Will I be able to get signal on my phone whilst at Boomtown?
As with most larger festival sites, phone signals tends to be a bit hit and miss. There are no payphones onsite so it's best to do things the old fashioned way and plan a pre-arranged meeting spot. Our app also has some offline functionality, so you’ll still be able to check the programme & the map!
What time can I stay on site until?
The site needs to be vacated by midday on Monday 17th August. Please make sure you are all packed up and on your merry way home by then.

I'm under 18. Can I come to Boomtown?
Boomtown is an over 18’s event. You may see some under 18s during the event. This is because some of our crew live on site for many weeks creating the festival. They will be accompanied by responsible adults and well cared for to ensure their safety and wellbeing.
How big is the Boomtown site?
The whole Boomtown site is pretty big, you can expect to do quite a lot of walking over the weekend so please bring appropriate footwear.
