Liked: tNothing
Disliked: Gates not open until exactly 14.00 hours Traffic queued on the main road until They were told by Council to open the gates. Then we were shuffled into an empty field. until the road was cleared, Waited for 20 mins while new traffic was shown parking places this took 45 mins. What an unorganized festival.No body in control of campers or lots available. Well, the festival was not what I expected only 2 stunt cars/bikes. Most rides were extra money. That was a complete waste of time. toilets were overused and not suitable as no Ulsan or washing up facilities for campers available in our area, The noise from the band until 23'00 hrs was louder in my home than we have the TV on. Also, no security at night as shouting and bad language until 03.00 in the morning, also some kind sole had air horns which they liked to sound after midnight just to keep your attention. This was not as advertised a complete waste of time and very expensive as well. NOT RECOMMENDED.
