Bramham Park is between Leeds and York, five miles (8km) south of Wetherby.

The nearest railway station is Leeds, and there are regular trains from major cities across England into Leeds including Liverpool, Manchester, Newcastle and London.

Passengers can then take the festival shuttle bus from Leeds Station direct to Bramham Park.

Leeds Station is about a 30-minute drive from the festival site.

There is a shuttle bus service running between the festival and Sovereign Square Park in Leeds city centre, and also to and from Wetherby.

People are being asked to get their tickets in advance on the First Bus app.

There is a timetable for the 2025 Leeds Shuttle Bus online.

Passengers are asked to note that trolleys are not allowed on the buses.

Festival-goers who plan to be dropped off or collected from the site will need to use the dedicated Pick Up and Drop Off zone, located off York Road (A64).
