I'd love to do it...unfortunately I've seen the 'aftermaths' of such festivals and they're disgusting

Hi Spin Cycle, I understand your comments but I wonder if we could at least discuss? The concept of the festival would be very enviro-friendly to include clearing rubbish. I appreciate that lots of boots on the ground would create some unavoidable damage. Any way, if you're willing to talk I'm at [email protected]

Location, area, size ,services etc etc required possibly , be helpful also along with and security, planning, Police and bonds payable details maybe to give potential site owners scale of things to deal with?

These are all fair points to make however we are in the early stages of planning and at this point can only ask for expressions of interest. It's difficult to estimate attendance however we do want significant space as we envisage zones for stalls including Spirit, Enviro and Community and anticipate quite a large take up for them. We would be happy with quite a small attendance in the first year and plan to keep prices low. It would be run on a not-for-profit basis intended to raise spirits in these difficult times and encourage the growth of positive attitudes. We are considering perhaps making it alcohol free. We would prefer to work with owners who, roughly speaking, like the general idea.

Would an outdoor arena venue be of interest. Holds approx 5k.

stick with the alcohol free part, a lot of people would turn their nose up but it'll cut out trouble by 99% i expect and attract families

Heard a lot of people try to set these up, aiming for woodstock 1969 but probably
end up with the 1999 version

A family friend rented a field to some lads in 1989. His name was Stuart Macintosh.
To some he was a hero. To others he was the antichrist!
What was supposed to be a small music festival, albeit not really legal, turned into a mahoosive event hitting the national headlines and requiring a huge Police presence.
I’d want £30k up-front as a deposit! Then I would start negotiations.
