Access
'Hartlepool Folk Festival have the best teams for correctly handing accessibility. The whole festival is accessible.'
'As a disabled person I found the organisers their staff and venues very welcoming and helpful'
Our site is very friendly to those with additional needs.
​​
The Borough Hall on Hartlepool’s historic Headland is fully accessible. There is a lift to the upstairs spaces, and mainstage performances will be accessed by the ground floor level.
​
St Hilda's Church is on one level and offers wheelchair access.
​
The pubs and community venues we use are fully accessible.
​
There is a shuttle from the marina area which stops at the campsite, minimising the need for walking. This year it will pick up from the Premier Inn and the Travelodge.
​
Please notify us if you require a wheelchair space or any assistance. If you have invisible additional needs and require specific support, please let a steward know.
Companion’s tickets are available to visitors who are registered disabled. Please let us know if you need to bring a companion.
