Can I add a donation to my booking, and where will it go?
When booking a ticket for the Livestream, you will be given the option to add a donation to your order, in denominations of 2, 5 and 10 of the currency you are booking in.
Your donations will be split equally between the Festival’s main three supported causes, Oxfam, Greenpeace and WaterAid.
The Festival’s joint charities share a common goal of working together for people and the planet, by taking action against some of the biggest challenges of our time like climate change and the impact of the pandemic. Together, we are working with communities around the world who have been hit the hardest, to deliver solutions that save lives and overcome injustice, but we need your help to make a real difference.
Just a £5 donation could help pay for a tap to pipe clean water to a household in Southern Africa, changing the lives of a whole family whilst £10 could buy a hygiene kit with the basics everyone needs to survive and thrive from soap to sanitary pads. Please give what you can.
