Whats On Hertford

Entry information
Hertford Castle events are FREE of charge to attend, however visitors are welcome to donate to the Mayor of Hertford’s Charity Appeal Fund: https://www.hertford.gov.uk/the-mayor-of-hertford/.

The Castle grounds can be accessed by foot at any of the following pedestrian gates: Castle Street, St Andrew Street Car Park, Main Castle Gate off The Wash or through the Moat Garden on Castle Street.

Travelling to the Event
Hertford Town Council declared a Climate Emergency in July 2023 and has committed to taking action to protect human health and our natural world to the maximum extent its powers allow. We therefore encourage people to come to our events by public or active transport. The two Hertford railway stations, Hertford North and Hertford East, are a short walk from the Castle, and bus services are available to the Wash and Hertford bus station. Please visit National Rail for live train times and Intalink for bus routes.

Parking
Unfortunately, there is no public parking at Hertford Castle (including disabled) but there are a number of car parks close to the Castle. For more information on public parking please click here: https://www.hertford.gov.uk/public-parking/
