We think all events should be accessible and we know that to truly champion accessibility, we need to strive to improve year on year and continue to meet the needs and requirements of all Y Notters. Do be aware though that the Peak District terrain is mainly grass and can be hilly so we ask that you pack for all weather conditions when preparing to join us at Y Not as the site can of course get muddy when wet.
Please note: The accessibility facilities are only available to festival-goers with permanent disabilities, so broken legs, recent injuries, recent operations, elderly and pregnant women do not qualify.
As part of your request for accessible facilities, we require a scan or digital photo of one of the following pieces of evidence:
Please feel free to block-out any personal or confidential information on your supporting evidence.
If you have any specific access requirements (such as BSL) or wish to submit supporting evidence that is not listed above please complete the Access Application form and a member of the Access Team will be in touch.

We welcome assistance dogs on the site. There will be an area provided for drinking and relief. Please let us know on your form if you are bringing an assistance dog in advance of the event.
Please be aware strobe lighting will be used in many artists’ sets. There will not be a warning immediately before a period of strobe lighting.
In order to reserve an accessible car parking space at the festival, please submit a copy of your valid blue badge.
Y Not kindly asks that you don’t bring your own food and drink into the Main Arena, however, if you have any specific dietary requirements due to health conditions please complete an Access Application to be pre-approved by the Access Team. This will avoid confiscation of food and drink in advance of your arrival.
If you require prescriptive medication with you during your time at the festival, please complete an Access Application to be pre-approved by the Access Team. This will ensure that security are aware that you will be bringing this to the event. Please ensure all medication is kept in a clear polythene bag as it may need to be inspected upon arrival.
We operate on a case by case basis as we appreciate that everyone has different access requirements and we want everyone to have a great time at Y Not.
