Pumpkins Accessibility Guide

We aim to be inclusive and for everyone to enjoy our venue and events as much as possible.

Venue

Wasing's Pumpkin event takes place entirely in rural fields and woodland. There are undulating and uneven areas of grass, woodland, mud & woodchip throughout the venue. The venue is as nature intended and there are therefore no hardstanding pathways or tracks, which can make access via wheelchair difficult. 

Visitors with reduced mobility but who are able to walk limited distances can access the pumpkin field via its exit. Should you wish to do this, please advise a member of staff upon arrival who will direct you to the pumpkin field exit. However please note that this option will mean bypassing the woodland trail and still requires walking across the vehicle parking field and along a short track to the pumpkin field. There is no seating. Should you choose this option, this is at your own risk. 

Parking

Parking is in a grass field with no hardstanding trackway from the car park to the event entrance and exit.
