I feel like the people who actually enjoy their time here are people who take a lot of drugs but not the good kind like literal bagheads, when you go to a charity event you don’t expect to see a man causally strolling around with a samurai sword and getting it out in the men’s bathroom trying to intimidate people basically. The smoking area was a waterproof sheet attached to some poles with what looked like trampoline springs absolutely pointless it just got you even more cold and wet with a woman screaming at you to get out of the shelter and stand in the rain even though you basically are under the shelter anyway. It’s the worst place I’ve ever tried to get a taxi from especially in cold weather was waiting over an hour in the rain because there was no taxis accepting the journey and loads of taxis charging people stupid prices which we ended up paying as there was no appropriate shelter to wait under. Drinks were cheap most staff was lovely but if any trouble happened in that place there was no way that security was controlling the situation unless the guy with the samurai sword was with them there was a lot of men that looked like they could overpower the security I’ve actually never been a venue I’ve not felt safe and this is definitely one I didn’t and it’s strange because I’ve been here before and it was decent but after tonight I would never go back or advise anyone to go.

I thought this year's festival was nowhere near as good as last year's effort. The music wasn't the typical 90's Stu Allan style. I hardly heard any of the banging tunes that were played last year. Very disappointing. The atmosphere wasn't great either. Prices for drinks were average. The venue needed a soft furnished chill out area. The cold weather didn't help either. It has put me off going again.

Just went for the experience. Not really a raver. People were very friendly. Did enjoy it but not something I would do again.

Having sniffer dogs on the door is not the type of place I would bring myself to again. The 1st event was a far more relaxed atmosphere, I believe there are far more modern up to date venues that could cater for such an event. Bowlers has had its day... rough unkempt and like I said dogs on the door signifies a low in the dance scene.

last year's event was so much better this year It was alright.They were charging people 10 pound to park their car in the side street which is free to park there so it was just a scam to get money of people is shame that people do that.
