Unfortunately we can’t issue you with a refund if you can’t make the event due to work commitments or your mates have dropped out. In these circumstances, we advise passing on your tickets privately to avoid losing out on the money spent.

Refunds can only be offered if the event is cancelled or postponed, as agreed upon purchase.

Payment Plan tickets aren't currently available for this event.

No, Midstock is a non camping festival so camping equipment is not needed. It is however close to the city centre so there is plenty of alternative accommodation to choose from.
