I love Wickham Festival. The atmosphere is great as well as the bands. Will be there next year. Well done organisers.

Brilliant time had, well done! I would only ask for more water points in tent camping, it was a long walk! Also, toilets in the arena were pretty good, but perhaps a few in another spot? The ones outside the gate were closed on day 2 so must have been well used!

Last year there was seating outside the cider and ale tent. Definitely more seating for next year please.

We really enjoyed this year's festival and in comparison with others we think it's the best so far. Extending the arena down to the point of the step free access would be a good idea but it would also be good to have a map of the whole site including campsites available a few days before the event. Some of the signs for quiet camping, dropping off got hidden by cars, tents and some were knocked flat before the end of Wednesday.

2019 was our fifth Wickham Festival and we could see that improvements have been made each year. No festival can get everything right and please everybody all the time but Wickham hit the mark for us, more so than others we have been to. There are some good suggestions for further improvements which no doubt will be considered but let’s not forget that their are restrictions placed by the landscape, council regulations and health and safety. Also let’s not forget the enormous amount of work put in by the organisers and the volunteers that make this a festival that a lot of people come back to each year. 👍

We were on the campervan field and possibly one of the furthest away from the main site, with children and lots of walking back and forth BUT at £30 camping for the whole weekend and a clean/ tidy/ quiet site I’d happily camp there again! No complaints here and plenty of room for the kids unofficial wickham festival sports day 😁☀️👍🏻

Haven't all these moaning minnies heard of torches? You know its going to be dark when you walk back. Can't see why it's always the organisers fault . You provided lights and a very safe crossing point for us. Thank you Wickham for wonderful festival, already booked for next year.

This was our first Wickham and we loved it, we’ll definitely be back next year. Our main problem was being spoilt for choice between acts on the main two stages, we didn’t even get to the smaller stages. The random bus trip to the site, with entertaining drivers was a plus, and the walk back through the woods was fine after a couple of ciders. Could the festival site be stretched a bit into the disabled car park field that was mostly empty? A bit more separation between the tents would help with the sound crossing over between the two.

Can't wait to come next year for my first time. It looked fabulous and the lineups were awesome this year.

All in all a great Festival. Well done to everyone involved. One of the best festival line ups in recent years. We were lucky it seems we only had a short walk to the arena and didn’t have to negotiate ‘the steps’. One thing that would give it a bit more if a festival atmosphere would be some big flags next time.

Thank you for a great festival. My first at Wickham. I would have loved a quiet area to go to when feeling the need!. It was all quite busy on the main thoroughfares.

Re: site options. Great having the parking back over the road but close by. If possible, keeping features like Folk Orc on a flatter area would be good - we had some fun keeping ourselves and our music stands upright! 😁

I thought it was great - didn’t take that long to get a cab from McCarthy’s or to get to our car further down the road.. 30 minutes tops. Maybe a few hay bales around the site to rest weary legs and to sit down and have something to eat. Well done Wickham Festival x

Looking forward to being there next year after a bit of a break

Thanks for a great time! Yes the bus service seemed a bit random at times but that was all part of the relaxed atmosphere and the drivers were great fun

Already counting the days to get back here! Best festival ever! Fact! 🥳🙌

Good luck!

This was our first wickham festival and it was fantastic,. Constructive criticism would be... In the mixed camping field you needed more than one fresh water point...... The dirty water waste containers needed to be clearly labelled as people were putting toilet waste in with grey water waste etc. There was even a lady washing her dishes on top of these containers as she didn't realise that's what they were! Lol...... There was slight confusion as to where you collected your wrist bands, so signs needed there and lastly, the walk through the woods, not a problem, but wow, you could really make it look pretty at night. Different coloured lights or something. Anyway, well done to the organisers for putting on a great line up and generally what was an easy going great festival. Hope to be back next year. 😁❤️

We enjoyed the comedy tent late at night but it was over-subscribed to a point where it seemed dangerous with all those folk packed in. Maybe put that in one of the bigger tents next year? Great festival though - already booked our early-birds!

