Really like the look of this. Great price....really good line-up. Bunch of us will come up from Brum (or down I suppose that should be)

Normally has a quality dance line-up aswell.

This year the location has moved as it used to be in Portsmouth Dockyard and felt a bit cramped at times, should have more space this year as its been relocated to the seafront.

Yeah....just speaking to a few people, we're coming!

Do you know of any local campsites within walking distance??

This looks decent! See tickets was tweet it also featured Moshi Monsters or something?

Sunday is the better line up but for the money both are great value!

You'll struggle with campsites- I think there is one along the beach (going to be 15-20 minutes walk) but that's pretty much it. Your best bet is probably a B&B.

Was a fantastic fest last year, should be even better in the new location.

The only campsite near would be http://www.southsealeisurepark.com/ although its about 30 minute walk right alongside the beach, so not a bad walk at all in the summer. there also a travelodge in the opposite direction, again along the beach.

Theres plenty to do there for kids, moshi monsters, ben and holly. If its the same as previous years there will be a main stage, dance stage, and acoustic stage.

The campsite is right next to a nudist beach aswell, will certainly wake you up in the morning!

Cheers for the info. Would imagine the hotels and B&B's will be charging a fair wack that weekend so nice to have the camping option just in case

They sort of staggered the stage times last year. Although there was a bit of overlap you could see both headline acts if you wanted to. Saw the whole of The Cribs then half of Maximo Park last year.

Another excellent line-up announcement. Incredible value!

No Seasick Steve/DLS vs SP clash either

Be warned though, this ticket is good value because food/drink inside isn't good value

[sisco]

will be easier to smuggle drink inside with the new venue, last one EVERYONE had to be searched due to the location being a naval site and only one limited entry point in.

Menswear, feck when did they come back?

My thoughts exactly when I saw that...apart from the 'e' was a 'u'. Be quite funny to see what they look like now...guessing the skinny jeans are a thing of the past for them....

...as they are for most of us who were around at that time

Can't understand how this hasn't sold out already? Gotta be the best value for money festival surely? Plus its a Bank Holiday weekend by the sea.

Peoples is weird

But it's not allowed to sell out before Monday because that's when I get paid.

Looking for a quick advice from the locals! Is the festival at the south bit or east bit?? Looking to book a hotel or B&B now tickets are sorted so trying to get a postcode for somewhere close to where the festival takes place to use to judge the distance...

Theres a pint in it for ya!
