Travel & Accommodation
Travel has been made simple and cheaper with the great National Express Coaches or you can pop on to the train and jump off at Upminster Station from the District Line via the London Underground. Both transport links pick up from a range of destinations to commute you safely to the festival and leaving you feeling eco-friendly.
For those who would rather drive to the festival then there are many shuttle buses provided from Upminster Station Car Park to the ‘We Are FSTVL’ venue, from 8am until shortly after midnight. Or you can download the ‘Uber’, ‘Addison Lee- London Minicabs’ or ‘BlaBlaCar, Trusted Ridesharing’ application on your phone and select a ride from a licensed driver…this is a much cheaper and fun way to travel, in comparison to a black cab!
If you would rather rest your feet up after a long day then there are many hotels located near to the festival, such as, ‘Holiday Inn Express, Greenwich’, ‘Park Inn by Radisson Thurrock’, ‘Hub by Premier Inn London, Tower Bridge’… or hostels for those who would rather jam with other fellow festive goers, such as, ‘The Generator Hostel London’.
Or, you can download ‘Airbnb’ on your mobile device for luxurious cheap service apartments!
