A. Bringing alcohol into the Helifest site is strictly prohibited. We have a fully licensed bar and cocktail bar serving alcohol as well as a variety of other food and drinks vendors serving refreshments throughout the day. To support our local vendors, we would appreciate you not bringing your own picnics and flasks but instead enjoy refreshments from the stands available.

Q. How can I prepare for the Cornish weather?

A. Helifest is taking place in an open field. We will have some stands and activities taking place in large marquees, but the event will predominantly be outdoors. With the typically unpredictable Cornish weather, we recommend bringing along some waterproofs as well as sun cream.

Q. Is there a schedule for the day?

A. There will be a schedule available for the day which includes a full and exciting music line up as well as meet and greet opportunities with Air Crew Andy and demonstrations from the crew.
