Otherlands is committed to being Accessible. For more information about what we can offer follow this link. Our team is reachable at accessibility@otherlandsfestival.com - please contact us directly to discuss your needs.
We are working closely with Scone Palace, Local Councillors, the Police and other authorities to ensure that any potential negative impact on the neighbourhood, particularly to local residents, is kept to a minimum.
There will be a small level of production and contractor traffic on the build-up and break down days. The breakdown days will return the site to its original condition.

Volunteer with us.
Volunteers will be required to work 2 x 6 hour shifts throughout the weekend and must have full availability for the duration of the festival and be on site from 9am Friday 11th August at the latest.
Volunteering roles include wristbanding guests at gates, stewarding campsites and general stewarding.
As the campsite will be open 24 hours, some shifts will be allocated during the night. We endeavour to give volunteers a fair spread of shifts. Shifts will be given during the volunteer briefing on the first day of the event on Friday the 11th of August.
The campsite will be accessible to volunteers from Thursday the 10th of August.
If you are successful in your application to volunteer at Otherlands you will be required to pay a £50 deposit. This will be refunded to the volunteer after the festival, providing both shifts have been carried out.
Volunteers will be provided with their festival wristbands for the following day once each shift is completed [e.g. If Fridays shift is missed, the volunteer will not be granted their Saturday wristband and will not be able to access the festival arena].
Volunteers will receive 1 food token per shift [2 in total].
