Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival - Norwich!
Feel very sorry for the acts performing at this festival who are let down by being associated with such a poorly organised event.
No food or drink allowed to be brought in. Only 3 food vendors leading to horrendous queues, no sweet options and only 1 vendor selling instant hot drinks.
Had to leave early to get food off site as I am diabetic and need to eat regularly. I will not be booking again.
I also paid for parking which was not available and I am still awaiting the promised refund.

Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival - Norwich!
Lovely atmosphere, food was priced as expected but nice food , could have done with something sweet though, even bags of popcorn or candyfloss ..
we were vip , the metal fence inbtween was too high , felt like you were caged in , toilets were great. The tickets said seperate area, toilets, bar and more but not sure what the more was and nowhere could we find that out so that was disappointing.

Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival - Norwich!
We went as a family including young children. It was a pain not being able to take in picnics/snacks when there were only 3 food vendors and food Qs were in excess of 1.5h! At a guess there was 3000+ people.
The kids got hungry and frustrated.
The music was great and all acts were brilliant sadly There was 30/45min between each act where music was played but it was not really how we expected things to go.
Plenty of loos. And they were kept nice and clean on the whole with plenty of loo paper.
On arrived staff removed a perfume from my sisters purse and a body spray from my nephews man bag and threw them away. These were not allowed on site.
I had to call Skiddle to confirm some questions which I could not find on line, re picnics, and children tickets. Under 5 being FREE!
We did enjoy the event! The music was great. The atmosphere was enjoyable. Earlham park was a good spot and easy to get too. But the lack of food vendors and wait between acts let it down a little!
Hopefully some constructive help for next time!!

Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival - Norwich!
Disappointing day. Couldn't find a timetable of who was on and the times. Not allowed to bring a bottle of water in or any food. Only had 3 food trucks at venue and the queues and prices were ridiculous. Took over 90 minutes to get a pizza. When we went close to the stage kept getting smells from the toilets coming over. Not a great experience

Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival - Norwich!
Excellent event. Fab tributes. Not enough food stands for the amount of people. Relentless Queues and a bit OTT price wise. But a great day. Recommend for sure.

Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival - Norwich!
The acts performed well and the supporting teams all did a great job.
However,The venue did not have parking. The event did not allow food - not even snacks. There were only 3 food offers, noodles, burger, pizza with a one and half hour queue and wait. The food was not that good. 10 hours without substance is near inhuman. The water tasted strange. The Wurlitzer ride played its music so loud it clashed with the artists. It should be played quieter when the artists are performing.
If the issues of food, snacks, and ride music could be sorted and improved - plus some parking the event would be awesome.

Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival - Norwich!
The fact that there were only 3 food stalls meaning over an hour queue for food was ridiculous! Then it was poor quality and not even hot! This is bad when there was no option to take our own. The drink prices were very high considering we were not even able to take soft drinks in with us. 2 of the acts advertised were not even on yet nothing was said and there should be a set list of times before the event so people can plan as most can't afford to buy drinks all day at those prices! Half an hour between each act was too long. Luckily the acts themselves made up for the other failings!

Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival - Norwich!
Complete rip off. VIP with no tables and chairs sited at an angle you couldn't see the stage looked like a pig pen. Toilets ran out of paper and water to wash hands. Bar was a joke. Insufficient food vendors causing long queues. Whoever planned this event and booked it .. shame on you. No advertised line up or any event announcements. Too long between acts and staff really apathetic. Water butt water was disgusting and allowing plastic bottles of water not eco friendly. Bins were overflowing with cans, just the whole thing was shoddy and shameful. Norwich city council... do better with the planning and booking of your events. It really sucked and I'm being polite

Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival - Norwich!
We purchased VIP tickets and was very disappointed with the area, toilets not very clean, and no room to put out our seats, so sat in general area. The queues for food ridiculous, at least 1 and half hours to get food. We left early.

Review of Earlham Park
Complete waste of money. VIP was a just a pig pen with a rubbish bar and toilets that ran out of loo roll and water to wash your hands. Couldn’t see any acts from there and nothing on the site to say you could take chairs in, not that you should have had to for a vip area.
We left to get a just eat delivery brought to us at the sportspark as the queues for the limited food vendors were at least an hour long. No advertised line up, no dj announcement for the acts, too long in between acts. There was nothing good about this festival, complete rip off. Shame on you for a poor product and shame on the council for booking you
Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival - Norwich!
Much better than uptown festivals. However not happy we weren't allowed to bring own food and drink but instead were expected to pay extortionate prices from the food stalls. £3 for a small coffee/bottled water/can of drink. People were paying upwards of £10 for a burger and chips. Ridiculous prices.

Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival - Norwich!
The rule of not allowing food and drink to be taken to the event is diabolical. If that's the case then you need to supply more than 3 food vans. It took just short of 3 hours to queue up for food!

Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival - Norwich!
No enough food options, vastly overpriced and long long queues to get poor quality cold food. Only three food trucks, no vegetarian.
£3 for a small plastic cup of flat soft drink.
Nothing for children, not even an ice cream van.
Left early - very disappointing.
