Weyfest 2024 Tickets
About Weyfest 2024
Imagine, a music festival without mud.
Where people open gates for you, say “excuse me” and move aside to let you to the bar. The tantalising aromas of great food mix with the nostalgic smell of steam from the resident railway, conjuring up memories of a bygone industrial age.
Where both young and old come to share new music experiences, together.
Where the sound of live music is everywhere whilst you wander through a fascinating museum dedicated to life in Rural England.
And where fans laugh, smile and nod to each other with a familiarity gained only from their mutual annual pilgrimage.
Sound too good? Not so. That’s Weyfest.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Weyfest is more like a mini-holiday than a music festival. It is a stress-free weekend in the country, with over 30 hours of the finest music from 4 stages, camping, posh loos, friendly staff and plenty to occupy the kids with music-, drama- and creative arts workshops; train rides; the popular Sci-Fi Zone and Outdoor Laser Combat and the many attractions offered by the venue itself - The Rural Life Museum, Tilford, set in the outstanding natural beauty of the Surrey Hills.
You can stretch out your picnic rugs or wander around the site to the 4 stages with your camping chairs. Sit and watch your favourite band or discover new artists from the eclectic mix on offer, or just find a quiet spot to watch the world go by.
The festival attracts new people every year - many of whom have not been to a festival for years for fear of mud and rude or drunken behaviour (there's none of that here!) and many who have never even been to a music festival before! Most have made new friends and now return each year for a reunion.
The venue itself is a major reason for Weyfest’s increasing popularity. The Rural Life Museum is a working museum, littered with artefacts of past country life and craft displays throughout the venue. A working light railway runs both steam and diesel trains around the perimeter of the venue and because the venue is so compact everything is within easy reach. No trudging for miles from the car park or campsite, no long walks between stages ... and no major journey to reach the excellent food and bars.
Once bitten you will truly be smitten!!!
Disabled access information
Are there any concessions for the disabled?
A. We assume that, whereas the disabled person wants to come to Weyfest, the carer may not and so, on the production of proof of disability at the box office on arrival, the carer will be entitled to purchase a carer ticket at half of the gate price. This is limited to one carer for disabled persons over the age of 16 for festival entry only and does not include camping or campervan passes. Where it is imperative that a second carer is necessary to accompany the disabled person, documentation to that effect must be presented to the Box Office staff on arrival. All discount carer passes are sold at the discretion of the Box Office staff following receipt of an acceptable form of proof of disability.
Acceptable forms of proof of disability are:
- Eligibility for Middle or Higher rate DLA (for care or mobility) or
- Receipt of enhanced rate PIP.
- A disabled parking badge, disabled railcard or any concession other than those listed above is not valid.
Are there any disabled parking and disabled camping facilities?
For those that are not camping there is a disabled parking area adjacent to the festival entrance.

How much are Weyfest tickets?
Head to the tickets tab for the ticket prices.
I have lost my tickets. Can you replace them?
A. If you have eTickets we can resend them to you (but check your spam folders first). Like any other box office or ticket agency we cannot replace lost paper tickets.
Is it possible to get a refund on my ticket?
Sorry, we cannot refund unwanted tickets.
Will tickets be available on the gate?
Weyfest does not reserve any tickets for sale on the gate so if they sell out before the weekend they will not be available on the gate. If tickets sell out Weyfest will announce it on the website so please check the home page before leaving home if you intend to buy tickets on the day.
Are pre-payment plan tickets available?
Yes Payment Plan tickets are available so you can spread the cost of your ticket over multiple smaller payments.
What happens If I bought a ticket and cannot attend?
Unfortunately we can’t issue you with a refund if you can’t make the event due to work commitments or your mates have dropped out. In these circumstances, we advise passing on your tickets privately to avoid losing out on the money spent.
Refunds can only be offered if the event is cancelled or postponed, as agreed upon purchase.
No, all ages are welcome! There's a reconstructed village playground, a sci-fi zone and plenty of activities for kids too. It's great for the whole family! All ages are welcome at Weyfest, Children under 10 are admitted FREE. Children under 16 must be accompanied by a ticket-holding adult.
Weyfest is located at:
The Rural Life Centre, Reeds Road, Tilford, Farnham, Surrey, GU10 2DL.

The Weyfest camp site is open from 10am each day and closes at midday on Monday. You are free to leave the campsite at any time during the weekend but if you wish to return, you must keep your wristband on.
Please do not arrive earlier than the opening time as you will be directed to the car park in order to keep the road clear. Once the site is open, preference will be given to traffic on the road and you may have to remain in the car park until the road is clear of traffic ie. by arriving early you will most likely enter the site later.
Not if you are over 21. If you are under 21 please read the Challenge 21 rules below:
Weyfest will be operating the Challenge 21 initiative which aims to cut down on underage alcohol sales and highlights the fact that:
“if you are lucky enough to look under 21 you will be asked to prove that you are over 18 when you buy alcohol”.
Acceptable forms of proof are: photocard driving licence, passport or PASS* accredited proof of age card.
The ‘Challenge 21’ initiative encourages sellers of alcohol to ask for official forms of identification from anyone that appears to be under 21-years-old. If a trader suspects someone is under that age and doesn’t have the relevant identification, eg passport, photo driving licence, citizencard, they will not be served. Stewards on site also have the power to request proof of age if they see anyone drinking alcohol who appears to be under age.
The scheme is being promoted because it can be very difficult to identify accurately whether someone is 17, 18, 19 or 20 but is usually easier to determine whether someone is 21. However if young people have official identification to prove they are over the age of 18 they will of course be served legally.
By Car - The site is 3 miles south of Farnham, just off the A287, midway between Frensham and Tilford villages.
By Rail - The nearest station is Farnham railway station. It is approximately 3 to 3.5 miles away from the site. There are plenty of taxis available in the taxi rank but sadly no buses that go to the Rural Life Centre.

Camping passes are valid for the whole weekend but you may camp for one or two nights at Weyfest if you wish.

Unfortunately not. It is a health & safety requirement that cars must not be parked adjacent to tents, campervans or caravans.

Caravans must be unhitched and the car parked in the adjacent car park.

Oh yes.. We have plenty of toilets that are cleaned and serviced constantly throughout the weekend and topped up with soft toilet paper.. The majority of these toilets are posh!

XL CAMPERVAN or CARAVAN
(Over 6 metres long OR 2.5 metres wide)
Please note that each occupant of a campervan or caravan will require a camping pass.
Sadly not – we’ve tried this but the provider charged the customer too much per transaction and so it was hardly used. The General Store and some other traders offer cashback however.
Sorry, no. It’s a health & safety thing.. However, there is a tent zone in the campervan field for those who wish to camp near to their friends that are in campervans. On arrival, simply follow signs for the motorhome/campervan site.
Yes they will! Please note that the railway is run by the Old Kiln Museum and there is a small charge to help maintain it.
BBQ’s are allowed but must be off the ground. Flat throwaway BBQ’s or any type of open fire are not allowed.
