Return coaches are available from Bristol, Brighton, London, Birmingham, Manchester and Sheffield.

All coaches and coach tickets are for departures on the Thursday of the event. All tickets include return travel on the Monday after the show.

REMINDER:  If you have a Shambala Express adult ticket at any tier you must come by coach. Your discounted festival ticket will not be valid for entry if you do not arrive on the coach. No ifs, no buts, no entry. If for any reason you now cannot come on the coach your only choice is to get a refund from The Ticket Sellers as soon as possible (only available in advance of the event subject to T&Cs).

Your booking confirmation will have been sent from TheTicketSellers our sole booking agent, but please note your e-tickets for the Shambala Express will be delivered by our coach travel partner Tuned In Travel. You can expect these tickets to arrive approximately 72 hrs in advance of departure, whilst all your other event e-tickets will be sent by TheTicketSellers. You will need your Tuned In Travel coach tickets when boarding the coach. These will be scanned at the departure point and issued a Shambala Express wristband. Please keep this wristband on all weekend and show when getting on your return coach.

Coach journeys may be subject to any government public transport guidelines around mask wearing etc – again, we’ll keep coach bookers posted on any relevant updates around this.

Please pack sensibly as luggage restrictions apply. You must be able to carry your luggage (see T&Cs for more info). The coaches have a limited storage space and weight capacity, stewards may require you to leave luggage behind. There are shops and good bars onsite where you can buy all you need.
