Review of Festival of Comedy 2024

2nd time going to festival of comedy. The venue changed from the one we booked. Coronation Park was less central and more difficult to get to. 
The main issue we had this time was the VIP area. It was full with staff who took about 2/3 of the chairs in the area and used them all night! Also only one person on the bar for most of the evening. So much for the extra ticket price...we ended up sitting on the grass by the stage as no seats were available.

Had a great time at the Festival in Comedy and would recommend. My only advice would be not to bother paying for the parking. The directions, both by email and using the three word location finder, took us, and many other people, to a completely different place where the parking was completely free. It was approximately a 20 minute walk. Signage was not great. I'll know to save myself £16 if it's at the same venue next year. 
The Festival in itself was great though. The queues for food, sadly, were not.

Original venue was Tredegar Park which is why I purchase tickets, New venue was a bit out of the way, after parking the car both my wife & I had a good 30 minutes walk to and from the venue with on comedy festival signage given directions to venue  ?

Really enjoyed the COMEDY, some top acts and all very funny.  Nice to have teh music before and in the break too, so glad it didn't rain.

Excellent evening of comedy.  I'll be booking again next year.

The comedians were excellent and so was the singer during the breaks.  The only negative was there was a lot of confusion with the car park, park and ride. We got dropped off at a T junction the what 3 words non Newport taxi drop off. From there there was no signs to say in what direction to walk! We had a choice of 3 roads to walk down. There was a huge group of people in the same position. One piece of advice,  PLEASE have toilets for people whilst waiting to get in, so people have driven a distance to get  there.

Good night out, comedians were funny. Food and drinks were very expensive.

Loved the outdoor venue (glad the weather was ok!) I paid extra for the VIP area which I think was a little overpriced for the minimal extras and would just buy standard tickets next time but overall a good night out.

Great acts. Venue was fine but I missed it being in Tradegar Park. Having said that, it was so well organised. Really good value for money for the tickets. However, the drinks and the food was too expensive to enjoy too much.
