Review of EH6 Festival Tickets
I bought VIP tickets for this event on the promise of having a bar area which would be used by myself and the bands. This area did not exist!
Instead the VIP experience consisted of two free cans of beer and a voucher for a burger or a hot dog or chips (without curry sauce). I didn't feel very important.
At the Biscuit factory the craft beer ran out by 8pm on Saturday and the queues for drinks at other bars was ridiculous, upstairs it took 40 minutes to get served and even then there was a limited selection of drinks all of which came in half pint glasses (not what you want at a gig) as the pint glasses had run out.
I liked the grungy feel of the venue and being small it did let you feel close to the bands even at the back which in turn meant the atmosphere was good.
In summary to bill this event as a food, craft beer and music festival was misleading as it only delivered on one of these and the VIP element did not exist. Very disappointing!

Review of EH6 Festival Tickets
My friends and I were really disapointed that this event was not what it was advertised as. Having purchased VIP tickets with the promise of VIP bar area with bands , food, and first to know info im sorry to say that a free beer ( I drink spirits) no VIP bar area with bands and a hot dog/hamburger from a van did not merit the extra cost for VIP. To make matters worse one of our party who is an avid punk fan and had been looking forward to seeing Sham 69 who turned out to be Shan 69 as no one was actually in the original band line up !!!! on the whole the bands were doing their bit to entertain however a freezing venue, bar running out of drinks and poor VIP service made this a bit of a let down.

Review of EH6 Festival Tickets
This event was a scsm. The music was good. The good festival was a burger van. The VIP tickets got you 2 free beers. Not what was advertised. The security was shocking. Health and safety was shocking. There wsd no lighting on the stairs and they were covered im broken glass . Tho organiserd should not be permitted to operate again

Review of EH6 Festival Tickets
For a brewery sponsored music fest, they struggled to organise the preverbal piss-up....
The multiple venues were far too far apart, so spent the day at The Biscuit factory, the 2 stages there made it the best option available.
All drinks venues were closed by 7pm except the 2 small Krafty brew bars that lead to massive queues for some nasty beer & warm cider.

Review of EH6 Festival Tickets
Really good event.
Great local bands and some well known acts too.
Could have done with more publicity as a lot of the locals didn't know it was on and there were no posters in the area advertising it.
The toilets were a bit rubbish downstairs at the biscuit factory with most not locking and no loo roll but that was a minor point to a really good event. Thumbs up!
