Forums > Help! > PLAY Festival 2006....a venue?

Hello

I hope you're all eagerly awaiting news about PLAY 2006, well so are we! We're having troube finding a venue that meets our requirements, primarilly

a) Is cheap enough to keep ticket price down
b) Is in (or roughly in) the Midlands
c) Isn't just an empty field

Sounds simple you may say, but alas not so far. If anyone knows of any decent venues can you let us know here? Did you go to a little festival last Summer in a nice quiet tucked away place in the countryside somewhere perhaps? Did it have anything like running water etc?

If you can think of anywhere please post whatever details you have, or send a pm to me instead if you fancy

Thanks!

Will those capable of telekinesis please raise my hand?

Tom_Shill, the dates are the 22nd to the 26th of June, but at the moment we don't have a venue booked.

Have a look at the first post in this thread and let us know if you have any ideas!

There's too many home fires burning and not enough trees

Aim high and you'll know your limits, aim low and you'll never know how high you could have climbed.

Can we have more info on this venue?

Ah, sorry, I'm being silly

I'll talk to Dunc about it tonight

I would say that the dates are fixed unless we can't find a site on the dates we want.

Sorry FRD...



Awww nuts.

Damn schoolin'!

The existance of flamethrowers says that someone, somewhere, at sometime said "I need to set that thing on fire, but it's too far away."

FRD we'll come and kidnap you

Feed me Chocolate!!! Feed me NOW!

YEAH! School is no match for mighty PLAY POWER!



Always open to new ideas, don't want to change to dates unless absolutely forced to by something like location, posting what dates are best for individuals won't influence this either, sorry!



JtJ....just read your post. Can you PM me details please, thanks!

TAJ "boat mummy." VALURA "yes sweetie you went on a boat, was daddy there with you?" TAJ "no, but monkey on boat" VALURA "well then sweetie, Daddy WAS there with you"

That's be right Chicken,
I go to Limey for PLAY and they come here

.....Can't juggle balls but I sure as hell can juggle details....

hmm . . . thinking quite far ahead here, but hey, im excited

I've just realised that if PLAY was to be in Swindon on the weekend after Glasto weekend (first weekend of July), it would be at the same time as the Old Town Summer Festival, at which I work (performing/workshops).

it might not be suitable at all, but if people were up for it, it might be nice to involve some jugglers in the summer festival's parade or something . . .

Are we there yet??
Locational certitude, anyone??
I'm coming pretty much wherever it is, just be nice to know I'll try bring you some in me bag too. Hope it gets through customs OK.

andrealee, sorry, the dates are fixed to the 22nd to the 26th of June.

We hope to have some news about a venue soon, but nothing is 100% yet...so if anyone has any more ideas let Dunc or me know by PM or email to veune at playfestival dot co dot uk

Yeah as Sym says we're pretty much done, just waiting on final confirmations and such. We hav a Norfolk option but keeping it as a back burner for the mo just in case. Same for the Swindon one too that folks were great to find for us

All worries about the venue are now over.

Please see either HERE or preferably HERE for details

See you there!

Looks cool
Whats the word on the facilities and proximity to shops etc?

Could somebody stop the room please... I'd like to get off

Have a look at the venue page on the ford hall farm site. We will have access to showers and loos, there is a farm shop on the site selling the basics, we have moonbeams back again this year selling amazing food and if all that isn't good enough the town isn't that far away. You will have all you need on site though
