Travel map
We’ve created this interactive travel map to help you plan your journey. The map shows local car parks, walking routes and train stations.
By train
This is by far the easiest way to get to Lazydays Festival with two direct train lines that get you here in under an hour from London.
c2c (via Southend Central)
The c2c line runs frequent services from London Fenchurch Street and East London to Southend Central.
From here, you can either take the festival’s free shuttle bus to the gate or enjoy a 30-minute walk if you’d rather stretch your legs.
This is the best option if you’re travelling from the City of London, Canary Wharf, or Basildon, with typical journey times of around 55 minutes from London.
For more information please visit www.c2c-online.co.uk
Greater Anglia (via Prittlewell)
You can catch direct trains from London Liverpool Street or Stratford towards Prittlewell - the closest station to Lazydays Festival.
From Prittlewell, it’s just a 5–10 minute walk to Priory Park, making this a great choice if you want the shortest stroll to the site on arrival.
This route tends to be quickest for visitors from central and East London, Essex towns like Chelmsford or Shenfield, and places along the Greater Anglia network, with journey times often under an hour from central London.

Please check back here at a later date for final train departure times from Prittlewell and Southend Central over the festival weekend.
