Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Cornwall!
Good venue, worth the extra for close parking, queuing was not too bad, sounds and bangs were good, loved UB40 and Oaces for the music. Great Finnish with ABBA and Queen

Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Cornwall!
I purchased vip tickets for myself and 4 friends expecting to have better facilities as some of the group are older. Apart from flush toilets, there were zero benefits from paying considerably more money. The view of the stage was limited, the bar had no less queues and no separate food outlets.
The fact that I also had to pay £10 to park my car was insulting.
I shall not be attending one of your events again and will give my opinion to anybody who asks

It was a great day out all the above brilliant staff very helpful.The only downfall was the prices for drinks and food .It would be good if you could bring your own food as a picnic and drinks then charge a bit more for the tickets

We bought VIP tickets and priority parking. The priority parking was full and we had to park miles away. Security wanted to "sniff" our water bottle to make sure we weren't smuggling vodka or gin into the venue! As we made our way to the VIP area all we could see was a construction site temporary fence with some sort of hessian netting fixed to it. We watched to whole event looking through this barrier, surely a lower less intrusive fence/barrier would work better. Lots of VIP ticket holders went out of the VIP area to get a better view. Bit bonkers really - don't bother going VIP or getting priority parking. Too much focus on security - more security guards than spectators!
We went home early.

Great venue, drinks overpriced and did not accommodate me. Unable to have anything fizzy and no stall sold orange or apple juices to have with spirits. Good atmosphere but would like to see more there to keep people entertained. Music was ok but some acts did not sound good. We did have a good day though.

Music was brilliant.
Venue was well arranged. Bit random having fairground rides. Thought VIP section was off to the far side. Id have been disappointed if I paid for VIP.
Prices and the bar were an absolute joke. I arrived at 4pm, 60% of options sold out. By 5pm no cider left either. £6 for a can that came out of a not for resale multi pack, bought from a local retailer. £7 a single £12 a double. I paid £3 for half a lemonade and it was filled an inch from the top of the plastic container!!!
Atmosphere away from the bar was excellent.
For all the trouble they went to to ensure people didn't take any alcohol onto the site, they sure failed in making sure they had enough to cater for the crowd. Overall, disappointed.

Review of Outdoor Tribute Festival comes to Cornwall!
We bought VIP tickets to ensure we had the best experience. Apart from having proper toilets, the rest of the area was worse than the main area. We were in a small, caged off section, side on to the stage, viewing it theough a wire fence not from the front, there was no access to the dance area, the bar had run out of most drinks even at the start of the event, all of which were extortionate in price, food prices were extortionate, and could only be accessed by walking through the main area and apart from a couple of the bands, most were mediocre.

Well worth going ,a great atmosphere with live bands playing lots of our favourite tunes . my only gripe would be the VIP area , felt very penned in & watching the concerts through a fence ... needs to be sorted for next year !!

No thought for accessibility viewing. I've never been to a music festival where there has been no wheelchair viewing platform. As a wheelchair user on the ground level you struggle to see anything when people around you are stood. Lack of information provided in advance by the organiser - no details on parking, access or stage times. Artists that were advertised on the poster weren't there. Very poor communication. Additional parking charge was out of order, when there was no mention of this when booking early bird tickets months ago. VIP area was also behind fencing so stage view was very poor. Would not recommend
