Kamble Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 you can WIN one of 2 adult weekend passes to SHEFTIVAL by visiting our website http://www.junglelionska.co.uk and looking in the 'News' section - there is a LOT of excitement about this event, just the music lineup is fantastic, quite apart from all the other attractions, many of which are free - £12 is a total bargain, about half of what you'd pay to see just one band in say, the 02 or plug.

BarryRiley Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I hope this does well. It's nice to have such things be a part of your city whether you like the music or not. However, it seems to be poorly conceived and can't really decide what it wants to be. The marketing for it (in particular the topline) isn't strong enough and I think this may alienate some people who will be confused by the fact that it's a music festival with pop acts, reggae, bowling, tennis, the Olympics on a screen, real ale trails and a jerk chicken stall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
