How it works

Tickets for BLF events are sold on an event-by-event basis, which means that tickets must be purchased separately for each event that you wish to attend. You can buy tickets online or via the Box Office.

As part of our commitment to being an environmentally ethical festival BLF does not post out paper tickets. Tickets are sent via email ahead of the event and can be shown on a smartphone or other device at the event. You can also print these tickets at home if you would prefer.

The price of tickets varies by event. Prices will be clearly stated against each individual event listing. All ticket prices include VAT and booking fee, so what you see is what you pay.
