Families

Bring the whole family to Into the Trees, where there’s fun for all ages!

Children under 12 enjoy a heavily discounted ticket, and there’s a packed programme of activities to keep them entertained all weekend.

All kids’ activities in Into the Trees are FREE, so there’s something for everyone to enjoy.

Plus, did we mention Tramlines has no camping – so there’s no faff!

Sheffield’s Tramlines has built a reputation as a family friendly space where parents can take the kids to their first music festival

The Star, Sheffield

Throughout the weekend there were plenty of things going on including craft activities, circus skills and breakdancing lessons – all of which are free to take part in.

Tramlines is unique - because it really IS Sheffield. It gets the vibe of the city, it doesn’t pretend to be something it’s not

FAQ's

Can I bring a chair?

Unfortunately you can’t bring chairs into Tramlines, there is plenty of seating available at the festival

Can I bring a pram?

Yes, bringing a pram is fine! However, you can’t bring trolleys/wagons.

Can I drop the kids off and then come back for the evening?

Tramlines has a no entry policy in place. However, if you visit the Customer Service tent, they will allow parents to leave and re-enter the festival in order to drop their kids off at home.

You will need to return to the festival before last entry at 7.30pm and will be subject to all the normal search procedures.

Can I bring my own food & drink?

Unfortunately you can’t bring your own food & drink to Tramlines, except a sealed 500ml bottle of water or an empty water bottle. We have plenty of food & drink traders at the festival (and in the kids area) that cater for all dietary requirements.

Travel and Parking

Please plan ahead before attending Tramlines. Tramlines is a metropolitan festival so please make use of the brilliant public transport options as all the local streets are closed for resident access only.

However you can purchase car parking from our website HERE that are only a 10 minute walk away.

An added bonus is that it’s a proper hardstanding car park, so there’s no worry about getting stuck in it like a muddy festival!

What time do the Headliners finish?

Because we are a metropolitan festival and need to respect our neighbours, the headliners finish at 10.30pm Fri/Sat and 9.30pm on Sunday.
