WILD
SWIMMING
Unity Fest is taking place right next to, and on, the River Eden. Throughout the festival group Wild Swims will be listed on the festival timetable when we will have dedicated crew down on the riverbank and in the water to help keep an eye on you.
Now whilst this creates for a beautiful setting, we would like to take a moment to highlight the dangers of rivers and flowing water.
Whilst it might look tempting to want to jump in, please bear in mind that riverbanks can be very slippery and cause for an accident, and the water itself can be very cold with fast flowing currents and can be very dangerous.
Roadtrippers Events / Unity Fest takes the health and safety of everyone very seriously. In fact, it is our number one priority.
As such, we do not encourage you to enter the river, especially if alone or intoxicated. Throughout the festival anyone entering the river will do so completely at their own risk.
If you do want to go wild swimming, we suggest that you only enter the water at the arranged group Wild Swims listed on the festival timetable when we will have dedicated crew down on the riverbank and in the water to help keep an eye on you, but please do remember that there is no lifeguard on duty and participation is completely at your own risk.
CIRCUS SKILLS
WORKSHOP
Join in the fun and laughter at our Circus Skills Workshop. You’ll be clowning about as you get some informal instruction and a chance to try diabolo, juggling, poi, plate spinning, devil sticks, possibly unicycle and big stilt.
This workshop is suitable for all ages and abilities and is guaranteed to be FUN!
PADDLEBOARDING
