I’ve been to indoor city festivals before and spent the majority of my time queuing to get in and feeling disappointed, will that be the same here?

No not at all. We’re passionate about making sure that our customers have a great experience at Mutations Festival. We limit the sellable capacity of our festival to that of the operating venues so as to minimise queuing time at venues and make sure you can catch more of the action throughout the whole day.

Do I need a separate ticket for each venue?

No. You can purchase either single day tickets which will provide access to all venues and shows on that day, a weekend ticket which will provide access to all venues and shows over the Friday and Saturday weekend or an ‘All Week’ ticket which will provide access to all venues and shows over the full Tuesday to Saturday week.
