Your Questions Answered - Camping at Wannasee Penrith
Wannasee Penrith has excellent camping facilities available right next door to the main festival site. Located only a hundred yards away, to one side of the main festival area, in the beautiful grounds of Hutton in the Forest, you can pitch up, relax, and enjoy a whole weekend of brilliant live music, without a long hike!
We now have a choice of TWO camp sites - our normal camping area in the same spot as 2016's festival camp site, and our new quiet/family camping area, right next door, just as conveniently located, but designed with a late night noise curfew for families and people who want a quiet area to camp, after all the excitement each day, of the festival. Please click on our map below to see the locations of each camp site.
You can bring a tent, camper van, motor home or caravan, all for the same camping ticket price, and if you have a car you can park right next to your tent or caravan, for the duration of your stay, so no long walks carrying your camping gear! Both camp sites will have 24 hour security, drinking water, toilets and showers, all on the site.
