Bikers
and backpackers camp for free.
You
need to have a concert ticket for the day that you arrive to camp/caravan.
If you plan to arrive on Thusday, you will need to have a three
day ticket.
If
you plan to camp with others, it's a good idea to meet up with others
off-site and arrive together as camping spaces can't be saved.
Each
vehicle entering the campsite must have a valid camping ticket and
each person in the car must also have a valid concert ticket covering
the entire period over which they wish to camp.
You
can only get back into the campsite by car or by foot if you can
produce either a valid concert ticket or wristband.
Accommodation
Camping
on one of the many campsites spread around the site is one of the
best ways to see the festival. As the organisers say, a tent helps
you to 'connect' with your kindred Cropredy spirits.
There
are toilets and showers nearby and food outlets serving food at
different times.
If
you don't want to camp, there are loads of hotels and 'bed and breakfast'
outlets. But, they tend to get booked up early.
Telephone
the Banbury Tourist Information Centre on 01295 259 855, Bicester
on 01869 369 055 or Cherwell Valley on 01869 345 888.
How
to get there
Cropredy
village lies a few miles north of Banbury in Oxfordshire.
If
you are coming by public transport, you need to get to Banbury train
station.
At
Banbury station there are regular buses that you can catch to Cropredy
Festival.
If
arriving by car, take the M40 to the Banbury exit, junction 11,
and follow the signs to the Cropredy Festival.
You
will then join a queue for parking and camping at Cropredy.
