What do I do upon arrival?
Take your ticket to the wristband exchange in the Rock Café at the Dunoon Passenger Ferry terminal where it will be exchanged for a wristband which will be put on for you. Don’t take it off at all over the weekend as this will gain you entrance each day. Damaged wristbands may be exchanged but do not lose them because they cannot be replaced.
DOORS - OPENING TIMES
The Festival kicks off at 12:00pm on FRIDAY - A full programme will be published nearer the time of the festival on Facebook.
Re-Entry?
Once you have exchanged your ticket for a wristband you are free to come and go as you please. Towards the end of each evening, security may restrict entry – i.e. at a 11:00pm finish the last entrance may be 9.30pm
​
Smoking?
In accordance with UK law all performance venues are no smoking areas, there are designated outdoor smoking areas at each of the venues.
​
Accessibility?
The MAIN festival area is fully accessible to all. Across the full festival there are multiple venues used. Both POTP Festival and the venue operators are committed to ensuring that everybody has access to all areas. We are happy to provide advice and assistance.

Health & Safety
Your safety and well being whilst at POTP is our primary concern. Please read our statement.
Bars / Food?
Drinks and food are provided by the venues and the POTP festival has no say in pricing or menus. There will be a bar in each venue and many separate bars nearby. There are many coffee shops which sells cakes and sandwiches and cafes/restaurants for main meals. Our venues are placed close by to Dunoon's town centre, therefore, shops, pubs, bars, cafes and restaurants are all in walking distance.
Are cameras allowed inside the venue?
Cameras for personal use are permitted in the venues. These are defined as small compact digital cameras or phone cameras etc. Professional or Semi Professional cameras including Digital SLRs are not permitted. The public are not allowed to take photo’s from the pit and no professional photographers or photography will be allowed without prior permission.
Please contact Iain Kilgallon at punkonthepeninsula@gmail.com if you require press accreditation or are unsure of our photography policy.
Who is playing and what day to they play on?
As bands are confirmed, we’ll post them on the LINE-UP page and also announce them on Facebook. We cannot confirm which day a band is playing until all the bands are booked and the days / stages have been sorted out. So whilst a band maybe advertised as confirmed, please don’t ask us when / where / what time they will be playing. We will update the LINE-UP page to show this information as soon as it is ready. Until this is up on the site it is not possible to tell you what bands play on a particular day.
Accommodation - Where Can I stay?
Dunoon is a busy UK seaside resort and has many hotels, bed & breakfasts, self catering and guest houses. There are lots of inexpensive accommodation options in Dunoon, many of which are adjacent to the venues. We also have secured camping facilities for a dedicated and secure POTP campsite - so check out our Travel & Accommodation page for accommodation to suit your budget.