Panactical were just fantastic !! A local youth steel pan band from Eastleigh literally made my day when they played the dance stage on Saturday at 12 o’clock, you have to book them again, just brilliant and drew in an audience. Bigger stage for them next year please 🌞 I love wickham.

Definitely more lighting towers

The caravan camping field was really good, I might take my bike next year.

Need more water taps in the caravan field. 1 when we arrived on Wednesday, a further one was added later.

Have tried to call this pages number and email lost property which didn’t work as have lost a vehicle key at some point over the festival. Could someone help please, thank you.

Its strange to see the field empty😕roll on 2020😁

...it will hope to go again next year can't wait to see the line up.

We’ve booked for 2020!

We absolutely loved it this year and the grassroots camping was wonderful in our 1975 VW camper van. Can’t wait for 2020 festival. We’d like to offer up the phenomenal Carlos Nunez band for discussion as just returned from an incredible Festival Interceltique Lorient the year of Galicia where Carlos Nunez stole the show and the hearts of the people in the most spectacular way before heading to the Guinness Irish Festival in Switzerland the following day following in the Chieftains footsteps. So for 2020 I propose The Chieftains and Carlos Nunez for a headline spot.

Question. The calls to return to the stubble field for motorhomes etc. Surely this field is a nightmare in bad weather. Appreciate the some see this as part of the "festival experience " but from my view the grass field was excellent.

All booked for next year . Please keep the grass site. So much nicer to sit out on with children, also not so rutty to drive over . We all loved the wooded area to walk home at in the dark.

Already booked and looking forward to the line up!

Afraid I don’t agree with those who want to return to the stubble field! I loved the field with the longer walk. Really lovely walk through the woods and a shuttle bus for those who didn’t fancy it. Not so closely packed in and flatter areas. Loved it! Same again next year please!

No it won't! Time passes quickly from the moment Alastair steps onto the main stage for the first time until we say our sad goodbyes to the amazing friends we have made at Wickham over the years, on the Sunday night........Then it's 361 days of waiting!!!!

Looks fantastic, thanks xx

For those who came in 2017 with all the rain. We got towed in by a tractor, you can see by the tide line how deep the mud was. A fresh cut stubble field and water does not mix well . Over a foot of mud. Wickham Festival organisers did above and beyond getting everone in and there was some serious JCB machinery making new roads. . Never want to be on stubble again .

Booked and already looking forward to it

Booked already Get some amazing acts please. And make it bigger & better than ever ⭐🌈💞🎪🎶

Excited about it x 🎉🎊

How to better this year.....? 🤔 It will be a challenge! 😉 xx

Just got our email confirming our early bird booking for next year. Woohoo ☺

Thanks to Rebecca Taylor my ticket's already in the bag for next year 👍❤️

Must admit, I cant get my head around the number of people begging for the stubble field camping again. Having had 2 punctured airbeds, uncomfortable ground yo walk ir sleep on, twisted ankles, and scratched legs and a lot of mud traipsed in the times we were in there, why would anyone want that again? Or does the location make up for all that? Personally we found the tented camping perfect from a location point of view. 10 minutes walk. Just the lack of lightning, trying to find your way in the dark and no signs & lack of facilities were a problem. But have fed back so should be better next year, hopefully:-)

It’s gonna take forever lol mind we were lucky with the weather

More Stanley Jordan please!

Just been to Jack up the summer on IOW not as good as you!

There’s a brilliant ukulele band called Strumdiddlyumptious from the Portsmouth area who would be brilliant for the festival. They regularly play at the Victorious festival

See you all next year.

Already booked! Liz Ellcome Sarah Billingham

Got to agree with Angela Andrew. The new field is not worth the long, long walk. Can we go back to the stubble please ?

When will we know which artists are playing. I cannot wait 😂😂😂
