Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Weston-Super-Mare!
Myself and five friends came to this event,. I cannot say enough how much we enjoyed ourselves. The event was run brilliantly, you hardly had to queue for anything. The bar ran short of cider but the staff soon popped and restocked. A fabulous atmosphere, groups, families, there was something here for everyone. I really hope it becomes an annual thing as you can count us being here every year xx
Please note the prices at the venue were high but the cost of the event ticket was very reasonable so all in all extremely good value xx

Absolutely jokes regarding food /alcohol selection would not show me the bottle of so called wine they poured me at £25 a bottle tasted like vinegar, don't mind paying those prices at 02 or Wembley but for a gig basically in a large car park no thanks, some of the bands were OK, as long as you were front of stage, terrible atmosphere in general, OK toilet facilities apart from that don't recommend.

Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Weston-Super-Mare!
Ticket prices were good but drink prices were very expensive.
Good choice of food vendors although limited gluten free options.
Most Acts were brilliant the Beatles were very disappointing compared to the rest.

Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Weston-Super-Mare!
The acts were very good, much better than I was expecting.
My only complaint was the drinks - very little choice ie. Only 1 lager, no beer and by mid-afternoon they ran out of cider and because we were a captive audience they were charging a lot more than they should.

Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Weston-Super-Mare!
The drinks were ridiculously over priced. No beer(ale) no cans of soft drinks, no alcholo free options. Ran out of all beers/ciders at 4pm when event goes on until 10.00. Badly organised concessions.

Flooring at the Tropicana very unsteady underfoot and extremely dusty. Unsure why we cannot come and go from the venue considering there were people manning the doors throughout the event.

Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Weston-Super-Mare!
The ground was very dusty and full of stones .
Food and drink was extortionate prices. We should have been allowed to bring our own food and soft drinks. Also to leave and re enter too.
Other than that was great music and great atmosphere.

Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Weston-Super-Mare!
It was good to see something like this come to Weston and it was well supported but there were a number of issues - The Tropicana - the floor needs sorting out - people in wheelchairs really really struggling. Very dusty but it is sheltered from the wind. The no return policy is appalling - a friend had to go and take medication and wasn't let back in - really bad - would be easy to manage. Especially with the number of security staff - that was good. The prices were a rip off - £6 for a can of Thatchers - could be £3 and a profit would still be made. Also, ran out of a lot of drinks by early afternoon - Thatchers, Bud etc. not great -the company knew numbers of tickets sold and that were booked, should have accounted for that. Music was generally good - some acts were better than others - shame that the advertising mentioned the Rolling Stones and Oasis. Neither of which appeared. Once the crowd got going it was generally a good and happy place to be. Would I go again? Sure but changes need to be made.

Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Weston-Super-Mare!
Ticket was overpriced for a no re-entry event that lasted all day. The food and drink was overpriced for what it was. There was no list before hand of what artists were playing and when which meant we had to attend at 12 for an artist playing at 9pm. Some of the artists advertised were not there (oasis and the TBA). All in all a rip off.

Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Weston-Super-Mare!
The bands were ok except The Beetles can’t be classed as an 80’s band. The ground inside the Tropicana was very, very rough and dusty and the wind blew the dust in everyone’s eyes. The ticket prices were great. The ‘inside’ prices for food and drink were boarderline, if not actual profiteering. The toilets need to be spread around more and clear pathways kept for easier access to them. Finally we should be able to re-enter the venue. We have dogs that needed to be let out so had to leave early. If we could, we’d have gone home and sorted them and then come back. All in all a good-ish day but not sure I’ll do it again because it was so horribly expensive and the above problems need to be sorted out.

Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Weston-Super-Mare!
Very well run festival. Staff were very friendly and helpful. queues were short. There was a good choice of food stalls and coeliacs were catered for. We went VIP and it was definitely worth it with own area and toilets and bar and it wasn't oversold (unlike other events). Will go again
