blondiex Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 I can't wait, looks amazing this year. I went last year with one of my mates but there are about 20 of us going this year. The word really seems to be spreading. Cant wait!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandster Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 I know there seems to be a big buzz about this year. I never went last year but I wished I had, everyone I talked to said it was ace. Its brilliant we've got something like this so close to us, about time. Great stuff!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali :) Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 First Post Not been to a festival in years (since titp got too neddy) but the Charlatans and the Levellers will do for me. Better round up some others. Will there be buses from Aberdeen? If not I'll have to stay in Peterhead or Cruden Bay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emzzzzz13 Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 Hi Sandster. Daily buses will be available to and from Aberdeen to the festival. Timetables will be up on the website when available... www.wizardfestival.com Or you could always camp!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spooner Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 Never been but going this year. I went to belladrum last year and cannot give it enough priase. Excellent festival Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali :) Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 Was looking at this and belladrum as my daughter(shes only 4) gets jealous when we go to T in the park now. Aw bless? Reading its a really family friendly festival and we live just outside aberdeen so its not too far away. Has anyone been with a young child? My gut instinct is thats she too little but any feedback would be appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emzzzzz13 Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 Children are really catered for at the festival, there is a designated area just for them. I certainly don't think she is too little... A good friend of mine has taken her little boy both years and he is only 4 now and he loved it. I would definately recommend you head up, its really safe and enjoyable for all the family. There is also a quiet camping area if you wanted to stay for the weekend!

BenWizard Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 Ben, will there be shuttle buses running from Aberdeen for this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spooner Posted July 12, 2009 Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 I dont know if anyone can compare but i was wondering just how big wizard is. What i enjoyed most about belladrum last year was that you could get to anywahere within 5-10 mins whether is be the car park, areana or campsite. Is Wizard on a similar scale? Also whats the thoughts on gazebos in the campsite? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenWizard Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 In case you missed the rolling window up to the right hand page... Eleven more DJs, bands and acoustic acts have been announced for Scotland's Wizard Festival happening on August bank holiday weekend. Wizard's new additions include BBC radio Scotland broadcaster Tom Morton, and Bruce & Jamie Watson. Bruce was one of the founding members of Big Country, and alongside his son Jamie, the pair will play guitar based Celtic tinged blues. Also confirmed today is Aberdeen's DJ Andy Duguid, rappers Shy & DRS, and SNAFU regular DJ Cheynie. Glasgow based indie four piece Hip Parade, metallers Virginmarys, 10 piece ska outfit Bombskare, Celtic rockers Sons o the Soil, Gerry Jablonski, and Counterfeit Cash complete the latest names added to this year's line-up.
