Glossop is accessible by train from Central Manchester Piccadilly if you are coming by train please note many of our venues are in walking distance of the train station, so it may be easier to come by rail.
Festival Venues
Our main venue is Glossop High Street in 2025 we are running a Lite Festival and don’t have plans for Large exhibition spaces.
Accessibility
Most of our workshop and exhibition venues have been selected to be accessible however because this is an old mill town not all venues are accessible to wheelchair users. All workshop venues have a stairlift and have been selected to make sure wheelchair users can access the venues.
Please check on the information / event booking and if you have any questions please email us or if you need additional support, please let us know. We are aiming to make this as accessible as possible to everyone.
Make a weekend of it
Not only do we have lots of festival activities that could keep you busy all weekend, Glossop is known as the gateway to the Peaks, from here you can walk in the surrounding hills and reach other parts of the Peak District.
