Pick-up in Ipswich, drop-off at Reading Festival
Pick-up is at your door anywhere in Ipswich or the Suffolk towns and villages around it, with the driver named the day before and a text when the car is outside. At Reading Festival we drop at the official drop-off point, or the meeting corner we agree for the August bank holiday festival when the roads around the venue are closed.
The drive is about 115 miles; the driver checks closures and event-day traffic orders and picks the fastest route on the day, so the time above already allows for normal traffic.
Reading Festival to Ipswich: the journey home
Reading Festival to Ipswich is the same fixed fare as the outbound leg. Book both legs together and the driver waits at the agreed meeting point at the end of the August bank holiday festival, however late it runs; the driver takes you back to your door in Ipswich. Waiting time is included in the return price and the fare does not change for the finish time.
Event days at Reading Festival
For the August bank holiday festival we plan around the venue, not the postcode: the drop-off point that is actually open, the corner we meet on afterwards, and a departure time that beats the car-park queue. An 8-seater takes the whole group from Ipswich for little more than two saloons, and a wait-and-return price keeps the same driver on site for the day. Late finishes are normal for us; the fare is the same at 1am.
