Taxis
If you are coming/going by taxi, please make sure you have booked before you leave home with the following information:

- Your pick and drop off point will be within the park, the route will be clearly sign posted. Please do not allow your taxi driver to drop you off on the surrounding roads - they are high-speed and dangerous.
- At the end of the night your taxi will be parked in a numbered row in the same area that they dropped you off. Please speak to your driver at the end of the concert to find out which row the vehicle is parked in – this will help us and you to find your taxi.
