The festival RideShare is for offering or finding a lift with other participants. Access details are shared after booking confirmation. Drivers can list an offer for participants to contact them, or browse lift requests without listing anything and choose whom to approach. You do not need to publish your own offer to contact someone who has requested a lift. Agree the pickup point, luggage space and any fuel contribution directly with your travelling companions.

Rides are arranged by participants. Read more under Sharing the journey.
