Disabled rock fan left Download Festival after a day due to 'appalling' conditions

A disabled woman who visited this year’s Download Festival has shared her heartbreak after having to leave after 24 hours due to the conditions of the event. Die-hard rock fan Koren Miller explained that she was appalled by the “extremely poor” conditions.

The 31-year-old had visited the rock festival at Donnington Park for the past six years as a non-accessible campsite user. However, with a worsening health condition, which has affected her ability to walk long distances, among other things, she decided to use the accessible campsite this year for the first time, reports Derbyshire Live.

Koren was let down by her experience at the music event after the information about the campsite promised so much that didn’t take place, despite being aware that the previous accessible camping facilities at Download had won awards.
