Nah Then Festival Review

- I went to the Nah Then Music Festival at Calverton, near Nottingham, on Friday 26 July 2024.
Overall this was a really good festival, very friendly, great vibe, good selection of music. Although there were queues for the bar, these were still better than some festivals, and the bar had a good selection of drinks and was reasonably priced.
Dear Roger, with regard to your review and specifically your comments implying that the only downside to the Nah Then festival was the Black Market bar, I feel that I must retort. The bar can be a very important element of a festival and if you are going to include this in your review, then please ensure that you assess the most important factors. 1) Price, ours is officially the cheapest festival bar in the universe, cheaper than a lot of peoples local pub and £2 or £3 or even £4 a pint cheaper than some bigger and better known festivals. 2) Choice, ours is the widest choice you will ever find in a field, basically our entire pub selection in a field with not just the usual lager and cider, but 6 choices of real ales 4 ciders, Guinness, alcohol free beers and ciders, wines, spirits, soft drinks, malt whiskeys, you name it we sell it. 3) Quality, all our draft products are served through the same high spec dispense equipment and coolers as you will find in the finest public house. 4) Ambience, punters are very keen on friendly service, quirkiness of the decor, vibe etc, our vibe at the Black Market bar is legendary. 5) Service, despite your claims to the contrary, I have it on good authority, from Siobhan, our own queue time analyst, that the longest wait throughout the weekend was appx 4 minutes. The length of the queue, which accounted for 100% of your review, was actually due to all of the punters opting to queue in single file, taking longer for staff to get their attention, if they had spread out along the bar as they would in their local, it may have been what we know as two or three deep at the bar at the most. I have actually waited longer for a 3rd sneeze to arrive than most people did to get served. Having missed such a plethora of information I can only assume that you don't have all that much experience of actually visiting the bar yourself and as such you missed out on all of these lovely opportunities to widen the scope of your review. Had you done so I would confidently have expected a 5 for price, a 5 for choice, a 5 for presentation, a 5 for quality, a 5 for friendly bar staff and maybe a 4 for the queue, 1 for each minute of the wait.

Thanks for your comment Dave, I did visit the bar on several occasions.
I agree with you about the pricing and the choice, and yes I have been to festivals where the queues are a little worse. My comment was an observation and was the only thing I’d heard other people commenting on whilst I was at the festival.
