"So for Timber '24, we are going to trial a three-tier ticket system to ensure the festival remains an inclusive and welcoming space for all who want to join us, here's how it works:

"Supporter tickets 'pay it forwards' and the fee goes directly towards out subsidised ticketing option.

"Standard ticket prices are what we need most people to pay to run the festival.

"Subsidised tickets are for those who are unable to pay the full price.

"If you live within the National Forest, which covers parts of Derbyshire, Staffordshire and Leicestershire, you are eligible for a 25 per cent discount on standard and supporter festival tickets."
