GETTING HERE

The Sunrise Celebration site is easily accessible from the main A303 trunk road in South Somerset, between Podimore and Martock services just west of where the A37 (to Yeovil) crosses the A303, and it is clearly signposted for several miles in each direction. The postcode for your route planner is BA22 8PE

The A303 is a fast moving dual carriageway and great care must be taken at all times moving on and off the site. Please heed stewards and obey the signs to maximise your (and everyone else's) safety.

Come to YEOVIL, which has two train stations and a bus station. The Sunrise Big Red Shuttle Bus serves Yeovil Pen Mill station and Yeovil Bus Station. Yeovil Junction station passengers should catch local service 86 to the bus station to be met by the Sunrise Shuttle.

Shuttle buses to the Festival site will run approximately hourly from 12.00h to 20.30h Thursday 29 and Friday 30 May, and 12.00h to 18.00h on Saturday 31 May. After the last bus get a taxi (£10 - £12 until 23.00h, and £15 - £18 later). To find out when the next bus will arrive call Joethebus on 07836 235273.

Provided for festival goers Yeovil Pen Mill train station and Yeovil Bus station (£3 each way to/from the site). The Big Red Bus also provides a shopping and hole in the wall cash machine access service (£4 return from the festival site). For all enquiries regarding Big Red Bus call Joe Letts on 01963 250874 (before the event) and 07836 235273 (during). We cannot send our buses out to Yeovil Junction station because the road is narrow and unsuitable for large vehicles, so catch the local shuttle into the bus station and meet the Big Red Bus there.

The Big Red Bus is wheelchair accessible. Please help us, though, by avoiding the busiest times.
