Leave your expectations at home
We promise, you'll have more fun.
Bring some costumes
It’s a fancy dress party for goodness sakes! Check the year’s theme.
Prepare for rain
That way when it rains on your parade, you won't mind.
Lodgings
There is a lot of space for camping at SGP (as the Brits call it) and it's really the only way to enjoy the festival. Some people have been known to book a BnB or hotel nearby, but that's sheer snobbery. Get stuck in, socialise and brave a possibly damp night in a tent. It will make the whole experience even more special.
Dine at SoulFire Restaurant
This is a festival dining experience you won’t want to miss.
Getting There
Most visitors arrive by train to the Huntingdon train station and take a taxi ride to Mill Hill Field in Abbots Ripton. Secret Garden Partiers are a friendly group, so check their Facebook page to inquire about carpooling.
