Carpooling:
- Share the journey, share the cost and start the festival fun from the minute you get in the car. If you’re planning to drive to the festival and have a spare seat in your car register for Liftshare and you offer up your empty spots. If you’re looking for a seat in someone else’s car register for Liftshare and see if you can make a match. Not only will you help reduce congestion on the roads to the festival, you’ll save money, make friends and if you’re driving an average sized petrol car, having four people in it will bring your CO2 emissions per person to less than travelling by train! So it really does make a difference if you fill up all the seats. Remember to read our tips on safe Liftshare etiquette. For more information visit https://www.liftshare.com/uk/
