Review of Hastings Reggae Festival 2024
Terrible Terrible, music was poor, muscian was poor, speakers was not loud enough, 2 hours long wait break between artists performing very poor music. Many people left by 6pm. Awful overpriced food and drinks. No ice for the drinks. Awful, awful never again

Review of Hastings Reggae Festival 2024
Very disorganised especially between the acts. No running order was conveyed so we had no idea who was up next until they were on stage. Crowd left singing 'why are we waiting' many times. Waiting 20 and 30 mins between each act. No MC. NO DJ. No screens so people from a distance could view the acts. Entry to venue was confusing. Left visitors wondering how to enter. No marshalls/stewards on the streets guiding visitors. Organisers need to fix up if this is to become a regular event.

Review of Hastings Reggae Festival 2024
The acts when they eventually came on were good but the atmosphere inbetween was non existent most acts were late on and cut short. Sadly I would not go next year due to this.

Review of Hastings Reggae Festival 2024
Great day..so glad we did VIP..was very chilled at the side but could go and watch the acts right at the front. Plenty of food stalls and bar in VIP was excellent ..rarely queues for the toilets ..great acts but a long wait in between them ..would still recommend

Review of Hastings Reggae Festival 2024
Very good day, music was amazing. Favourite artist of the day was General Levy, he bought the vibe right uppp and got the crowd jumping 🤩. The downfall was the waiting times between each set. Also a suggestion I could make is possibly do a deal on beer as it was quite expensive for one can. But the spirits were fairly priced for a festival. Food was top notch .. we ate from a few of the different stands and all of the food tasted amazing ☺️.

Review of Hastings Reggae Festival 2024
Just disappointing this year with the lack of flow, waiting nearly hour between acts. Left early cause we got bored only to find other people also complain about this year.

Review of Hastings Reggae Festival 2024
Very sad this year, normally a fantastic event, long gaps between performances, didn't know who was playing as they were running over an hour behind, 2/3 rds of the crowd left before 8 .. so disappointed

Review of Hastings Reggae Festival 2024
Great festival for music lovers everywhere. Fantastic acts. Technical issues meant acts ran late. Token system for alcohol very misleading as the ability to pay by card was available. Food and drink very overpriced . Bring a picnic & a chair. Definitely going to be coming ack next year.

Review of Hastings Reggae Festival 2024
we couldn't hear the artist singing above the music. It took too long between each act for everything to be sorted For the next artist. Even one of the artists had to complaint 😊
