Review of Belladrum Bar Tokens
Had great time for our first festival at 70 years old camping with our family. However, the experience was enhanced by the glorious weather and might not have been so enjoyable if wet! Think there is room for improvement such as reducing rip off prices for food and drinks. The exiting arrangemets on Sunday could be greatly improved to avoid such delays.

Review of Belladrum Tartan Heart Festival 2019
way to busy this year and to many drunk teenagers with no parents to be seen. gates closed off to the main venue on saturday night as to many people. something needs to be done about the banking in the main arena as quite dangerous. tho saying all that still had a great time. please dont ruin our bella and make it non family friendly.

Review of Belladrum Tartan Heart Festival 2019
Brilliant family festival. Loads for kids and adults to enjoy. Only problem is getting out car park on the sunday. They have to create more exit. 2 hours to get out the field is not good.

Review of Belladrum Estate
This year was my family's (myself, wife and one year old daughter)first-and realistically last belladrum experience.
While we made the most of the weekend, and having spent nearly 600 quid, here are a few of the unsavoury moments we experienced.
Thursday-we had booked cleanfields camping expecting to be in a quiet and respectful environment. We were kept awake until 5.30 by drunk and drugged up neds who were fighting, screaming and kicking tents over. Some complete idiot almost crushed my daughter. In short the campsite was a disgrace. Nobody had wristbands checked and we were subjected to sights, smells and sounds that nobody at a family oriented festival should have to endure. One saving grace was on Friday morning a lovely steward named shona helped us move to quiet camping.
The sheer volume of people at some of the headline gigs bordered on downright dangerous. How nobody was killed in a crush is completely beyond me. There were TWO stewards trying to sort out this very frightening mess. Not impressed. You are extremely lucky you didn't have a mass tragedy on your hands.
Our experience has been completely soured by your apparent disregard for the safety and well being of families. Hoards of unsupervised drunk and drugged teenagers were running amok and nobody challenged them. I am utterly furious to think that I allowed my family to be put in this dangerous situation. It is simply not good enough. As for the car park on Sunday what an absolute joke.
It took us 4 hours to even get out. We saw one steward sitting smoking a cigarette and that was it.
We feel extremely hurt, let down and ripped off. This was our summer holiday this year and it has been ruined by poor management, disgraceful campsite conditions and hoards of drugged up violent teenagers.
We will most definitely never return, but I feel this needs to be brought to your attention. The thought of another family going through this sickens me.

Review of Belladrum Tartan Heart Festival 2019
Another great festival. 4th year for us and best yet.
Noticed the price hike in drinks. £5 for flat beer? Not great.
Good food, although not cheap is better than decent. I bring my money to spend, so not really complaining.
Also noticed a difference in the number of people at the main stage area. Really crowded-over crowded actually, getting to the concerning stage for some I could tell.
Music - fab. Weather - fab.
Location - fab. People (in general) - fab.
Trying to leave on Sunday about 11am? BRUTAL. Probably our fault for leaving at the busiest time I imagine.
The positives far outweigh the negatives and already planning our party tent for next year (year 5 for the slaughterhouse) .
Music highlights: churches, Johnny Marr, Colonel Mustard, Lewis. Capaldi (surprisingly for me). The Coral...and many others too.
Just love this place and the weather added to it all.
PLEASE PLEASE DONT MAKE IT ANY BIGGER BELLADRUM!! it’s at capacity now I believe.
Roll on Bella 2020!!!!
