  • Dogs must always be on a lead. There are no exceptions to this rule, no ‘he never runs off’ or ‘she’ll stay close to the van’ excuses etc – the event takes place on a farm with sheep in neighbouring fields.

  • You must clear up after your dog.

  • Dogs are not be allowed in the marquees with the stage/bar in – they are loud, busy places and not suitable for animals.

  • Any owners not sticking to these rules will be asked to leave the event.
