ACCESS TO ENF

We look forward to welcoming you to ENF 2025 and will do all we can make it as memorable and enjoyable an event as possible.

This website is almost always the most comprehensive and up to date source for information so please do check there if you have questions about venues, events, tickets or anything else you want help with. If you cannot find what you need, the best way to ask us anything is on email via from on the the ‘Stay in Touch’ page.

OUR COMMITMENT

We believe that live music is not only one of the greatest pleasures in life but offers life enhancing benefits to all who attend it. We aim to make this available to the widest array of people through our events, especially those who for whatever reason may face challenges in attending.

• • Every ENF venue is accessible by wheelchair or walking aid except in very, very unusual circumstances (which will be clearly explained on our publicity).
  • We publish access information for all our venues and events on our website.
  • Our team of professional stewards is very happy to help.
  • We ensure that accessible toilets are available.

OUR LIMITATIONS

VENUES: ENF is a small festival which takes place in lots of different spaces, none of which is a formal concert venue. As every venue has its quirks we ask anyone with exceptional needs to contact us with any concerns or questions before booking. We can advise and assist.

SOUND: Most of ENF’s events are acoustic and small-scale music and we put it in intimate venues so the audience gets as close as possible to the music: that is what makes us special. That does also mean that we need to safeguard the audiences’ listening experience, so with regret:

• • We cannot accommodate any equipment that makes continuous or intermittent noise in most venues e.g. ventilators. If this affects you and you would like to find out which events are open to you please email us via the ‘Get in Touch’ form on our website.
  • We put a lowest age limit of 7 years old for most events: we appreciate that parents may want to introduce their children to live music as early as possible, but a risk of disturbance to other attenders or performances has been found in the past so we hope you understand.
