Review of Look-A-Like Festival: Outdoor Tribute Festival! - Nottingham

Had a email the day before the event informing me you couldn’t bring food , there’s was no way in finding out any information before this. I queued for the food for 1 hour 20 minutes missing one of the bands, it’s either miss a band or go hungry. £5 for chips outrageous. How can they say you cannot bring food yet they cannot keep up with demand. Unless your near the stage you couldn’t hear the music. To top it off the band I came here for fleetwood Mac tribute didn’t show up.

The music was excellent but everything else was not. Firstly the field chosen is not on or near any public transport route. Parking was atrocious, how can it be family friendly if you have to park a few miles away and walk along a main road without a footpath to get there because there is no parking spaces left.
Secondly 1 hr 10 mins to queue for food is massively under catered for.
Thirdly, it was the smallest triangle of field crammed with so many people so much so standing room only was a struggle.
The music was very good but that's the only thing. I would not go again and would definitely not recommend any families to go.

Great fun, due to the music acts, all fab, very glad we bought vip tickets, well worth it for space, no bar queue and nice toilets.
Not enough choice of food, all junk food, would have been nice to have a salad/wrap/curry or similar on offer.
Car parking a disaster! They did manage to squeeze us in after being turned away once, I would have been furious if we had had to park mikes away and walk there, a lot more cars could have been fitted in, you can’t turn people away without another option! Very helpful security staff.
Thanks

Food was a complete shambles and totally disorganised. Had to wait nearly 2 hours and missed music sets. Totally ruined the experience Bar ran out of wine at 4.30.

Didn’t go as an email received two days before the event informed us that there wasn’t guaranteed parking on site and no food or drink could be taken in to the site. From reports from those that did go we definitely made the right choice.

Really very poor food choices especially for vegetarians. Queued for 1.5 hours for food and missed a whole band. Limited food choice. Queued over half an hour for toilet. Told we shouldn't bring food or drink and this is not in keeping with other festivals and spoils the atmosphere although would have been fine if there was a good choice of food. We would have liked to bring snacks. Also saw several people with there own picnics which is really annoying.

Not sure the site felt too well organised with no central walk way and people putting picnic blankets and chairs everywhere whit you had to walk through. Rectangular site with fencing against the cornfield. Not sure how safe it would be if there was an incident and people needed to get out.

Not impressed with the pre event info and lack of line up info / timings even on the day there was no programme. Not impressed with musicians playing to a recorded backing track without bands. We attend a lot of festivals and this was not up there really!

I think this festival was misleading in their advertising from the start. No list of acts and acts pulled out in the day of the event. No adequate parking and toilets for the numbers at the event. Food stalls people were queuing up over an hour at a time so missing the music. Disabled access was non existent apart from 3 slightly bigger port-a-loos . Once in the venue you wasn’t allowed to leave and come back. Last entry was at 4pm.

The acts were great, think the venue was a bit small and there were no clear pathways, felt you were falling over people trying to get back to your seat. Bar prices reasonable ( but they did run out of wine a few hours in) , however the food outlets and queues were horrendous. My daughter queued for an hour, then later I queued for 30 mins to be told they were running out of food. We had children with us and adults who didn't eat all day, the result being we actually left early and missed the act we wanted to see as we were all so hungry. Something has to change or be allowed to bring in picnic food.

One food seller with only burgers and chips available that took an hour to que for. Two lagers as the only beer available. Nearly an hour between acts! Appalling.

Seriously not enough parking or transport ie park and ride. Food extortionate soft drink ridiculously priced £3 for a small c**e. Was told there were street food stalls but being limited to burger chips and hot dog is not what I class as street food...and waited 1 hour 45 minutes in a queue for the food which wasn't even hot when we got it...

We had a great day, got there early enough to get parked, only 15 mins before gates opened. We were prepared to purchase food and drink and due to the reasonable price of tickets did not mind this. My only comment would be that more food stalls were needed as the queues were ridiculous and we missed music because of it!! Queued for over an hour so we didn’t starve, feeding teenagers!! Went home very hungry as was doing this twice and is a long day! Music was great and we had fun! We will definitely attend next year just please sort the food situation out and make coffee more available for us drivers!! I had to keeping going back as the water wasn’t ready and also the queue for the one coffee place was also extremely long! Good job my husband wasn’t an Abba fan!!

We got tickets half price so ok , would not have wanted to pay full. Venue was narrow field and far too many people. Music not really load enough if at back of field.
Toilets ok for first few hours then usual not pleasant.
Not allowed to bring food in but only had 3 huts for food, one for chips, one for hot dogs and the other for burgers and had to queue seperately for each. People were wAiting at least 1 hour in each. Burgers were poor quality and £8! Bar was not busy, cans at £4 fir lager or dark fruit for the cider. Wine and spirits £5.
Music ok, we saw Elton John, rubbish! Then noasis who were good and had to wait another hour for ABBA, we left after than as was cold.
Overall overpriced, poor venue, limited parking - needed more and better food available. Would not go again

Overall had a good day music was good but had to wait over half an hour in a que for food. The burger was £8.00 and was disgusting. The worst burger I have ever had. Also didnt provide enough toilets had to wait more than 10minutes for a pee on multiple occasions.

We queued for 1 and half hours for food. Everyone complaining as no one could bring their own food in and it wasn’t cheap either .. then £10 for a 1.5 litre bottle of C**e .. what .. seriously.. a 2 litre is only £2 in Sainsburys..complete rip off..disgusting.
Music … well we couldn’t hear half the songs.
We was there at 12pm .. no one on stage till nearly 2pm .. too long gap in between artists ..
I thought that we would have got programme or paper saying what time the artists we’re going to be on …..nothing.. very disappointing
