Clapham Common London reviews by real event-goers

Review of Oktoberfest on the Common - Evening Session - Saturday 12th Oct

Unbelievable rip-off! Very expensive tick*t for nothing, no German songs all just an average pop world like DJ mix.

Very expensive for what is. The microphone had an echo so you just couldn't hear anything. £15 a stein is a bit much on top of £35 to sit in a tent with inaudible music

Review of Oktoberfest on the Common - Evening Session - Saturday 12th Oct

The whole venue looked to be tailored to the VIPs with barriers and no decent sound quality making it's way to the back of the tent. Prices were high, but that is to be expected with an event like this. Very few food options and long queues at the bar. The organisers definitely could have done better for the cost of the tick*t

The tent has poor sound quality so couldn't hear the hosts. The tent was very dark and poorly lit. Very limited games and food options. 3 food stalls, with 2 selling the exact same thing. A coffee stall would be nice. Security was very tough, couldn't bring in an umbrella when it was raining. Tick*ts where very expensive for essentially a bench in a tent, should offer customers more value for their tick*t.

Review of Clapham Common

I feel robbed. I cannot understand where is the £40 ticket money has gone into; venue is s**t and not decorated, no choice of food, funfair ridiculous, non VIP space felt like an afterthought, sound painful to listen. The marketing on the insta page seems fake. Thanks got for a few people dressing up and playing the game but that’s not thanks to the organisers. Never ever again.

I don't think it was worth 30plus quid, the venue was very underwhelming.
Drinks were more expensive than usual and took forever to get. Music was good but it was so excessively loud we couldn't talk at all or order a drink. Unless you're in the front tables you can't see anything.

Honestly if I could request my money back I would. If there was an Oktoberfest version of the Fyre Festival, this is it.

The brass band is not a brass band. The beer hall is dark and basically a rundown nightclub. The drinks app didn't work so you had to go to the bar to join a special queue for all there orders they accepted via the app but could not fulfill.

The pricing of beers was decent and the staff wonderful.

The organisers have clearly NEVER been to Oktoberfest. Save your money and never attend this heaps of rubbish.

Really fun event with plenty to do in there, the dodgems were great. Perfect for a big group of friends. The bands were great at getting the crowd going.

Review of Oktoberfest on the Common - Day Session - Saturday 12th Oct

Awful - poor choice of beers, music too loud, full of very drunk people standing on tables and doing drugs in full view of security, overpriced - nothing like the advert. Massive con
