Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Hastings!

Appart from fantastic Elton John the music was ok. The Spice Girls were shocking. We left at 8pm so missed Abba and Queen who were probably good. Toilets were good. Could have been more food stalls on offer. Suppose you get what you pay for. Vibe was great tho.

As already mentioned draft beers ran out after only 2 hours of opening and i felt for the bar staff having to keep apologising, not a lot of food choices either, especially for kids . Music not as advertised but we had good fun.

Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Hastings!

When I attended this festival all drinks & food was removed from people. I saw security removing packets of sweets/crisps from children which was disgraceful, you couldn't buy sweets at the event. Security was rude & their behaviour was disgraceful. Later in the evening I saw security walking around with childrens sweet lollipops in their mouths, can't evidence but I bet they were the seized sweets. The line up was changed, people should be told about this. Drinks were sold out 2 hours after it started, water later on. You couldn't buy water & there was no access to get any from half way through. There was not enough food stations for the amount of people & security would not allow you to leave the event & then re enter. I left with my friends 2-3 hours before it finished to get food & drinks. This was the same as an event I have been to before & I will not be attending the pier again.

Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Hastings!

Absolute s**tshow from beginning to end. Only 3 stalls for food with an hour queue on all and the beer on tap ran out at 3.00pm. The Overbearing Security created a terrible atmosphere and throwing people out for the smallest thing.

Review of An Outdoor Orchestral Rendition of Dr Dre: 2001

Was grossly miss sold! Brought tickets to see an orchestra & well they was everything but! Me & my partner took the day off of work because the tickets said last entry at 5pm for them only to start the show at 8:30pm absolute waste of time & money

Needed more information online.
We took camp chairs as it was a long day to stand up but was not directed where to put chairs and was moved twice, even though there was a lot of space.
No stamp or band for reentry, 10 hours is a long time to stay on the pier. We came from Crawley and only stayed for 3 hours.
Drinks were too expensive, 2 cans of beer & 1 can of cider £19.50, pump beer had run out at 3 in the afternoon??
Bands we saw were very good.

Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Hastings!

This was not about people have, just a massive way to scam you out of money. Water bottles taken with no way to refill water. Draft beer ran out within a couple of hours. A can of warm red stripe was £6.50. Only 3 bands played out of the 11 billed. I want my money back please Skiddle - this will be interesting!! All food removed from bags, 30 mins queueing, 40 mins waiting for it to be cooked. Absolute rip off!

Review of Save The Rave: Outdoor 90's Festival to Hastings

Very let down by the experience, mostly the drinks! 3 single sprits for £28!!!!
The music was also very dull and seems to be the same type all through the night.
We ended up leaving early

Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Hastings!

Nowhere to sit or relax, no beer, wine, c**e. Nothing on tap. Only selling Red Stripe cans at £6.50 each! Not allowed to re- enter venue. All water, drinks and food confiscated on entry. Long gaps between bands.

Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Hastings!

Many of the bands advertised did not perform. No event info in terms of who was on when was shared, no readmittance once entered but no ability to plan enabled due to no info provided. Vip area showed the back of the stage. Seemed like tickets were sold under false pretences. Will not use again.

Review of Hastings Pier

We love Hastings, born here, love the Pier. HOWEVER WHAT A RIPOFF AND TOTALLY USELESS COMPANY THAT PUT THIS EVENT ON!!!
DONT WASTE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY
Aggressive security, ran out of drinks at 2pm
Paid £9 for a warm can of red stripe as no other option
To long between bands, can’t leave and come back on?
NEVER AGAIN YOU RIP OFF MEECHA NTS

Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Hastings!

We paid for the VIP tickets and to be honest it was a complete waste of money. There was no separate entrance for VIP tickets so there was no queue jump which they advertised when selling the tickets. The VIP area was behind the stage so we never actually got to see any of the acts or hear them. A shame really as it may have been a great day/night. They also run out of beer by about 4pm and were charging £7.00 for a can, a small portion of chicken nuggets and chips cost £10.00. You weren't aloud out of the event as you would not have been able to get back in even with a wristband on. The vast majority of people in the VIP area were extremely disappointed and to be honest couldn't quite believe how the whole thing was set up. It was a complete disaster. It was that disappointing that we left before 5pm.

Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Hastings!

Absolute rip off!! They had run out of all draught larger or ale! They had the cheek to charge £6.50 for a 330ml can of warm budwiser! Once your in your in you can't come and go as you please, my daughter came on her period and we was not allowed to go the shops to get her supplies for her, so we had to leave. Never again will I be attending any event held by this company!! 🤬🤬🤬

Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Hastings!

Very poorly organised and very disappointed. Won't be going again.

Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Hastings!

We go to 2 -3 festivals a year and this is by far the worst we have ever attended. No wrist bands unless you had a VIP ticket so nobody was allowed to go out and come back in.
Beer on tap ran out before 4pm. You sold tickets so you knew how many were coming!!! Only option was 440ml cans at £7.....daylight robbbery!!! Several tributes were cancelled with no apology or explanation. No running order of artists so we didn't know who was playing when.
Dreadful food choices. VIP's were sat behind the stage so couldn't see anything or hear much at all.
Once we realised the main acts weren't playing at all we left which was about 5pm definitely had no intention of staying and paying 7 quid for a can of beer.
Certainly will not be going again. You got us all there on false pretences.......absolute shambles!!!
