On-street parking is extremely limited in Reigate town centre and so walking or cycling to the festival is strongly recommended wherever possible.
There will be free parking available for 70 cars courtesy of Reigate Grammar School at the front and to the rear of Broadfield House. This is a 10 minute walk from Reigate town centre. Enter and exit via the Broadfield site entrance (see map). Parking is at the owner’s risk and there is no access to other areas of the site on foot etc. Please park considerately (there will be no one directing cars) in lined spaces (no double parking please).
