How to get to Mighty Hoopla festival<\/p>\n

There\u2019s no parking available in or around the area and attendees are actively discouraged from driving to the event.\u00a0<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re taking the train, the nearest station is Herne Hill, which is served by Thameslink and Southeastern. It\u2019s just 0.3 miles from the site. You could also travel on the Victoria line to Brixton Underground station which is a roughly one mile walk. Prefer to cycle? There will be parking for e-bikes near the festival.<\/p>\n

The closest bus stops are on Dulwich Road and Norwood Road, each around 130 metres (2 minute walk) away from the Herne Hill entrance to the park.<\/p>\n

Are there any tickets left?\u00a0<\/p>\n

You can still pick up some resale tickets from the festival\u2019s official resale partner Tixel. At the time of writing there are plenty of weekend and Sunday tickets up for grabs. Take a look here<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

What\u2019s the weather looking like?<\/p>\n

Most importantly, it\u2019s going to be\u00a0warm and dry. On Saturday afternoon, the Met Office says that London will reach 29C, though there will be some cloud coverage. The city will cool down a bit on Sunday and only reach as high as 24C.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Bag policy and banned items<\/p>\n

Revellers can\u2019t bring in a bag any bigger than A4 size. There aren\u2019t any lockers on site so you won\u2019t be able to store a bag anywhere if it\u2019s not allowed into the festival. Bringing your own food isn\u2019t permitted either, though you can bring water in reusable bottles inside. On top of that, you won\u2019t be allowed to take in any of the following items:\u00a0<\/p>\n


\nBalaclavas, face coverings or masks,\u00a0except for religious reasons or medically certified health exemptions
