With Festival
fever just around the corner… all you festival goers are currently debating
which festival(s) you should attend this summer.
The Questions
you may be continuously asking yourself and your friends may run along the
lines of… “Which festival will have the
best entertainment?” or “Which festival is best value for money?”
Imagine a quiet,
country park with picturesque views including a long eight mile stretch of
pristine beaches. A perfect location for a festival some would say? Well a certain festival can provide this
fantastic location!
Beach Break
Live is the only festival in the U.K which is dedicated to students. Yes you
did hear my correctly – a student only festival!
Situated on
the coast of West Wales, Beach Break since its birth six years ago has
established itself well within the competitive festival market, improving year
upon year ranging from the amount of established acts performing at the
festival to the actual location of the festival.
For the
bargain price of £109, students get the ultimate festival experience – four
days and four nights of the finest fun, music and vibe unlike any other
festival going. Prior to Beach Break, I had not been to any sort of festival
and would recommend it to anyone who wants the ultimate student experience.
Beach Break
is the ultimate party amongst 20,000 students – all there for the same reason –
to have fun and make friends from other Universities. My experience of Beach
Break was incredible due to the fact my best friend’s twenty first birthday was
right bang in the middle of the festival where everyone has to dress up in
animal costumes which made it even more special!

| Me & Jamie Roberts :) |
One of my top
highlights aside the music may excite Welsh Rugby fans out there! I had the
chance to meet Cardiff Blues and Welsh international star Jamie Roberts who is currently
studying Medicine part time at Cardiff University.
Jamie is such a down to
earth guy who took time out of watching performances to meet and greet the
various fans throughout the weekend.

Two acts that
significantly stood out for me from the festival are Beardyman and Example.
These two acts both know how to get a crowd going!
Check out the video of Example below:

Very nice review of BB, it really makes me want to go again this year. Completely agree that Example and Beardyman stood out but for me, We are Scientists were the highlight.
ReplyDeleteI really like this blog post. You make good use of multimedia to support your text and the use of photos and videos makes this review very enjoyable to read. I have never been to Beach Break but after reading this review I feel like I have missed out!
