Sidmouth 2026 Week, Weekend and Day Camping

For many, a fully immersive Sidmouth festival experience starts with the buzz of the festival campsite. Our Official Festival Campsite offers great atmosphere, views across the valley, and a handy location near the Bulverton,

The campsite is open from noon on Wednesday, 29th July, to noon on Saturday, 8th August. Our campsite is located at EX10 9DW, 1.5 miles from the seafront on Bulverton Road (B3176).

Pitch your tent or caravan/motor home amongst the warm community of fellow festival goers for a friendly festival accommodation option.

The Festival Campsite facilities include trailer toilets, as well as portaloos, showers and washing up sinks, plus a convenient Hub area with box office, festival catering, a campsite office and a useful general meeting area.

We have a designated quieter family camping area and an Accessiblity Area - a small number of pitches in the Accessibilty Area are available with Electrical Hook-up (EHU)

Space is especially limited for Live-In Vehicles - book your Live-In Vehicle add-ons with your camping tickets. A very limited number of  Live-in Vehicle add-ons are available with Electrical Hook-up (EHU)

There are two prices:

• ticket holder (for All-in-One Season, Week Season, Weekend, Day Season and other Tickets holders)
• Non-ticket holder for those just coming to experience the fringe events.
