Travel & Venue
Knebworth Park
Since RecFest’s inception, we have tried and tested various vibrant venues that break the traditional corporate event mould and this year is no different.
RecFest will be held in the iconic Knebworth Park, renowned worldwide for its rock gigs which have hosted the likes of Queen, Oasis and The Rolling Stones, we thought Knebworth would be the perfect venue for our industry’s own hard working rock stars to gather for a day of discovery and fun in the sun.
How to get to Knebworth Park
Train
The nearest rail station is Stevenage, two miles from Knebworth Park. Trains run to Stevenage Station from London’s Kings Cross and St Pancras Station around every 15 minutes.
There will be organised shuttles from 07:30am to 9:00pm on a loop between the RecFest Venue (Knebworth Park) and Stevenage Station. We have multiple shuttles, so we do not anticipate the wait time to be very long if a shuttle is not present.
When you pass through the exit barriers at Stevenage Station, turn right. We have dedicated staff at Stevenage Station to guide RecFest attendees to the coach pick up point..
*Please note that shuttles will only be going from Stevenage station and NOT Knebworth Station.
