Review of Custard Factory

Overall rating: 1

Couldn’t even find the venue. Spent 45 minutes walking around Birmingham in circles. Waste of my time, money and energy.

Review of Birmingham Vintage Kilo Sale

Overall rating: 3.5 Verified review

This was my first time I went to Kilo sale and I bought an early bird tick*t, it was defintel worth buying it. All the good garments were being pinched left right and centre leaving me baffled when I seen people essentially walking in late. You've got to have a quick, keen eye for this sort of pop up shop else you will miss out.

Not impressed with the selection of clothing though there was plenty to choose from. Lacked a cheerful atmosphere and venue was poor. Items value for money.

Review of Birmingham Vintage Kilo Sale

Overall rating: 3.5 Verified review

The vintage kilo sale was everything I expected, I have came previously but at the general time, I would recommend to come at the early bird entry if possible there is just much more option. I only spent 23 pounds and got 2 jack*ts and 2 shirts with it, I was really impressed and during the early bird time slot it wasn't too busy however the music wasn't the best and could definitely be improved, it took a while for the music to start and even then it wasn't consistently play. Overall I would recommend the event.

The only items that were worth buying weren't in the £15 per kilo offer, a lot of the clothes were very stained

Review of Beneculture Presents: Dollar Dim Sum Club #001

The music was good, but I just imagined the movie playing in one room and the music in another. Food was great and the people hosting were really friendly. Only ended up staying for an hour because of the limited seats and the room being crowded, nice vibe though.

Missed this one - when is the next one??

A rather enjoyable night!

Overall rating: 4.5

The night could have been better advertised, infact skiddle is the only place I saw anything about it! Regardless of that I had a really good night, The Petebox was incredible and I personally think he's a witch or something because a human should not be able to make noises like that with their mouth and throat! A really good night and the fact not too many people were there probably actually added to the good atmosphere and also induced an air of mystery that surrounded the event. It made me feel special and like a VIP!

Poor effort from the organisers!!!

Overall rating: 2

We got in the que having already bought our tickets at 11 and got in at 12.30!!! Once we got in the main dubstep room was closed with a line of Police not letting anyone in. We waited in line for a bit then the whole group of people waiting got split up by police who were far too aggressive. Sum fun was had in other rooms but overall the time spent waiting and not getting into the main room was a massive downer on the night.

What a way to see in 2010 in a que to get into the venue. Never Again!!

New years eve custard factory....Never Again !!!!!!

Overall rating: 1.5

we got in the que at 10.30 and was still in the que at 12.45,people were pushin in none stop!!!! when we did get to the entrance police were stopping people saying it was over crowded. once we went back to the hotel, we meet others who did get in but were pushed out by police as it was over crowded and people were gettin tramped. What a waste of time traveling all the way to birmingham from chester to spend new years even outside the custard factory and wasting money on a hotel.

Another great night at the custard factory, but...

Overall rating: 3.5

What a great way to celebrate New Year's Eve! In a group of about 10 of us, my friends and I had an awesome time. Great music and even more rooms/marquees were open than the last event we came to at TCF.

While we might have arrived a little late for the sake of a large event's queue, we didn't think 11pm was actually that late - due to clearly poor organisation of the queue, we didn't get into the venue for another two hours!! We had to celebrate the clock striking twelve from the queue outside, and once we finally got to the front of the queue the men organising tickets had no idea what was going on and as such just let 8 of us through without even checking our tickets, we might as well have not paid any money! We were quite annoyed with this.

Also, the main pool room was closed off from the moment we got (about 1am) in until the last hour or so of the event because over crowding had caused - according to the policemen barricading the entrance - four people to be trampled! Whether or not this was an unexpected breach of capacity or just poor security efforts, it meant that obviously hundreds/thousands of us couldn't see the big acts (Caspa, Scratch Perverts, etc) and were restricted to the marquees.

Either way, the night was a big one, we all still had an amazing time and I'm sure we'll come back again for New Year's Eve - hopefully a little better organised next time?

NYE Custard Factory...

Overall rating: 4

Waited in the que for about 40 mins as we arrived at 10.15, luckily we got in before 12. i dont think that the que was very well organised as alot of people were standing in the wrong que. Me for instance. My friends had bought there tickets of Ticket seller so I waited in the same que as them as i was not told different although I had asked. After waiting 10 mins in this que I get to the front and I am told I am in the wrong que and that I have to go stand int he long a**e que at the back... SO I pushed in because that is wrong its their own fault for not being organised with proper signage....
The venue was cool! Was annoyed that we could not get out of the custard factory and venture to rainbow, because there was an accident and the police were baracadin it! It was mad!! So we just went back in the music was dubstep and was really cool!

There was a que for the loo but it went quickly. Overal Badass night loved it and deffo will go again!! xxx

WORD OF ADVISE DO NOT WEAR HIGH HEELS FOR THIS KIND OF EVENT!!!!!!!!
