Welcome to Podpads at Leeds Festival!
With an impressive line-up and lots of great previous years of Podpads at Leeds, we're so pleased it's that time of year again and Leeds Festival is nearly here!
Here is some important information to help you enjoy your Podpadding experience as much as possible.
Location
Podpads will be situated in the Pink Moon Campsite in the PURPLE Campsite.
If you are driving and have bought the car parking pass from us you will receive the carpark pass in the post. If you haven't bought the car park pass or are coming by public transport then you will have a bit of a walk. Everyone arriving by car will enter the campsite by the Lord Bingley Gate where you will receive your festival wristband. Follow the signs through the campsite to the Purple campsite. If you are arriving by bus you will find the bus stop shown on the map.
A Festival map is available from the festival website.
Check In
All Podpads guests need to check in with the Podpads Onsite Reception Team who will provide Pink Moon Wristbands (to give you access to the area) and show you to your chosen accommodation and provide keys where necessary. You will need a weekend festival ticket in order to stay with podpads. The daily tickets will not provide access to the campsite.
Your onsite Podpads onsite contact and Reception Manager is Imogen on 07592 441401. If you are arriving after 10pm or on Wednesday or Saturday then please let Imogen know in advance.
