NON UK FANS INFO

If you're planning to come to the UK from abroad, please check this section out to know what you're required to do/bring.

​

1. Check the status of your country and what list the UK put it on. Click here to find out what list your country is on.

​

Red list: any travel from a red-list country to the UK is prohibited, unless you are a UK citizen or have residence rights in the UK. [pre-settlement status, settlement status, or Visa). If you are a UK citizen or resident, you are required to take a test (at most) 72 hours prior to your arrival, book two tests for Day 2 and Day 8 of your stay, and quarantine for 10 days upon arrival in a hotel. The package you have to book includes both tests and ten nights in a special hotel from a list of approved institutions. 

​

Amber-list (includes most of EU countries): you can now travel easily from any amber country to the UK if you have been fully vaccinated for more than 14 days, as the UK recognized the EU's vaccination. You are required to take a test (at most) 72 hours prior to your arrival in the UK, and book a PCR test from a list of approved labs provided by the British government here. You will receive it directly where you'll be staying, and you will have to take this test on Day 2 of your stay. 

For non-fully / non-vaccinated travellers: you are required to follow the red list rules. You have to take a test prior to your arrival, book two tests to take on Day 2 and Day 8 of your stay (you need to book them even if you're staying for less than 8 days), and quarantine for 10 days in a managed hotel. Controls (by phone and visits) are frequent and strict. If you fail to show up if an agent controls your quarantine, you could be fined £10,000.

​

Green-list: Follow the same rules and guidance as the amber list.

​

2. All passengers travelling to the UK need to complete a passenger locator form at most 48 hours before their arrival in the UK. They will be requested to show this passenger locator form at the border check along with their passport/ID and test. The passenger locator form is a summary of the traveller's profile, the reasons of the stay, and any relevant information about its owner. The booking reference of your package for tests + hotel or test for Day 2 will be necessary to complete the form, which is why you need to buy it, even if you're staying less than 8 days.

​

3. Entrance to the festival relies on your ability to prove that you're COVID safe, either with an NHS pass (proof of full vaccination in the UK), a lateral flow test that you can purchase near the place you're staying at and taken in the 48 hours prior to the event, or proof of natural immunity based upon a positive PCR test taken in the last 180 days. Please do not keep the ticket if you:

- are not fully vaccinated for more than 14 days on August 30th;

- are not fully vaccinated and won't take a test;

- are fully vaccinated with the EU scheme and won't take a lateral flow test.

Only NHS Covid Pass holders will be able to use their pass to enter the event. Only NHS subscribers can transfer their EU Covid Pass to a UK one. 

​

4. All EU travellers will be requested to show either their ID/passport at the border check. You are not requested to own a passport to go through the border yet. This new rule will apply from October 1st 2021 due to the Brexit. You are not requested to get a Visa either. 

​

5. All other travellers coming from countries that aren't part of the EU will be required to show their passport at the border.
