How to Get to Henham Park
By train: the nearest station is Halesworth on the East Suffolk line (Ipswich–Lowestoft), with a dedicated festival shuttle bus to the site. Capacity at Halesworth is very limited on Thursday, Friday and Monday, so Greater Anglia advises travelling via Diss (on the London–Norwich main line) on those days. From London Liverpool Street, allow around 2–2.5 hours door to door.
By shuttle bus: BorderBus shuttles run from Southwold, Kessingland, Halesworth station, Halesworth town and Beccles. Day tickets allow unlimited travel until 1am — and there’s a 20% discount if you buy in April.
By car: Henham Park sits just off the A12 between Ipswich and Lowestoft. Parking passes are available, but expect queues at peak arrival times on Thursday and Friday.
Luggage Storage for Latitude Festival 2026
