Lost Village is a daytime focused experience with activities such as talks, workshops, wellness and restaurants opening from 9am, then comedy and music commencing at midday.

Headline artists all play before 11pm, with music generally finishing by 1/2am. We have some smaller bars and spaces that stay open until 3am.

This approach means music spaces are full of energy from early in the day, helping us to support the discovery of incredible emerging artists — something we are very passionate about. It also means everyone gets to sleep and eat in a way that is conducive to feeling good.

We are aware that festival fans are increasingly exposed to online fraud via ticket touts and social media accounts professing to have official tickets for sale. As Lost Village sells out in advance, we understand that this creates a situation where people who are desperate for tickets are often taken advantage of. To combat this, all Lost Village tickets have the individual ticket holder’s name on them. Ticket holders MUST bring a valid photo form of ID to gain entry, along with their personalised ticket. The name on the ID has to match the name on the ticket.

All tickets are non-refundable except as outlined in the Terms and Conditions – however, if you find you are unable to attend, it is possible to transfer the tickets from one name to another for an admin fee of £20, payable by the original ticket purchaser. This fee covers the administrative and resource costs to ensure that such name changes can happen with security so that the new ticket holder is not exposed to the risk of fraud and does not have to transfer money to an unknown third-party. Please be aware that in order to change the name on your ticket, the original ticket purchaser must speak to our ticket agent, Kaboodle, via phone or email and may be required to submit additional forms as requested. It is a robust and detailed process, but one which we feel is necessary in order to ensure total security and peace of mind for everyone involved. Please email [email protected] for more information or see our Terms and Conditions.

The last day that we can process name change requests is Monday 8th August 2022, however, there will be a grace period meaning that any name change requests that are received before 12pm (midday) on Thursday 11th August will be fulfilled.

After this date, we are unable to process any further requests. E-tickets will be issued shortly after this date and a margin of time is required prior to e-ticket distribution.

Tickets purchased through non-official channels won’t be valid and entry will be refused. The official ticket agent for Lost Village official 2022 is Kaboodle.

When can I purchase boutique accommodation?

The incredible Boutique Sanctuary is now sold out.

Unfortunately, we are no longer able to offer campervan pitches. We are trying to find an alternative for future years, but this won’t be in place for this year’s festival.

Do we have to camp?
No, if you choose not to camp your wristband will allow you access on the Friday, Saturday and Sunday, however anyone leaving the site and returning the next day will be re-searched on entry.

Do I have to pay extra for camping?
Nope, it’s included as part of your ticket.

How far is it from the car park to the festival/campsite?
It will be a short walk – around 5-10 minutes (depending on where you park) from the car park to the festival entrance.

Are you allowed to bring knives for camping/food preparation?
No. Common sense will be used when your belongings are searched upon entry. We will only allow small utensils at the sole discretion of our security team.

Is there a campsite shop?
Yes! We will have a campsite shop which will stock everything a discerning camper needs. We’ll also have a campsite bar too, which will operate as an off-license. 

Can I bring a gas canister for a camping stove?
Usually, the answer to this is yes, however, after a very dry summer, ground conditions are incredibly dry. Due to this, camping stoves are not permitted in any campsite this year. 

Is there a restriction on tent size?
No set restriction – however please be considerate to other campers and don’t bring anything ridiculously over the top. Gazebos are not permitted.

Can I bring a generator?
For safety reasons generators (of any size) are not permitted.

Can I bring a sound system/speakers?
As a condition of us gaining our license only small portable bluetooth speakers are permitted. Large speakers and sound systems are not permitted. If you are unsure of the size of your speaker, please ask us!

Can I bring a barbecue or start a fire?
For safety reasons, no barbecues or fires are permitted in any circumstance. Anyone found starting a fire will be removed from the festival immediately. This requirement is taken very seriously due to the nature of the site and the vast surrounding woodland.

When does the campsite open and close?
On Thursday 25th August, for the General Campsite and the Sustainable Pre-Pitched Campsite, you can arrive as of 10am. For the Boutique Sanctuary, you can arrive as of 12pm (midday).
On Friday (26th), Saturday (27th) and Sunday (28th) you can arrive as of 9am and this is the same for both campsites.
Non-campers may enter the site as of 9am on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
The campsite will close at 12pm on Monday 29th August, so you’ll need to be packed up by then!

Can I use cash on-site at the festival?
Lost Village bars will be contactless across the site. This means there will only be very limited places where you’re able to use cash, you can find out which bars will take cash at The Oracle. We’ll be accepting all card types including American Express and ApplePay.

Will there be cash machines on-site?
Although the site will be fully contactless there are still two or three places to withdraw cash. You’ll be able to find cash machines in the Burial Ground area and at the Campsite Hub. As always, be mindful about carrying cash for safety reasons.

Can I bring my own alcohol?
As a small independent event we need bar sales to keep the festival alive. The elaborate woodland site and production-heavy nature of Lost Village means it’s very expensive to make the festival happen, and thus we have to stipulate a limit on alcohol brought into the site (most small festivals have this policy). The personal allowance is 8 cans of beer/ lager or cider OR 1 bottle of wine per person. No spirits are allowed. All glass must be decanted and we ask that you limit the amount of plastic you bring and use a reusable bottle. Thanks for your understanding.

Can I bring glass bottles?
For safety reasons you are not allowed to bring glass bottles into either the camping or festival site. Alcohol within your limit must be decanted into reusable bottles. Any glass items, except for small make-up items and perfume/aftershave will not be permitted into the campsite or festival site.

Can I bring soft drinks ?
Sealed drinks, like bottles of water, are allowed but will be checked on entry to the site. There is no set limit on soft drinks.

Can I bring food?
Of course, however our food on site will be some of the tastiest you’ve ever had at a festival! We’re committed to ensuring your experience at Lost Village is an amazing one!

There is no limit re food.

What food will be available?
We’re very particular about what we put in our bellies, so expect a range of high-quality global cuisine served in the various Lost Village eateries.

Gluten free, vegetarian and vegan options will be available from many of our street food restaurants. A full list of our food traders will be available soon.

Newsflash!

It’s been a very dry summer.

As with the majority of camping festivals, the exceptionally dry grass means that camping stoves are obviously off limits this year. As usual, barbecues and fires are not permitted.

Beyond that, if you’re a smoker, we’d really appreciate you using the smoking areas, which have ashtrays and are positioned in parts of the site where we have the best access for fire safety. We do have firefighters based on site, but they cannot be everywhere, all at once, so we really need your assistance on this one.

Thanks team!

If you’d prefer to stay in a hotel for the weekend, then we can recommend searching for an Airbnb or hotel accommodation in Lincoln. A taxi ride to and from the festival will be approximately £20.

Alternatively, we are 15 minutes from Newark and about 20 minutes from Grantham. There’s also a number of small B&B’s in the surrounding villages.

The festival location is: LN6 9HN.

We allocate a number of discounted tickets to residents who live within the local area. These tickets are only available for those living in the following villages surrounding the festival site;

Auborn, Bassingham, Carlton Le Moorland, Haddington, Morton, Norton Disney, Stapleford, Swinderby, Thurlby and Witham St Hughs.

Applications have now closed. Your application will be verified by a member of the team and if successful you will be sent a ticket link to purchase one ticket only.
