Come Together Opens at Newcastle's Town Moor With Last-Minute Rule Change

The debut two-day festival runs cashless under strict entry and safety rules.

Overview

  • Gates for day one opened at 1:30pm with queues forming early, final entry is 9pm and there is no re-admission.
  • Hours before opening, organisers said camping chairs are now allowed except in the Golden Circle, reversing earlier guidance.
  • The site operates entirely cashless, and published bar prices include pints at £7.50 alongside listed wine, spirits and soft drinks.
  • Festival safety rules prohibit moshing and crowd surfing, limit bags to A4 size and ban items such as glass, aerosols, drones and large liquids.
  • Robbie Williams is scheduled to headline the main stage at 9pm across a three-stage setup that returns Friday with Kings of Leon.
