How do I get a ticket to the festival?
You don’t need a ticket for the Godiva Festival.  Simply just turn up.



Can I bring my own alcohol to the festival?
Please do not bring alcohol to the festival

The law states that it is an offence to drink alcohol in a public place in Coventry. However, for the duration of the festival, alcohol may be purchased and consumed within an enclosed area of the War Memorial Park.

A section of the festival will be fenced and patrons will be subject to searches as a condition of entry.

Alcohol purchased elsewhere will not be allowed into the fenced area.

Those found in possession of drugs or weapons will be reported to the police and will face exclusion and arrest.

Any one appearing drunk or likely to cause crime or disorder will be refused entry.

The event management and their representatives reserve the right to refuse entry.
