The festival entrance is on The Craig Road. Please follow signs for Devauden Festival as you approach the site.

Please do not follow your satnav near the festival site, as this is likely to direct you onto narrow local roads and single-track lanes unsuitable for festival traffic, particularly larger vehicles such as campervans. These roads can quickly become blocked by two-way traffic.
In particular, please do not attempt to access the festival directly from the A466/Wye Valley direction, as there are no suitable access roads from the A466. Instead, travel via either Monmouth or Chepstow and follow the B4293.
Travelling from Monmouth and most of Wales or England
If you are travelling from most of Wales or England - including Bristol, Bath, Herefordshire, Gloucestershire, Birmingham and further north - use the motorway network to reach the A40 or A449 towards Monmouth.
Exit the A40 on the southern edge of Monmouth, signposted for Trellech/Treleck/Tryleg, and join the B4293 heading south. The festival route is clearly signposted from the B4293.
Travelling from Chepstow
If you are travelling from Chepstow or neighbouring areas, follow the B4293 north via Itton, Devauden and Trellech.
As you approach the festival site north of Trellech, follow the event signage carefully. Please do not attempt to turn right in Lydart - if you reach this point, you have missed the approved route and should continue to Monmouth to turn around safely.
Car parking
Car parking is chargeable. One parking ticket covers the whole weekend, including re-entry, and we strongly recommend purchasing your parking ticket in advance.
Blue Badge holders should bring their Blue Badge to access the accessible parking area near the festival entrance. A parking ticket is still required.
If you can, please consider lift-sharing to make your journey and our event more sustainable!
