Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival - Norwich!
Whoever was responsible for food catering made a huge error and created queues in excess of 1 hour for really poor selections of food. 3 concessions for an event that lasted all day and had a large crowd made the event a disappointment for many. Given the refusal to allow us to bring in our own food this was badly done.

Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival - Norwich!
3 food vans for alot of people over 10 hours!!! Everyone had to queue for 50mins for food at any point of the mud afternoon onwards. As we were not allowed to take any food in and were not allowed re-entry if we left the venue we had no option but to queue. The tickets were a good price and all the acts were very entertaining, such a shame the lack of catering took away from the overall experience.

Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival - Norwich!
Paid extra for VIP which was a total waste of money, no view of the stage & crammed into a tiny area. Portaloo's were cleaner than the VIP loo's! Only 3 food outlets, which meant we queued for 2 hours, missing a lot of the music, only to get to the front & most options had sold out! Would not return!

Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival - Norwich!
Venue location is good, but the actual fenced in area was very basic, definitely not festival vibes. Prices at the bar and food stalls about average for these kind of events. The food however was a big issue, not allowing people to bring in any food or drink, but only having 3 food trucks, an hour and a half in a queue for a thin pizza, beyond ridiculous.
There was not a schedule for the day to say what act was on when, sometimes it said who was next on the screen on the stage, very poor organisation.
We were in VIP with private bar but it served fewer options than the main bar which was right behind it, so we ended up going out of VIP to get drinks. We had expected plenty of seating in VIP, so didnt take our own, but there were only a handful of deck chairs, and the VIP area was just a section to the side surrounded by 6ft metal fencing. Only bonus of VIP was the toilets.
We are highly unlikely to book this event again.

Very busy and we got there 3 hours in so limited view but music was good and good atmosphere. Could have done with some more food wagons as long queues to get served.

Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival - Norwich!
From the start the music was too quiet and couldn't really be heard near the back of the area. The only bands that were reasonable were the ABBA and Oasis, the rest of them were dreadful very poor quality. Only 3 food outlets available so had to queue for 2 hours just to get chips. The bar ran out of cider by 7pm and the tea and coffee also ran out at a similar time. Lots of people left early. If you aren't going to allow picnics you need to provide adequate catering facilities and not charge the earth for the food. Better quality tributes also need to be sourced. We won't be going again.

Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival - Norwich!
I Had VIP and waited in the entrance que 5 times longer than those in the normal line.
The view from the VIP area was at best pathetic for 3/4 of those in there. The bar was much worse than the van in the arena where at least they did have pumps, £3 for lemonade and c**e from a bottle was shocking. Overall very disappointed, but the organisers will obviously be rubbing there hands together about all the easy money. If only you put some effort into the bars you would easily treble your earnings.

Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival - Norwich!
All in all a lovely afternoon. However, some of the tribute bands weren't great. The only one my group of friends thought were great were ABBA. 3000 people there and only 3 food vans - totally unacceptable as you couldn't take your own food in, and had to wait 2 hours for food. Everyone was moaning.

Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival - Norwich!
Bands ok but venue and organisation awful. No proper drinking water. It was in acwater butt. Not a lot of food. Very overpriced. No ice cream van. We were not allowed to bring any food or drink in. Not allowed to leave and come back. They had a funfair ride playing music when bands playing.

Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival - Norwich!
We were not allowed to take in any food or drink, not even water. When told last minute the parking arrangements were cancelled as well it was the final straw. Heard from people the that only 3 food vans were open for all those people so food & drink queues were horrendous. I decided not to go even though ticket was paid for. Others were leaving early to go out & get food. Certainly not family friendly as advertised.

Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival - Norwich!
Had VIP tickets but other cheaper tickets were admitted a long while before us. Only 3 food stalls entailed queuing over an hour to purchase food. The smell from the toilets was abysmal . Could not even see the acts on stage from VIP section, a cheaper ticket was the best option. Would not attend here again

Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival - Norwich!
The acts were very good. More of a sound alike than a look alike in many cases.
I purchased car parking well in advance, but received an email the day before the event informing me that the car parking had been cancelled.
We were not allowed to bring food into the venue and there were only 3 food outlets on site. We queued for 2.5 hours (NOT an exaggeration) to get a pizza. This meant that we missed two of the acts. The other options were burgers or noodles, and their queues were just as bad.
The bar prices were ridiculous. It was £3 for a very small plastic cup of c**e. You could buy a bottle of Jack Daniel's for £140 or Vodka for £160. I actually took a photo of the price list because it was so unbelievable.
