Review of Woodshrop'24 Festival
The stage and sound system need upgrading. Some of the sound issues were terrible. There needs to be more covered areas to help with bad weather but we've loved the last two years.

Review of Woodshrop'24 Festival
Great venue. I've been for different festivals. Vendors prices can be quite expensive which is the same at all the festivals. Plenty of entertainment every day! Well be back against next year. 🙌🏻

Review of Woodshrop'24 Festival
This was the 2nd year of this event and our 2nd visit. Such a shame that the sound system let the event down. The bands and artists suffered because they were competing with equipment that didn't work consistently and as a result, we had artists that we couldn't hear or had their sets cut short because of equipment failure. If the event is hoping to continue, it needs an equipment upgrade in order to do justice to the bands. The event is right on our doorstep and is perfect for a festival weekend, but if bands feel their reputation is being tarnished then they won't come back and word will get around about bad organisation and they will struggle to get other acts. Please please please, invest in better equipment for next year!
The event also needs to ensure the toilet facilities are all functioning and empty the bins more regularly. People were asked when entering to make sure they put their rubbish in the bins, but on day 3 the bins were full and overflowing. On the first day, 3 of the ladies toilets were out of use and by the start of day 2, another was out of order.
I'm aware my review sounds very negative, but this could be a festival to be so proud of. Overall, the weekend had a great atmosphere and the bands were brilliant. Imagine what it could have been if the tweaks were sorted out.

Review of Woodshrop'24 Festival
Well organised, a short walk into beautiful Shrewsbury, very chilled atmosphere and decent acts. I particularly loved the vibe at the magic tea pot. We're planning to return next year.

Review of Woodshrop'24 Festival
You let the groups down with so many sound issues which also meant we lost out on many songs - a headliner which did 30 mins!! Infrastructure very poor - toilets disgusting and far too few showers. Rubbish just piled up everywhere. Felt like the they couldn't cope with the increased ticket sales - just out for the money.
