Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Cornwall!
Up front information about entry was poor. No food or drink was allowed to be taken in! We ate our lunch and had a few beers before entering the arena as you weren't permitted to re-enter if you left the festival to go back to your car! We didn't buy any drinks in the festival area. At £8.00 per pint we weren't going to be ripped off! Music and facilities were good tho!

Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Cornwall!
Had fantastic day!! Only few niggles. Prices are way too high. £6 for a can of cider. Even if £4, would make a hefty profit on each can. Also ran out of all cider at 5.30pm which didn't go down well with our group. We paid for the VIP area which was nice because it had proper toilets, however although we could see the stage, the front of it was in the other part. Other than that a really lovely day. The acts were all great and got everyone singing and dancing. All staff and security were all helpful, friendly and FUN!! Will definitely be going again next year. And we will take our camping chairs :)

Review of Save The Rave: Outdoor 90's Festival to Cornwall!
Loved the music and the venue. The queues were way too long though and it took ages to get a drink in VIP. Also charging £10 for parking after £55 a ticket is a bit cheeky!

Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Cornwall!
Was pleasantly surprised after reading previous events reviews.
Only improvements would be to the VIP area. Fenced off so lots of people in this area went to standard area where they were able to access the standing area near to the stage

Review of Save The Rave: Outdoor 90's Festival to Cornwall!
Formal Complaint Regarding VIP Experience at Save The Rave Event, Cornwall
Dear Save The Rave Team,
I am writing to express my disappointment and frustration with the VIP experience at your recent event in Cornwall. My friends and I were excited to attend and expected a premium experience, given the additional cost of our VIP tickets. Unfortunately, the reality was far from what was advertised.
Firstly, the lack of seating in the VIP area was unacceptable. My friend ended up with a bruised backside due to the limited options for sitting down, which significantly affected her enjoyment of the event. A VIP experience should come with adequate seating, especially when the event runs for several hours.
Secondly, we were shocked to have our suncream confiscated upon entry. This led to one of my friends suffering from sunburn, something that could have easily been avoided if we had been allowed to protect ourselves from the sun. Given the outdoor nature of the event, we found this to be an unreasonable and unsafe policy.
Moreover, we were assured that VIP ticket holders would not have to queue. This was not the case. We spent a considerable amount of time waiting in line, which added to our frustration, especially as we had paid extra for what was supposed to be a hassle-free experience.
The situation with the toilets was also disappointing. There were not enough facilities, leading to a wait of at least 20 minutes each time. This is unacceptable for a VIP area, where convenience should be a priority.
The queue for drinks was even worse, with a wait of 50 minutes. At other festivals, we've enjoyed table service or at least no significant queues in VIP areas. The fact that we had to spend so much time just waiting for drinks significantly detracted from our enjoyment of the event.
Furthermore, the quality of the food was very poor, and there were no options available within the VIP area itself. This added to the inconvenience, as we had to leave the VIP section to find something to eat, only to be met with subpar choices.
Finally, the only view we had of the stage was through a wire fence. This was far from the "premium viewing area" that we were promised.
Given these issues, we feel that the VIP experience was severely lacking and not worth the additional money we spent. We request a full refund of our ticket costs as compensation for the disappointing and subpar experience we endured.
We look forward to your prompt response and hope that you take this feedback seriously to improve future events.
Sincerely,
Joanne Venus

Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Cornwall!
Great family atmosphere. Everyone appeared to enjoy the music, especially the ABBA tribute band - these were amazing. A little disappointed that no one could take food and drinks in, especially for families with little ones. Food and drinks at the venue were quite pricey for what they were. But a really lovely afternoon and evening

Heard the same songs quite a few times. The DJ's were poor other than Dave Pierce. Drink and food was expensive and the queues for drinks were at points 40mins+ Venue was good, facilities were good. Would I go again? No

Very good. Could do with a van serving hot coffee and drinks. Music varied. Information about who was playing and parking not clear. Music started at 12 we were still in the queue to get in.
