Taste of London Accessibility

View our Taste of London Access Guide here.

Festival site description

All our entrances are accessible and step-free. We are working to make Taste of London as accessible as possible. However, Taste of London is an outdoor event within a park that could pose problems for mobility (particularly in wet weather). Please see below an image of the terrain across the site.

If you find queueing difficult and require a faster entry to the festival upon arrival with your personal assistant please make yourself known to a steward at the gate who will be able to direct you to our accessible queuing lane. This will also be signposted for your convenience.

Please note that there are bag searches in operation at all of our entrances.

Queues can be expected at some of our most popular restaurants throughout the event and therefore customers may extend past the ramps and marquee and guests will be asked to queue on the grass.

Please note that Taste of London can include flashing lights, flash photography and music throughout the festival.

Personal Assistant/Companion tickets for our accessible guests are admitted free to Taste of London. If you require a personal assistant ticket, please contact See Tickets Customer Services at www.seetickets.com/customerservice who will be happy to assist you with booking this in. Please note that free personal assistant tickets will only be given when accompanying a purchased adult ticket.

Personal assistant tickets include entry into the festival only, and do not include dish vouchers or complimentary drinks.

Please be prepared to present the relevant documentation to support your ticket request. This will be assessed on a case-by-case basis.

Examples of relevant documentation are as follows:

• DLA (Disability Living Allowance)
• PIP (Personal Independence Payment)
• Evidence of registered severely sight impaired (blind)
• CredAbility Access Card (with +1 icon)
• Copy of Attendance Allowance letter
• Recognised Assistance Dog ID card
• Any other relevant documentation

All documents provided must show your full name and be dated from no older than 2022.

The above scheme and facilities are for customers with permanent/long-term access requirements and are not for people with temporary impairments such as broken bones, healing wounds or people who are pregnant.

Personal Assistants attending through this scheme need to be 18 years old by the start of the festival.

Assistance Dogs

Taste of London is committed to making sure the event is as inclusive and accessible to all and we understand that some customers will rely on an assistance dog to attend our events.

Taste of London can be crowded and at times loud, creating an unpleasant environment for animals. For these reasons, we do not permit our customers to bring non-assistance animals with them.

Taste of London reserves the right to turn away dogs at the gate who do not comply with Assistance Dogs UK guidelines surrounding assistance dogs.

In order to ensure the smoothest entry possible, we would ask customers to contact our customer service team so that they can help facilitate your entry at the festival and provide necessary information regarding the venue.
