Arriving to the Latitude Festival By Car

First off the postcode for all you sat navvers out there is NR34 8AN.

DON’T FOLLOW YOUR SAT NAV ALL THE WAY!!! There are many routes into Henham Park, where the festival is being held and your sat nav could really confuse things. Once your approaching Southwold there are signs posted all over the place directing you the right way.

Henham Park, the site of Latitude Festival, is between the A12 and A145 north of Blythburgh in Suffolk. From the A12 and from the A145 follow the festival signs. Please do not stop on the A12 or the A145 but follow the signage straight into the car parks.

  • Those travelling from the south on the A12 will be directed straight into site from the A12
  • Those travelling from the Lowestoft direction will be directed straight into site from the A145
  • Those travelling south on the A145 from the Beccles direction will be directed straight into site from the A145
  • There is absolutely no stopping on the A145 and the A12. Tickets will be checked inside the site and not on the junctions with the A12 and A145. There is no access via the A145 Northbound

Arriving to the Latitude Festival By Train
