Review of The Big Family Day Out

Overall rating: 5 Verified review

Fantastic day out!
So much going on

Would be better to have a more detailed schedule for the workshops going on etc
And maybe more kids music to dance too

Could we’ll have missed it but that’s where better schedule would be great ?

Thanks guys, amazingly organised

I felt really disappointed with this event. I attended with my three children 0 5 and 8 my mum and my partner.

Upon arrival we followed the crowd rather than signs had there of been no one else we wouldn’t have known where to enter. Once into the park the itinerary and map were not clear to understand and read.

The main stage area was filthy and stunk of stale beer and sick from the previous nights as did the bar area.

The events/activities you needed to que for we’re not clearly advertised and there were no que markers resulting in people unknowingly pushing in.

Overall it was a terrible day and we won’t be attending again, which is a huge shame!

What a fantastic location, plenty to do for all ages. Drinks for the children were overpriced I thought at £2 for a tiny bottle of fruitshoot but otherwise a great day out.

Fantastic event & as a local it's great to have this on our doorstep. Artists getting better each year, great food, great atmosphere.

To improve, maybe make Friday/Saturday over 18. A lot of young kids in some bad states & clearly not with an adult. Also maybe a bus service to and from HP back to Morecambe/Heysham area, as well as Uni.

The location was amazing, but there were issues behind the bar that meant long queues.

Foul smell, but overall good day. Would of been nice to have a bit more music and dancing on the mainstage.

Not sure the companies delivering some of the entertainment were geared up for the amount of people, circus tent was good but boxes of stuff to play with was getting a lil spa**e even at 1pm maybe more equipment next year -

Queues were very long for face painting etc maybe more people doing it.

Had a lovely day. Plenty to do.. would of liked to see more local singers, did notice a couple of empty baggies even one half full on the way in. Could of been fatal if a child had got hold of it, and it smelt around main stage, maybe do family day first then the festival. Overall had a great day tho!

Was good but not as much to do as in previous years. There was face painting and bubbles and dukes was good but huge queues for some things (waited 90mins for facepainting). my 7 year old gave it 5/10 as wasn't lots to do.

Would highly recommend putting the map and line-up of what’s going on, when and where online so people can access prior to getting there so they can better plan their day. We didn’t realise some things/activities where there until near the end of the day. I did try finding this online prior to going but couldn’t find anything.

I thought this was a waste of money for my 4 year old. She wasn’t really interested in the stage stuff so the only activities suitable for her was the “bubble lady”, park swings and food. Activities were really busy and she didn’t want to wait. Food was expensive and queues for everything were long. Good idea in principle but need more activities for younger kids.

Fantastic event, we throughly enjoyed it. Shame about the awful putrid smell coming from all over the park.
