Hi all. We have our tickets booked for this event in August but have never been before. Have any of you attended? What's the situation with parking, changing facilities, drinks, clothing choices?
All advice appreciated.

There's a massive carpark across the road.
There's lockers and changing areas.
Drinks were done with tokens last year, so you bought some tokens for the evening. Saved having to carry cash, could put everything in a locker.
Clothing, wear whatever you feel confident in. I changed outfit from day to night last year. |

"Where is it actually held as having been there and looked on Google Maps, I can’t picture where they fit stages, marquees etc!"
Their descriptive powers always "Big themselves up!" It's actually a small corner site sandwiched between the river bank, North Bridge, and the 4 way street junction. Of that site, is the main building plus a small car park which can host about a dozen cars if everyone parks sensibly. It's NOT a huge site! |

The car park isn't available on the day. The marquee and stage fits in the car park area. There's plenty of room. Was food, bar, portaloos, stage, seating. There's a massive car park across the road.
Essentially, it works and is great fun! |

Ok, having been and seen the description I just couldn’t think how that would all fit in the car park! But if they make it work then all good 
Hope it goes well, we’ll hopefully make it one year! |

Thanks for all help so far. Appreciated.
Can you buy drinks tokens etc via contactless or do we need cash?
Yes, I am pedantic, but want the day to be the best possible. X |

We haven't been since pre-covid so it will be a messy one! 
Can't wait to see old friends and definitely make new ones
