My tickets are still saying available but not transferable, too.  I spent ages on the chat (robot line) eventually to be told what I already knew.  When I pushed it said they may not be transferable.  My friend has done hers, bought after me so hoping it will come right.  Originally it said they would be transferable 3 days before event so crossing everything

Does anyone know when we’ll be able to transfer tickets to people? Thanks!

CB's correct - walking up to Cornbury has become impossible for many, age and infirmity etc like my building trade and agricultural injuries and pesticide exposure come back to bite most viciously. 

The festivals disabled access is very poor indeed and needs to be substantially improved.

I really welcome these day tickets for residents. This makes it possible to attend, mainly by looking after grandchildren whilst their parents participate in the real thing.

Gareth, Those with mobility issues who live in Charlbury or Leafield might well want to arrive by car. Yellow Gate is described as pedestrians only,

There will be very limited carparking near the Cornbury Yellow Gate this year, and not everyone lives in the centre of town. Nor is parking at The Spendlove Centre always available -- and in any case I would hope the Coop Car park wouldn't be blocked by those intending to spend the whole day at the Festival.

Wilderness has an accessible car park, but one needs to apply for this in advance. They also have car drop off facilities for those who have disabilities. There is in addition a shuttle bus from the station on Friday and Sunday (but not Saturday). The bus goes to the car parks, not to the yellow gate. 

I don't expect to go this year, but have used the accessible car park in the past.

Why would Charlbury people be wanting to arrive by car?  Apart from anything else, the walk from the car park would be at least as long as from the Spendlove.

Yes, Imogen, that should work at the Yellow Gate. 

Not so sure whether it will also be possible at the other gates for those wanting to arrive by car. I suspect it will, but perhaps Christopher or somebody else knows.

Hi Christine, thank you, just to confirm I can turn up on the day with a proof of id and buy a day ticket

No, not too late for local tickets, buyable on the day. See Christopher Edeson's post below. 

Leafield website states: Local day tickets (Friday – Sunday) will also be available to those within the qualifying postcodes, bookable on the day, at the festival, at the Yellow Gate, North Lodge OX7 3EH entrance.

I’ve emailed the residents email address last Tuesday and not had a reply. Does anyone know the day tickets prices for under 5’s and also how many day tickets you can buy as a local resident?

Has anyone attended the Wilderness information sessions?  Is there any point?
