No matter what age, status, culture or level of Tolkien fan you are, we want you to get out and meet other like minded fans and make life long friendships that will continue for years to come. Whether you come alone or in a group you will be with friends. We feel that a successful Festival in the Shire will be one where a supportive and caring atmosphere is fostered for all involved.

Parking
For security reasons, all vehicles on-site and overnight must have a parking pass or will be removed. Passes are not transferable as the number plate is needed. Day parking will be available on site, and then off-site nearby when on-site fills up. A car park permit will be issued at a cost of £5 per day if purchased in advance or £8 per day at the gate. Please specify the number on the pay pal note area. (The car price applies to motorcycles also). Parking for caravan, van, mini-van and truck/lorry is £15 per day in advance, £25 on the day. This also applies to RV/camper vans etc just parking for the day but not camping overnight. You need an RV camping ticket if parking overnight. There is a limited amount of disabled parking. Please reserve in advance on info@festivalintheshire.com Click icon once for each parking pass per day, thus if coming for all three days, buy three tickets. Parking charges on the day are higher and may not be available on site. Please note- you must have a valid entrance ticket to book parking passes.
Please designate your registration number for the parking pass. One vehicle parking pass is included in the camping charge, but we ask you to travel together where possible as parking space is limited. This is also beneficial to the planet.
Camping
The venue is set amid the picturesque Mid Wales countryside and to help you enjoy the whole experience more, there will also be onsite camping facilities for tents, RV’s, caravans & Sleeper Vans. Camping is available from the Wednesday night, check out Monday. Longer term camping is available nearby if you want to make a Wales holiday of your visit, please ask. We are offering Premium Riverside tent pitches at £20 per person per night (very limited please email info@festivalintheshire.com) or on-site tent pitches at £15 per person per night. Both types are positioned alongside the actual venue and include access to the venue shower & toilet facilities. Note- family tent camping is £45 a night for two adults and three children under 12. It is adult prices for each person over 12 years of age. The cost for RV’s, caravans & Sleeper Vans will be £45 per vehicle per night and they will also be alongside the venue & have access to the venue shower & toilet facilities, but no hook ups will be available, sorry! We expect there to be a wonderful atmosphere with so many devotees in one place, so please don’t leave it until the last minute to book your space and be disappointed. Cheaper off site camping will be made available after the on-site camping fills. Click the payment icon once for each person/camping pass per day, thus if 3 adults are tent camping for all three days, click nine times- 3 x 3. On-site camping charges on the day are higher, but are unlikely to be available on site. We are already selling camping tickets. Please note- you must have a valid entrance ticket first (or be a performer or exhibitor) to book camping passes.
Private Coach/Bus service
There will be a private Festival Shuttle Bus Service between Aberystwyth Railway Station and the Festival, mornings and evenings. The time table for this service will be released nearer the Festival & the cost of the journey per person will be £5 per trip (each way). There are many mini-cab/ taxi services in the area but these are more expensive. You need tickets in advance to use the bus service. Coach/ bus rivers will not be able to accept payment so you need to buy passes in advance or at the Festival. Tickets will also be available at the Bellevue Hotel. Please note, it would be a great help if you let us know that you will be using the bus service so we can plan how many buses and trips we need. We do not at present plan to run a bus service from other locations, however we can if the demand is there. There will be public buses and numerous private taxis from other locations.
