Traveling by coach is the easiest way in our opinion, and the best way to make some new friends before the festival starts! Before getting on your coach make sure you have everything you need - bring snacks, water, plenty of reading material or download those podcasts you’ve been meaning to listen to (and bring your headphones!) so that you’ve got what you need for the journey ahead. Please also leave plenty of time for that pre-coach loo visit as there aren’t bathrooms on board!
YOU'LL NEED TO BRING YOUR E-TICKET TO BE SCANNED BEFORE YOU BOARD THE COACH.
To ensure you get on the right coach there’ll be a “Love Trails Festival” rep to meet & greet you.
