Booking Terms and Conditions

We anticipate that tickets will go on sale to the Friends of the Festival on 21st June 2023 and to the general public on 28th June 2023.

General Conditions of Booking 

Advance booking is strongly recommended but any unsold tickets will be available at the door on the day of the event or at The Station at the start of a walk. Tickets cannot be exchanged or refunded unless a performance or walk is cancelled. All tickets for book events are for un-numbered seats (other than those sold by the Georgian Theatre Royal for events at the Theatre).

Please note that further important information and advice in regard to the walks programme can be found in the Information Section on the page for "Terms and Conditions including Walk Joining Instructions". Your attention is drawn, in particular, to the strict Festival policy of no dogs on walks, and to the requirement and advice about the need for suitable clothing and equipment.
