PACKING
All Together Now is all about sustainability, so, when packing for the festival, see how you can do your part in reducing the amount of plastic being brought on-site by making small changes.
For example, how about using a reusable tote bag instead of a plastic bag and switching to biodegradable glitter and biodegradable wet wipes.
Festival organisers are committed to ensuring the minimal use of plastic throughout the All Together Now festival site.
Avoid bringing single-use packaging and plastic bottles this year. As glass is not permitted on site, festival-goers are asked that to decant your alcohol before arrival into reusable bottles.
Also, while the weather is set to be a scorcher, remember that this is a rain or shine event on grass. Keep an eye on the weather and be prepared.
