If you are looking to catch a ferry back to the mainland, be mindful that once the festival finishes, wait times for buses could be up to 45 minutes because of the volume of people coming out of the festival site all at once. Please take this into account when planning your journey back to ferry ports and other parts of the island where you may need to make a travel connection. Give yourself plenty of time. Leaving the festival slightly early is advised if you need to make a connection.

Please note, all festival buses will be cashless in 2026.
