....just been looking at website to this show.... went to the first one 2 years ago and it was cool and a nice chilled alternative to RTTS. Ive been looking for a day ticket this year as thats all i can do...but they dont do day tickets...and I am shocked at the cost for the whole weekend!!!!

buy your weekend tickets online before the end of april - £35 pp
buy them after that online - £45 pp
buy on the gate - £60 pp!!!!!!!!! :shock: :shock: :shock:

and camping costs extra on top of that!!!!

wtf?!?!?
 
To be honest dood, you wont find any available on the gate, they sold out last year. This show gets better and better. This year its Goldie Lookin Chain aswell! we have a club pitch and uber looking forward to it.

Its now basically a music VW event, top music costs unforunately 8) Well worth it tho, for my fav show of the year ;)
 
Isnt it a bit ironic that its become a music event with high prices after it was set up to provide a chilled alternative to the RTTS 'rip off'? :?

Its a fab location and was really chilled the first year, and it was sunny 8) Not sure of plans for that weekend yet ....
 
it is ironic, but it is an alternative to the pile of **** that is RTTS i.e. decent music and a relaxed atmosphere. As for high prices £35 for 4 days of camping and music, sounds like a bargain to me ;)

Yeah, pre booking is your friend :)

Ive missed all the prebook tickets for Camperjam now which makes it a dear show, my bad, but its not always convenient to book way in advance for shows like these ... Im rambling now :D

Lets hope the sun shines 8)
 
My fingers and toes are crossed for nice weather 8)
 
Best show of the year IMHO went last year and it was even better than the first, booked our tickets before 1st March 25 quid! bargain for 4 days and no extra camping charge for clubs plus if you get more than 15 in your club you get a free loo... trying to think of a BOGOF joke buts I'm tired lol
 
we got our free loo aswell! just must make sure i dont park up next to it ;)
 
your right, it is one of the best and will be my 3rd time this year. Its the festival atmosphere that makes it that bit special,
 
I can honestly say that it was one of my best shows ever! Now that was purely on the company i was with i believe and the music we went to see 8) Had such a good laugh and the clean club loo we had was amazing!. The food available was of a very high standard and good music throught the weekend. :mrgreen:

My only gripes were all based around one thing really. The club camping was a complete cock up, the pitches were far to small and we had to ask others if they didnt mind a van being parked in front of theirs all weekend. Luckily people were cool and all was okay. But 2 members were not allowed in on friday even the they had paid for club camping and had to spend the night in the carpark. Not good atall.

Im sure if the club camping was sorted then it would have been great and people would have been able to get their vws out for the show and shine which was made up of brand new T4s and 5s :roll: only about 8 splits and a handful of bays were in it Sunday :shock: :roll:

Overall a quality show for me but if I had been one of the ones not let it then i would not have been happy atall. ;)
 
We loved it to fella but understand all you say about club camping being tight this year which had a knock on for the S&S.

Notice it got some slagging on VZi but what dosent.

£25 per ticket, nice food, better cider and great music......did i mention the company, weather (mainly good) and the cider.
 
the t4/5 thing is getting out of hand, dont get me wrong they have there place(i own a t4 caravelle myself) and i think its pretty cool, they just dont belong at these shows if you know what i mean? I will go again next year its a great show.
