COVID-19 Guidance

Attending an event: What to expect
We are conducting all our events with appropriate controls in an effort to keep everyone safe and to do what we can to minimise the risk of COVID-19 infection to our visitors and staff. The revised guidance under which we will operate events is set out below.

Please do not attend if you or anyone in your household is experiencing symptoms as per the NHS website – our priority is to keep everyone safe.

During the event
Everyone at our events will need to follow staff guidance and should maintain one metre social distancing where possible. Facemasks are not mandatory although we recommend, they are worn in indoor spaces where you will come into contact with people you do not normally meet. This is however a personal choice.
