Yet another great weekend at We Are…

Yet another great weekend at We Are FSTVL - great production, great location, great DJs and the music was Bang on. Went XSCLV this year, and was not disappointed. The attention to detail was amazing and everything was accounted for, food and drink choices as well outside of VIP/XCLSV.
The Covid checking queue was a bit of a pain but understandable in the current circumstances, maybe we could’ve uploaded something to bypass the queue ?
Getting out on both days to Dagenham East was well signposted and road closures helped with getting to the station.
Looking forward to next year to whether it goes back to Upminster on a larger scale or stays in Dagenham.
Maybe have an Upminster in May, and a smaller one day Dagenham event in Sept ?
The one downside was 1/2 members of it seemed ‘inexperienced’ security staff where a bit ‘hands on’ with people leaving which was unnecessary, but apart from that the whole event was well managed !

Wow! We Are FSTVL this year was the best ever. Fantastic line up of world class DJs, the organisation and logistics were faultless, fantastic location, entry and exit was so smooth, rearranging tickets was easy - the entire experience was incredible.

WeAre…⚡️⚡️

Had such a great experience at WeAre this year, they had great staff across the board to ensure the safety of everyone, queues were managed quickly and efficiently and they did a great job at the end of each night guiding everyone home. Would recommend the VIP upgrade, it was worth the money to have an area to sit back and relax with DJ’s, short queues for the bar and bathroom.
