CLOAKROOM & CLOTHING
Waterworks festival takes place on Gunnersbury Park, which is an open-air green-field site. It has some limited pavement, gravel, and tarmac paths on the peripheral entrances and exits, however, most of the space consists of grass and green space. While there will be some sheltered areas, it is predominantly an open-air event, with most stages uncovered - we would advise all attendees to be prepared for the unpredictable and increasingly adverse British summer weather.
