Parking
There is NO on-site parking. Limited disabled parking will be on Quarry Road within a coned-off area.
Nearby public car parks can be found in Old Town, Regent Circus & Town Center.
Accessibility
The park is fully accessible with ramping to all areas. Some areas are grass so therefore may be cumbersome in rain. Some areas can be uneven and due caution should be used. Parking zones along Quarry Road will be coned-off for disabled parking.
Alcohol Policy
We have bars onsite which are run by Pride, which means 100% of the profits help us keep the event FREE.
There is an option to bring a limited amount of your own alcohol to the event. Please review out Alcohol Policy as searches will be carried out on entry to the park.
Food
We have a variety of fabulous food outlets on site but if you would really like to carry your own picnic with you then please do. To keep the event clean, tidy and enjoyable for everyone, please use the general waste and recycling bins provided on site.
Remember any wines / beers etc in a picnic will fall under our alcohol policy. (Did we mention we have a bar as well?)
Is The Event Suitable For Children?
Pride is inclusive of all. Children are welcome, especially with accompanying adults.
Can I bring my dog?
We asked one pooch for their opinion and they said:- “To us dogs The Bowl is noisy, smelly confusion. It gets very busy and crowded and it is no place for us much loved pets. We get trodden on, tripped over, fed totally inappropriate bits of left-over human food (which we don't mind but our owners do).”
