i've enjoyed this fantastic festival with my children, their partners and children. we come on thursday and go home on monday. we have the most entertainment, fun and frivolity together each year that keeps us bonded until christmas comes. we all love it xcx

User

Was asked to bring my science show last year for a day. Loved it and back this year for all three days. About to go out and do my last show. Sad to leave. We are having the best time.

User

My first visit to the Festival yesterday and thought it was fantastic, especially Boy on a Dolphin, Nell Brydon and The Christians. Loads of choice to eat and drink and really friendly people, hope to stay for the whole weekend next year !!

User

Loved it great place to be free and for your children to grow

User

Love this festival. It's always one of the highlights of our year. Friendly, Fab music, Great food, Good beer and Posh toilets what more could you want!

User

It was amazing!

We performed on the Thursday night and again on the main stage on Sunday! The atmosphere, sunshine and people were incredible. The backstage a crew were a delight to work with :)

User

I love this festival and was delighted to be asked to play a set in the big top. Sadly, the sound was atrocious and it really spoilt the experience for us and those who came to see us. New crew next year please Rob!

User

How refreshing to be able to have a damn good chat to the organisers! Mike - you sound cool! Looking forward to playing Sat 20th June!

User

Had loads of fun last year. Really excited to see Funke and Two tone baby again in 2016. Demon Barbers were fab. What a fantastic line up.. cant wait.

User

Had a top weekend, many thanks to Mike and all of The AFOB team. You are all fantastic and are part and parcel of me having a great time. Great entertainment as always and great organisation. I cannot recommend this festival enough, see you all again next year

User

Another blinder, thanks guys. Bookworm Abroad had a brilliant weekend's trade and a spot-on view of the main stage just as I begged and pleaded for :) totally awesome music, great company and thanks to everyone who added to my takings as well. See you all next year for another laid back and thoroughly enjoyable festival (shame about the weather)

User

Absolutely fantastic weekend, a great starter festival for my son, a safe and friendly space where he could run free with newly made friends

User

Absolutely a fantastic family event. been going for 4 years definitely be going again .one definitely not to be missed .easy access from the A50 also directly opposite the train station. Nice posh loos excellent camping facilities

User

We have been to the Acoustic festival every year. Beginning with Nantwich though the cold wind and rain of Catton Hall, to lovely sunny days of Uttoxeter. We have brought family for a 80th birthday and friends to enjoy. its a really friendly lovely festival. But sadly this year its too late, its pushed further into summer when we have other things to do. Sorry we won't be there,sounds a really good line up. Hope you all have a good one XXX

User

This is a really nice festival, an easy and friendly place to be. This year was our second visit and both times some of the best music has been unexpected small bands. It would be better if we weren't stung for an extra fiver on arrival and the sound checks on the main stage are irritating for sessions in the beer tent. But the thing that we really found unacceptable was that the toilets were closed so early on the day we were packing up to leave. We will probably come again next year and will recommend the festival to friends, but please sort out the loos on the last morning!

User

Loved the festival.. Great atmosphere.. Only downside was stewards at the disabled stand loudly talking during songs and therefore having to concentrate hard to hear the performers... OK inbetween songs but unwanted distraction during songs...other than that fab weekend.. Would come again xx

User

Love it. Has become the start of my summer now. As a performer the chaotic "organisation" is a tad frustrating but we always get to dance, entertain the crowds and have an all round fab time.

User

The Acoustic Festival of Britain speak in a rude manner to the customers to which I may remind you pay to keep the Acoustic festival going, The 2015 weekend was a sham and the way few of your crew members behaved was rude and extremely disrespectful. there nothing on the grounds of where we set up to camp to say this area was reserved crew and staff, and in previous years we have always parked on this area, also the lady who approached us last on this matter of parking came across quite terrifying and made me feel quite on edge and the fact is this lady didn't give us any feedback from her talk with rob either, besides that huge praise and thanks to the others who were nice to me and my baby boy that weekend.
