. Please show consideration for other campers and our neighbours.

  • Pitches will be set out in such a way that no tent or caravan is closer than 2 metres to any other caravan or tent on an adjacent pitch nor closer than 2 metres to any boundary fence or hedge. Cars may be parked between caravans or tents provided they are not parked closer than 1 metre to a caravan or tent in the same occupancy and at least 2 metres from caravans or tents of other occupancies. A carriageway of at least four metres will be maintained between rows.All pitches are unreserved including our disabled and less mobile areas, if you wish to camp near to friends please arrange with them to arrive at the same time. Our biggest moan year on year is from people trying to reserve massive areas for friends & family who are arriving later or even the next day, and not being allowed to. The only way you can reserve a space is to go further into the camp site on arrival and camp away for the popular areas. Talk to security when you arrive for the best advise as to where to pitch. Please be considerate when pitching your tent. There are no specific pitch sizes but if you arrange your tents in such a way to take up more than a reasonable amount of space for your group you will be asked to re-pitch or take some of your tents down.
  • Our campsite is set on a farmers agricultural filed and as such will have unmarked ditches, uneven ground, tyre tracks and ruts. UPTON BLUES FESTIVAL will not be held responsible for any falls or incidences if the cause is due to the negligence of the injured party or the unforeseeable actions of other patrons or third parties
  • Admission to the campsite is at the Ticket Holder’s own risk. The Premises Licence Holder will not be held liable for any loss, injuries or damages sustained at the event including damage, theft or losses to property and motor vehicles, if the cause is due to the negligence of the ticket holder or the unforeseeable actions of other patrons or third parties.

If a user of the caravan/camp site persists in using an unofficial generator they will be asked to leave. Anyone found tampering with one of the festival generators will be removed from the campsite immediately.
