FESTIVAL INFO & FAQS HOW DOES IT ALL WORK THEN? Smithdown Festival is a multi-venue festival with a wide and varied programme of events and activities organised either directly by us, or by the individual venues themselves. There are a range of indoor and outdoor venues both throughout the day time and into the night.

DO I NEED A TICKET? In a word? No. In more words? Sort of. Around 90% of the event programme is FREE and no booking is required. Some of the events such as Wellington Yard and So Curious childrens activities are ticketed, and will be advertised as such on the Line Up section of the website.
