Review of Lanty Slee x Octoberfest Present a NYE Hootenanny!

Review of Octoberfest

To see a great festival start so locally to our home is just fantastic...& it did NOT disappoint. Everything about Langdale Octoberfest was FANTASTIC.
great venue, great music & great atmosphere.
❤️‍?"?

Need more info re the schedule of bands etc on the website as not everyone has time to scroll through Facebook or Instagram. There are a few Facebook posts of people asking what was on at what time as it wasn't clear in advance.

Also - beer tokens / glasses:
1 token should be for half a pint not a full pint.  So £20.00 for 8 tokens as opposed to 4.
This allows people to sample different beers by taking half pint samples over a broader range of beers.
The beer glasses should be included in the entrance fee - £5.00 for a glass was a rip off. 
There was no beer menu explaining the different styles / tastes of the beers  - again this could be given at the entrance with the glass included in the entrance fee.
You could get businesses to sponsor the beer menu pages etc etc.
More info on the website regarding prices would have been better - I wont be paying £5.00 for a plastic glass after also paying to enter etc etc.........
£9.95 for a G&T in the bar was a rip off.
2 tokens for a c**ktail was also a rip off - although you did get a free glass!
Food was good and pricing acceptable.
I'm not sure but I don't think there was any info on the website until closer to the event regarding dogs. I couldn't see anything when I booked my tick*ts but closer to the event it stated not suitable for dogs. 
We didn't bring our dog but heard that people with dogs were asked to leave at a certain time.  19.30 I think??
Again this should be better explained on the website if you are going to do this. 
It would have left a sour taste had we brought our dog.
From my experience - overpriced, lack of info, will think twice before going back.

Music was good though.

Saturday night music was disappointing, didn't like political songs when I was out for fun!!! Toilet provision was very poor - 2 x portaloo at other side of the muddy field! And only 2 staff working at the Lanty Slees bar, big queues, there should have been more staff on! Tick*ts were expensive for what was on offer. Good atmosphere though.

Oktoberfest was a fantastic experience. Very well organised, with some amazing bands and singers which catered for all audiences, combined with a huge selection of Lake District ales from local breweries. I hope it will be in the diary for next year.

There was a good selection of music for all tastes with a friendly and welcoming vibe. 
The location was stunning - the Langdale valley is beautiful, the autumnal colours adding to it. Lanty Slee is a great place though perhaps didn't expect the numbers as the toilets gave up at times. 
The pricing of the event was great value for the weekend.

We were there on Friday and Saturday....quite a different vibe on each night but both were fun and friendly.  The bar was very impressive- we didn't manage to sample every one of the beers but we found some new favourites. Staff all very helpful. 
We enjoyed most of the acts we saw - highlights for me Riot Jazz, Undercover Hippy, Thieving Magpies, Matt Carlin and Meetwood Flac. 
Downside was the loos. Didn't mind the mud! All part of the festy fun. Please do it again next year....we want to bring our friends!
