HOPE Freedom Music Festival Dog Policy

We have been forced to change our policy from last year and we are not permitting any dogs on our site for the festival. Sadly we have made this decision due to incidents involving livestock and irresponsible dog owners. 

For the safety of our festival family, local wildlife, and surrounding livestock, dogs are not permitted on site.

The only exceptions are:

Registered Assistance Dogs (e.g. guide dogs, hearing dogs, medical alert dogs), in line with the Equality Act 2010.

Each assistance dog must be trained to carry out specific tasks for its handler and remain under control at all times.

Please note:

Therapy dogs, emotional support animals, and pets are not permitted.

If you require more than one registered assistance dog, please contact us in advance so we can make suitable arrangements.

Thank you for understanding and helping us keep the site safe for everyone, people and animals alike.

Take your waste home if possible or use the bins provided on the festival site if necessary. Love this place, leave no trace.
