The Teen Tent

Our Teen Tent is a safe haven, a retreat for our young people. Feedback in other years has been they don’t want grown ups in there, it’s their space, so while we have it staffed with a fully DBS checked team, otherwise it's no adults allowed!

Can I have a stall at Womanifest?

Yes! Check out our Get Involved section in the menu to apply for stalls and vendors at Womanifest 2024

Accommodation

Our bell tent village is situated just six minute walk away from the main venue at Fishpool Rd, Delamere, Cheshire CW8 2HP, offering a great way to fully immerse yourself in the festival experience, while also having a cozy and secure place to retreat to at night.  

Is accommodation included?

Accommodation is separate from tickets and is not included in the ticket price. You can hire a bell tent with your ticket.

Can I come on my own?

YES! Many of our awesome guests come on their own, but from the moment they arrive, become a part of a wonderful community of likeminded souls.

Will there be men at Womanifest?

The festival isn’t intended for men and there are no activities for them. However, there will be a small number of men on site in a professional/staff capacity

Is the festival accessible for disabilities?

Although mostly on the flat, the natural terrain is grass and bumpy in parts with varying gradients, as you may expect in the countryside. A few areas of the site (such as beside the river) and some of the activities may be more difficult to access for those with mobility issues. There is ramp access to bathrooms. We also offer a FREE carers ticket should you require some support for your mobility/care. If you have any accessibility concerns please email us at hello@womanifest.co.uk

Can I use the lake outside of activities?

All lake activities must be monitored at all times, for health and safety (and insurance!) reasons, we don't permit paddle boarding or swimming outside of the pre-bookable group sessions.

Can I bring a picnic?

It’s fine to bring in snacks etc and anything for special dietary requirements but we’d ask not to bring full on picnics as we have a great selection of food and drink on offer. Please don’t bring in your own alcohol though, this is not permitted.
