Festival Venues:

Ilkley is on the A65, which runs from Leeds to Skipton.  Leeds, Harrogate and Bradford are a 30-minute drive away.

Bradford Council have recently introduced new parking regulations in Ilkley, including on street parking charges and residents only parking in many central areas.

If you are not already familiar with the new regulations, we strongly recommend having a look at the information about On Street Car Parking and Car Parks in advance of your visit to the Festival to avoid any disruption.

The Festival is easy to get to by public transport – just 30 mins by train from Leeds or Bradford – and Ilkley is small enough to walk round. Help us reduce our carbon footprint!
