Entry is via the entrance from the Cottam Hall car park gates only.

There is no parking on the event site. Free parking is available at The Blackpool Sixth Form College. This is a 20-minute walk away from Cottam Hall Playing Fields. A free shuttle bus, operated by Blackpool Transport Services Ltd, will shuttle from Blackpool Sixth Form to Cottam Hall between 10:15am and 4pm, so you can park up and hitch a ride to Wanderland! We are also encouraging ticket holders to use public transport, as there are regular bus routes into Poulton town centre. Poulton railway station is a 15-minute walk to the event site. The car park at Wyre Council Civic Centre also will be open and free to use on the day of the event. It is a 25-minute walk from the car park to the event site. The route is fully paved with two road crossings, and is mostly flat, with one minor incline.

If you have access needs, you need to contact wanderland@wyre.gov.uk. We will be happy to assist you with planning your visit and support you on the day. You can find information about accessibility on our accessibility page.

If tickets have not sold out, then there will be an opportunity for you to purchase tickets on the gate on the day.

On entry to Wanderland your digital ticket will be exchanged for a non-transferable wrist band. You may leave the site and be readmitted at any time as long as you produce your wristband.

We do not offer refunds, but you may give your ticket to someone else. It is prohibited to resell tickets.

The stage running order and times for the day will be promoted on this website and social media channels. The stage programme is repeated during the day. You can of course stay for the whole day, but this may help you in planning your visit to the event.

The gates open at 10:45am and the activities and stage programme begin at 11am. The event finishes at 5pm.

Limited seating will be available on site. Including a small number of deck chairs. Guests are welcome to bring a folding chair or picnic blankets, but no picnic tables or canopies/parasols or tents. Be sure to take all of your belongings home with you after the event.

Everything except food and drink is included in the cost of your ticket! All food and drink vendors will accept card payments and some vendors may accept cash. You can use debit/credit cards or apps on your phone, such as Google Pay and Apple Pay.

No pets or other animals are allowed on site except for registered assistance dogs and guide dogs.

While we have a fantastic selection of food and drink vendors on site offering a variety of delicious options, we understand that some children have particular tastes and preferences and therefore ticket holders may prefer to bring their own snacks, but no picnics please. We encourage you to explore the wonderful offerings from our traders and we hope you enjoy all that Wanderland has to offer!

Due to licensing restrictions, you are not permitted to bring alcohol into the event. There will be a fully licensed bar available for you. It will be operating and enforcing a strict Challenge 25 policy so if you are lucky enough to look 25 or younger, please make sure that you bring an acceptable form of identification.
