BALLIN' Maidstone Maidstone reviews by real event-goers

Review of Disney Party - Sunday Family Funday

The advertisement the Disney event I feel is misleading.
It states that there is no hot food available but that snacks & juice are available throughout. However it does not state that this is not included within the ticket price & that this will have to be paid for separately. I also find it bizarre that adult and child tickets cost the same?
There were only 4 characters in total for the whole event. 2 were present throughout and the other 2 did fleeting visits. Again I found this to be misleading and was under the impression there would be more.
This was a bit disappointing as for a “Disney” party there was not a lot of Disney at all!
There was music throughout however agai got a Disney party I believe I heard maybe 3 Disney songs throughout the whole two hours.
The staff overall were great, friendly and very interactive with the children there, they seemed to be having fun and enjoying the engagement with the “characters”.

I did find “Elsa” conduct a little inappropriate. When the bubble machine was on, children were naturally getting over excited and going into the steps. This appeared to cause “Elsa” to get over excited too as I clearly saw her grab more than one child by the tops of their arms to get them down. It is safe to say, had that been my child she grabbed I would have reported her for assault.
I understand there may have been rules etc and it is for the children’s safety that they are now allowed on the steps, however there are more appropriate ways to manage this and manhandling children is not the way to do it.

Overall, a pretty average event and not worth the near £60 I paid for it.

Review of ABBA The Musical Bottomless Brunch

Thought the Abba would at least be for the whole afternoon. Just 1 girl and 1 guy who came on randomly and sang a couple of songs each time with backing dancers. DJ in between was good but sound quality for the singers wasn't great and you couldn't really hear the words plainly. Other tables seemed to get more pizza than ours although c**ktails and prosecco was free flowing. Had a good time but was bit disappointed with the Abba part of the afternoon.

Review of Dreamboys Bottomless Brunch

I was disappointed by the whole event tbh , first we all got sat separately, although I appreciate my friend forgot to write on booking ,we had friends downstairs that booked after us but got better seating , the manager did arrange for a sep little seating area at the very back so we could sit together, we chose to do this and literally just saw the back of the dreamboys the whole time , had to keep going to bar to get drinks as they forgot we was there , I had 2 c**ktails and a diet c**e and 2 slices of pizza , hardly all you can eat and drink as the waiters mainly dished out downstairs as you could tell by the girls falling about drunk, never seen anything like it tbh , my friend said about her 40th there and maybe seeing dirty dancing /grease but for £40 to see 20 mins of actual dreamboys and only the behind , 2 slices of pizza and couple of drinks it's far to overpriced , shame as daughters hen was coming up as well .

Review of CBeebies Party - Sunday Family Funday

Expensive for what it was

Review of Grease vs Dirty Dancing Musical Bottomless Brunch

My grand-daughter is diabetic and was unable drink the drinks supplied due to the high sugar content, but was refused an alternative so she had to buy all her drinks despite paying the £39.50. I would not recommend this venue at all.

Review of Dreamboys Bottomless Brunch

I was disappointed with the show itself. 2 of the performers had an actual act, with some dance moves, but the others were not entertaining and seemed to have no idea about how to engage an audience. There needs to be a build up and an element of seduction...it's not just getting undressed and then running around shoving bits in girls' faces.

Security was rubbish and too many girls were allowed onto the dance floor during performances, so this meant I couldn't see the performer properly. This is very frustrating as I didn't pay to watch drunk girls. Get some firm security and make the rules tighter about who's allowed on the dance floor when. It seemed extremely disorganised to me and I would not recommend this show to anyone.
