Accessibility
Kilimanjaro Live welcomes disabled festival goers and takes all reasonable measures to assist with their attendance and enjoyment of the event. At the same time, the festival takes place in the open countryside and guests with accessibility needs should be aware that the main arena, car park and surrounding areas are, naturally, fairly uneven and may be difficult to navigate. Stewards will be available, subject to peak movements, to assist disabled guests in getting into the main arena.
Accessible toilets are provided on site.
There is no covered viewing platform at this event, but there is a wheelchair platform reserved for wheelchair users. However, if disabled guests find that there are specific problems resulting from their disability, please contact one of the stewards who will be happy to do everything possible to help you.
Please note disabled tickets need to be arranged ahead of time and not on the day of the event.
How do I apply for a personal assistant ticket?
In our efforts to make this event accessible to everyone, we offer disabled ticket holders, subject to availability, a personal assistant at no extra charge.
The wheelchair platform is located in front of the main stage.
