How do Livestream events work?
Once you have purchased your livestream event ticket, you will receive a confirmation email receipt.
At least 45 minutes before the event is scheduled to begin, you will receive a further email containing the livestream link and access instructions.
Digital pass holders will receive their join links the day before the festival begins (if purchased ahead of time), or an hour before the next event following the pass purchase.
Click on the link 5-10 minutes before the event starts and you can then view the livestream of the event exactly as it happens! Events will also be available to view via the same link until 11pm on Sunday 12th October.

Digital Programme – Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I view the livestream recording after the event has taken place?
Yes! If you aren’t able to watch the livestream as it happens then you can click the same link to view the event recording. Events are available to view from one hour after the event end time until 11pm on Sunday 12th October.
- If I’m late to the event but it’s still taking place, can I still join?
You can join late to events. You can catch up on what you missed but you will need to wait until 1 hour after the event has finished to view the event recording using the same link.
- Can I share the link you’ve sent me with my friends?
No – only people who have purchased a livestream ticket can watch the event. If you share your link with someone else then you won’t be able to view it yourself at the same time as it can only be viewed by one user.

Yes – please add the number of additional viewers when purchasing your livestream tickets.

Yes – you can purchase a Digital Festival Pass for only £65, which gives livestream access to all livestreamed events within the Spring Weekend programme. Digital passes are available to buy at any time until 10pm on Sunday 12th October and allow you to watch all 9 days of events until 11pm on Sunday 12th October
