Leicester Forest Rugby Club Leicester reviews by real event-goers

Review of This is how it feels in the park festival

Poorly organised event. Music was ok but not great.
The bars were horrendous we queued for a very long time everytime we went for a drink and that was at every bar.
The food was the same!
There was no fun fair as advertised,hardly any food stalls and the food and drink ran out very early on!
I won't go again.

Review of This is how it feels in the park festival

Overpriced and warm beer, 45minutes queing time and ran out of beer by 6pm not really acceptable.

Review of This is how it feels in the park festival

Not enough bars or food. Queues were huge so missed lots of the music waiting inside to get drinks and not allowed to bring drinks or food in for the children. They also ran out of most drinks.

Review of This is how it feels in the park festival

We queued for well over an hour to get a drink.
No parking on site.
Should allow people to take own picnic and own drinks. Would be much better.

Shocking!

Review of This is how it feels in the park festival

Good music but badly organised. Long queues, ran out of drinks at 7.30pm. No bins so rubbish everywhere. Spoiled the event

Review of This is how it feels in the park festival

There was issues with long queues for drinks. They should have either just served cans or had someone just constantly pouring draft lagers that could be passed over when ordered instead of taking order, then pouring drinks.
I briefly spoke with the organiser and he said it was the first year of running the event so was a learning experience which is fair enough.
Disappointed that they cancelled the headline act at the end because of the weather which at the time was perfectly fine (I suspect there was another reason).
Other than those issues I had a great time and i thought the music was of a very high quality.
Will go again.

The bar ran out of beer around 7pm venue was till 11pm, waiting time was over 30 minutes more bar staff needed

Set up was all wrong dance tent less than 100 yards from main stage so you was listening to both at the same time and the ques for the bar was ridiculous

Review of This is how it feels in the park festival

Bit of a mixed bag. Venue was great, music and atmosphere was brilliant but the organisation around bars was an absolute shambles. Kids without a clue serving with no sign of anybody that knew what they were doing, hour-long waits to get served meant that we completely missed a couple of acts and everyone trippling up just exacerbating the problem. Great event spoilt by incompetent hospitality.

Review of This is how it feels in the park festival

The bars were very badly run, queues huge and actually ran out of alcohol by 6pm. Food options not good either, they also ran out of food by 7pm. Should have had more options, standard burgers etc as well as well as what was there.
The rain came which nothing can be done about that, but the last band was not playing due to it being wet so event was cancelled early however it had stopped ten minutes later and could have continued. Just thought the organisation was not very good.

To long to que up. Ran out of beer after 4 hours. Ran out of food after 7pm. Couldn't take own food.

Review of This is how it feels in the park festival

good event but ran out of good beer early, there were not enough toilets or staff to serve alcohol so you need more staff and facilities next time

Review of This is how it feels in the park festival

No parking. No first aid. 40 minutes queue for bar. Ran out of lager. Food limited ran out of chips. Couldn’t hear bands as vip disco music too loud. Headliner band cancelled last minute. Organisers not responding. Would like a full refund .

Review of This is how it feels in the park festival

I had high hopes for this event but unfortunately it was very disappointing. From the moment we arrived the you could tell the organisation was amateurish. The bands were good quality but all other aspects were terrible. It took over an hour to get served at any of the bars - there was no where near enough staff to cope with demand. The food choices were limited and the fun fair was just a few bouncy castles. It’s a real shame as the concept is great but the event didn’t match up to expectations for the ticket price.

Great day that even the rain couldn’t spoil! Well organised and great acts! Can’t wait till the next one!

Review of This is how it feels in the park festival

The music performance was excellent but the set up of the event could do with some work. Started at 1pm and by 5pm they had ran out of larger, by around 7:30 all they had left was white wine. the queues were bad, missed acts due to queueing for both drink and food. Not much available for non drinkers either.
Could get better if they actually learn from these issues.
