Steelhouse Festival is a rock festival and, by the nature of its genre, sometimes unsuitable for younger children. Children 14 and under are charged a reduced ticket price to enter the arena but must be accompanied by an adult at all times. We advise you to write your mobile number on the wristband of your children so that we can contact you if they become lost.

Anyone under 18 years of age is not able to buy a ticket or attend the festival alone. Attendees under 18 will need to be accompanied by an adult over the age of 18. 

The maximum of four attendees under 18 can accompany a single adult when attending. In all cases, please ensure you have I.D. available for inspection. 

Please note that we are operating a challenge 21 system.

Guests may be searched on entry to the event. If you are in possession of illegal substances you will be refused entry and may be arrested. 

Situated on the edge of the Brecon Beacons national park, the festival sits on a mountain enveloped by lovely countryside and breathtaking mountains. 

The stage will present world-class artists against a backdrop of the heart of the Welsh Valleys. Please be aware however, that access to other parts of the site other than the car park, campsite and festival arena is strictly prohibited.

Any trespassing on other parts of the land may result in you being asked to leave the site.

Please note that Hafod-y-Dafal is a working farm and we have a duty to respect this environment.

Please note: Animals (with the exception of registered assistance dogs) are not permitted on the site.

Steelhouse Festival will allow Campervans/Live-in vehicles into the appropriate section of the campsite. A Campervan Person (per person) is required for all persons staying on this site. A Campervan/Live-in vehicle is one which is specifically adapted for living and sleeping in, such as a Campervan, Motorhome, Caravan or Trailer Tent. Strictly no cars or vans (with a mattress in the back) - cars will not be allowed onto the campsite unless towing a caravan/trailer tent. STRICTLY NO TENTS ALLOWED IN THIS SITE.

The area for camping is used as farmland for the rest of the year so it doesn’t have power. There is a limited containered water supply available (please ensure that you fill up your water tanks and empty your waste before arriving on-site as resources are limited). We must run the camping areas this way to comply with the event license, and other health and safety regulations.

Please note, Campervans/Live-in vehicles are not available for hire.

Early arrival to the Campervan/Live-in Vehicle site is permitted between 6pm - 9pm on Thursday 24th July 2025.

If the thought of camping fills you with dread, we have compiled a list of local B&B's and hotels. All available from our accommodation page here. 

 

Any lost property handed into the festival is kept at the site office, situated backstage, and will be kept there until 4pm on the Monday 28th July 2025. Any remaining lost property is taken offsite after that time. 

If you have lost anything, please email us and give as full a description of the lost item/s, where you think you might have lost it/them and your contact details.

Please help us keep the Steelhouse Festival tidy – Hafod-y-Dafal is a working farm and we want to treat the land with respect! 

Absolutely no glass whatsoever is allowed on the entire festival site – this includes the camping areas. Prior to arrival, please decant any wine or spirits into plastic bottles before you proceed to the camping areas. Recycling bins will be available in the campsites and throughout the festival site for recycling plastic, card and tin.

Any areas where you cannot smoke will have ‘no smoking’ signs - please adhere to them.
