Can I bring a water bottle into the venues?

Yes – But they must be EMPTY and re-useable bottles, definitely not glass or single use plastic (we are an environmentally friendly event)

Bottles need to be empty, as we are licenced and by law, you cannot bring drinks into licenced events. We encourage people to bring along their re-useable bottles (Empty) and then they can refill as many times as they like at the hydration station.

Is there a Lost Property Area on site?

If you lose something on the night, please ask security or event staff to direct you to Event Control. If you find something at the event, please hand the item to security or event staff.

Lost items, uncollected on the night are taken back to the Nightjar office. Please send us a message via our website with a description of the item, and we will endeavour to locate and get the item back to you asap.

Any items not claimed within 14 days, will be donated to charity.

Can I smoke or vape at Nightjar?

Smoking and vaping is prohibited by law in dining and marquee areas, so this makes Nightjar a smoke-free event within its boundaries.

Can I bring Alcohol into the Venue?

NO – BYO alcohol is not permitted, and any water bottles brought into the venues must be empty.

Beer, Wine, Gin & Tonic, Kombucha and Sangria will be available for purchase during the events within licensed areas only.
Other drinks will be available for purchase from food vendors and the hydration station will be located at both sites, for re-filling of re-useable (non-single use plastic) bottles.
