Tredegar Park Newport reviews by real event-goers

Review of Disco Tots

Nothing for tots to do apart from have a little dance in one tent

I know it was set up for a previous event and it felt like it with the shisha tent and lack of tot friendly things to do, no bouncy castles or inflatables as advertised

Review of Disco Tots

Carnt review the event because I didn’t go to it we were travelling over an hour away but had nowhere to park the communication was not very good concerning this

Review of Disco Tots

Fantastic day but food and drink were overpriced. Would definitely go again.

Review of Festival Of Comedy

The comedians were great and the staff were friendly and helpful.
It’s the third year of buying the Golden Circle VIP tickets and this year it didn’t feel as good value for money. VIP bar didn’t open until first act which was much later than previous years, VIP area not welcoming and people were only using the area to go to the toilets. Very basic bar with drinks on a table. Golden Circle seats were not as comfortable as the normal seats.
Communication on the day could be improved.
Buses very slow with only two coaches for everyone so very long waiting time.

Review of Disco Tots

Circus equipment only for kids, other rides weren't age suitable. Couldn't take food/drink in,food stalls were extortionately priced! Music/event not for kids.

Review of Disco Tots

It was good but not all activities advertised were on.. also the food was well over priced.. glad the weather was OK.. also rides over priced and only 1 suitable for young children

Review of Disco Tots

Prices were terrible but that was to be expected. My main issue was that it wasnt as child friendly as it was advertised. Excuse of wind which meant no inflatables or bouncey castle even though the rides were still in operation, no mascot parade, same songs being played over and over, artists either not on or on in the wrong order so missed.

Review of Disco Tots

This event was not centered around children at all. Nothing for the kids to do there apart from poxy stilt walking on 2 sand buckets... No bouncy castles or inflatables as advertised, no giant bubbles or anything that was meant to be there for the children. Food was way too expensive, rides not suitable for small children.... Also seen police there walking away with a bag load of drugs that were found there on site from previous music event. Good job a child didn't find them first... If I thought I'd be able to I would definitely insist on a refund. Certainly need to massively improve this event if they want to do it again but I won't be going as will probably just be let down again 😡😡😡 .........

Review of Festival Of Comedy

Temporary Parking at the venue needs to be sorted. The comedy wasn’t of a standard I’d have expected, but appreciate its a hard business. Fast Food vendors poor quality food and undervalued staff although prices over the top.. so they need to up their game. Stage and seating arrangement good sound excellent.

Review of Disco Tots

Childrens event took place in the middle of adult events and this was very clear! Very little thought for children. Not enough entertainment, rides were unsuitable. Circus skills was chaotic. Advice not to bring food and drink shocking and clearly not adhered to anyway. Missing artists. Overpriced vendors. Prices varied for same things to different people.

Review of Disco Tots

Thoroughly enjoyed the music, the venue was great and kept amazingly clean throughout the day. Although it yes been so rainy the ground underfoot wasn’t too muddy. Unfortunately despite being advertised as disco tots there were no amusements suitable for tots on the day. Bouncy castles, inflatables and circus acts were advertised but I certainly did see any. However I did query whether this was due to weather conditions. I also felt food and drinks were extortionate with one drinks venue also increasing prices as the day went on. Despite this we still really enjoyed they day.

Review of Disco Tots

I think the entry system could have been better, as an adult it’s fine but with impatient children I think there could have been less queuing times! It was a shame one of the acts didn’t show.. I’m sure this was out of your control as was the lack of activities for the children that were advertised! I think it’s a really good concept and the entry price was very good! I would definitely come again though!

Review of Disco Tots

Really disappointed. Felt like disco tots was an after thought to party in the park colour clash the day before.
No rides for children (tots). No cider left from very beginning and stated they had sold out. They sold out of hooch by 2pm. The only entertainment they had for children were the hoola hoops and stilts. Really disappointed. Family day it was advertised as yet there was nothing as a family you could do there! Felt like it was a day for the adults and children were the after thought.

Review of Disco Tots

It’s called disco tots but wasn’t for young children at all!! Nothing there for them!! We left after a hour!! Absolute waste of our time and money

Review of Festival Of Comedy

Great evening out. Only negative was the mosquitoes when it got dark! 🙈

Review of Festival Of Comedy

Reasonably priced entrance fee but hideously over priced bar with poor availability and very expensive food and poor quality.
Entry to the site was poor and took a long time. The queue was split in to multiple lines, some of which were moving much quicker than others so unfair waiting times based on which queue each person was allocated.
Comedy was excellent though, loved it!

Review of Festival Of Comedy

This is the second year that we've been. It's a good night out and we'll worth the price.
However the drinks and food were very overpriced and it turned out to be an expensive evening.

Review of Festival Of Comedy

I booked early bird tickets for £20 for the golden circle, bargain I thought...but when I got to the venue I was told I had to pay another £25 as I had to purchase a general ticket too to get the £20 ticket to upgrade to the golden circle. I didn't realise this and I don't think it was very clear at the time of booking. There were other people who this happened to. My tickets were on skiddle and at no point was I asked to pay the remaining balance before the show. I felt it was expensive and the show was only on for 2 hours with a band performing in between, who were good, would have been great if they played at the end. Bit disappointed , expensive and not long enough!

Review of Festival Of Comedy

Lovely festival feel, despite being a smaller venue. Great comedians and a good view/sound wherever you sat. Wide selection of food choices and plenty of toilets which stayed clean throughout. We were a bit worried about the mud as the weather hadn’t been good, but the organisers were well prepared and had put mats and sand down and our feet stayed dry.
