Beautiful venue, get a lovely sunset. Good food, it's never over crowded so the queues are never long. Been twice now, will definitely go there again next year.

Review of Superboxx Rochester Castle

Overall rating: 4.5 Verified review

The acts were great, played a variety of music and engaged the crowd. The atmosphere was really good and we had a lot of fun. It seemed well organised. There were plenty of toilets. There were lots of bar staff, never had to wait too long at the bar, however the prices were quite high. I liked the beer vending machines! There were lots of food stalls. It would have been good if there were stalls selling festival type clothes and accessories, oh and a pick n mix stall would have been good too! They would've been bonuses, but on the whole we had a brilliant time.

Worst ever. Ground was like a bog after weeks of rain, no matting, or prep done. No chairs allowed, very overcrowded. Queue for bag search and entry long, what were they searching for, obviously not drugs, apparently food n drink not allowed but unlimited amount of skunk was fine. This was the only gig I ever left early.

Great night except for the few drunk people that were pushing and causing issues in the crowd was concerning as we had young people in our group and they were frightened ruining our experience

My wife had her mints and body spray confiscated on entry but clearly drugs as the smell of w**d was the preferred odour for this venue. As the smell of w**d w**d was prominent throughout the venue and not my wife's impulse or fresh breath.Drinks were limited at £6.50 for a can of Budweiser only larger they had.. with the torrential rain ( no fault of the venue we decided to go to the pub to take cover to be told that despite we had wrist bands on we would not be able to return.. when I challenged this the person on the gate called for a 6 ft 6 yeti to intimidate me. ( I was quaking in my boots) NOT. We ordered two portions of loaded fries and 3 cans of pop and got stung for £26, could have had a 3 course meal and a pint in the high street for that. The VIP area was amazing, sarcastic bye the way £25 on top yet couldn't get anywhere near the stage and the toilets had to queue for so used the portaloos like everyone else. However did get a free can of Budweiser £25 well spent NOT on a good note UB40 was amazing

The festival was uplifting, but found the vendors very expensive and the issues with people being able to bring in chairs to sit on was difficult as it was difficult for those of us that have disabilities with standing for long periods of time.

Everything was good a bit on high price on drinks and the only problem I had was that my specific medication and food was taken away from me when scanning my tickets I also had problem getting my wrist band as I was they didn't have my disabled band ready instead I was sent all the way back down to the que to get one or staff to come up in the end I was made to take along route to get in took 35 mins to get to the other entrance that In the end the security from stage side sorted Everything for me then I had trouble finding my family which I found in about 20mins but still needs to be awareness of these things . Other than that it was good
