Boomtown Vibes: The 10 Stages Where you Might Find Us at Chapter 11

Boomtown Chapter 11- No Time Like the Present

2019 is turning out to be pretty special for us. We’ve got so many festivals to blog about, we don’t know where to begin. This year is also our first time attending the magnificent audio and visual feast that is Boomtown Fair. We’re not sure why exactly it’s taken us so long to get involved in this absolute monster of an event.  After all Boomtowns outrageously themed sectors and stages are the stuff, that most festival heads’ dreams are made of.  What ever the reason, here we are and Chapter 11 will be our first experience of this immersive city.  Check out our previous Boomtown Vibes post, where we have listed 5 reasons why 2019 is the time to hit the Radical City!

If you’ve been following us for a while, you will know that one of our favourite past times is Festivaling.  Is that even a word? If not we’re claiming it.  Going to Festivals as a family is our way of spending precious time with each other! It’s also a way to experience a festival through Emerson’s eyes. His impression when he hears music ,and all the bright colours!  Or the way he chases a group of running children into the woods gives us pure joy.

Boomtown Chapter 11 – A Radical City. It’s Time

It’s no big secret that me and Keeley are a bit “festival obsessed.  We’ve spent the best part of 17 years trying to satisfy our hunger for these huge outdoor musical playgrounds.  No matter how many we attend, we are never truly satisfied, there’s always a new experience to be had in a venue we’ve never visited. That’s why we spend most of our days dreaming about what our next big festival is going to be. Boomtown we’re looking at you. read more

Camp Bestival Vibes: What goes down in 12 Hours at CB

Hotel Camp Bestival ..

On Friday the 27th July we headed down to Dorset for Camp Bestival.  Bestival has been on our long list of “MUST DO” festivals.  We figured that Camp Bestival would be a good starting point, being the UK’s most well known family festival.   Although its been in our diary for a while we only booked tickets 2 weeks before.  We decided that we would head down on the Friday and stay in a nearby hotel rather than camp.  The Springfield Country Hotel was booked for 2 nights, which seemed to be a hit with other Camp Bestival goers. We even mingled with some roadies and bands over the corn flakes at breakfast. read more
