My daughter attended and said it would be her first and last festival. Too dangerous. Not enough security to control the crowd surges, spiking with needles containing fentanyl and ketamine, security n... See more

I cant give 0 stars! I have had exactly the same experience with buying the deposit option. I purchased two tickets (£60 deposit each, £120 in total). My tickets were tier 3 VIP, £335 each. So my tota... See more

Ripped off by official ticket company for Boardmasters Festival

My son paid a deposit for a ticket to Boardmasters Festival using its ticketing supplier, See Tickets. He also bought cancellation insurance through See Tickets at the same time just in case he couldn’t make it. He paid the deposit earlier this year and he tried to get his refund in April. See Tickets will not refund his deposit. Instead, by automated email, they pointed him to the insurance policy’s T&Cs which states in the small print the circumstances in which they give a refund. It turns out this is not when you need to cancel but only when the cancellation is needed in certain circumstances, including death of the ticket holder! See Tickets is actively mis-selling insurance by giving people the illusion they will refund a deposit if you need to cancel. See Tickets can only be contacted by email, and it is impossible to have a conversation with anyone working there. Don’t buy this cancellation insurance, you won’t get your refund!

Excellent Personal Service. Really Impressed…

Really impressed with Board Masters/WiltonBradley service! Especially Rebecca Starr who, when I phoned Monday, expedited my order as urgent. Efficient, Polite, and a pleasure to speak to. Even had a phone call later from her colleague, Ben Hiles, to check I had received the email saying 'Dispatching'! Received today! Absolutely brilliant. The Roller Boots look fabulous. My great-granddaughter will be thrilled. 5* Service. THANK YOU

Shocking facilities, Good lineup

Pro's:
Great Line-up

Con's:
Toilets were a disgrace - Full up higher than the seat. Literally disgusting. Not cleaned anywhere near enough. Even the VIP toilets were disgusting, couldn't even flush and completely full.

Water - Taps kept turning off. This is a nightmare at a festival. Literally a few times each day of festival.

Car Parks - Boardmasters stance is that it was due to accidents there was an issue in the car parks. Utter lies. It took us 4 and a half hours to get out from when we had packed our car. Once out the roads were fine and we know others who were still stuck in the car park for another 3 hours!
Even so if they want to claim the accidents on roads caused it, it was utter chaos, no stewards were there to help the flow of traffic or explain at all
