Yes we do!

You must buy all other tickets you require for the festival as you need the ticket codes to apply for the Essential Companion ticket. You also need to have a Nimbus Access Card (APPLY FOR THIS HERE), or a FREE Paradhis / Quick Panda Productions Access Digital Pass (APPLY HERE). Once you have purchased all tickets you require, and you have your pass you can apply for the Essential Companion ticket here

This pass is linked to, and can only be used alongside, the event ticket used by the cared for person. As such, the Essential Companion and the cared for person cannot enter the event separately and must stay within reasonable proximity of each other at all times.

An Essential Companion must be an able-bodied person aged 18yrs or over, and they must assist and carry out full and safe ‘duty of care’ for the cared for person, at all times.

Please note, if you purchase your Essential Companion ticket – we cannot offer refunds.

The Essential Companion ticket is for festival entry only.

If you are the Essential Companion for a child – you must purchase an adult ticket, and the child will receive the EC ticket.

How do I apply for a free digital access pass?

To apply for your Free Digital Access Pass, please click here and go through the simple registration form and upload any validating evidence about your access requirements.

Remember, you will only have to do this once and it will last for 3 years for your Paradhis application!

What's the difference between an Access Card and a Free Digital Access Pass?

An Access Card is a universal way of conveying your access requirement with organisations and ticketing systems in the UK and beyond. You can purchase an Access Card for £15 for 3 years and this covers you for any event or attraction that are part of the Nimbus scheme.

The Paradhis Digital Access Pass is a free way of conveying your access requirements, but is locked to Quick Panda Productions Events and cannot be used for any other event or attraction. You still go through the same process but receive a digital number and no card. It lasts for 3 years, and you can always upgrade to a full Access Card at any point.

I have an Nimbus Access Card already - what do I need to do?

You must make sure you have purchased all other tickets you require, then apply for your requirements here
