"It's the focus of our year - we've
camped on Site 1 for 25 years" "Great to be asked -
we like it as it is"
You
Speak and We Listen
Listening to you, the
Festival goer has always been very important to
us. After all, you are the people
that make the Festival what it is and without you there
is no Towersey. So when we considered
making some changes to Site 1 camping, we wanted to know
what you thought.
It was an overwhelming and
very welcome debate that we don’t often get with our
customers and it is something we want to
encourage in the future. You have also given us ideas
and suggestions that we hadn’t even thought
about.
As for the outcome of the
debate? Well, you clearly like it how
it is and that is how it will stay.
We felt that maybe we needed to make some changes
to accommodate some issues that had been raised but
when it comes to camp sites, most of you are happy
with the way they are and so they will stay just that
way. We will take on board some of the small
changes you suggest for Sites 2 and 3, especially better
provision for disabled people and those up want to stay
up late.
One of the most compelling
arguments we received and one that really grabbed us
provides the best reasons to come to Festivals like
Towersey.
"Our society is constantly
divided by age, background and belief. On the
campsite at Towersey you pitch up next to your new
neighbour and invariably make a new friend.
The old camp next to the young; music, food and
stories are shared and for the brief Festival period we
are thrown together into a happy and harmonious
mix. This mixed and new community is
what makes the experience so different from any other
holiday".
So there you have
it. Come and camp on whatever site
you please (see "camping and accommodation" on
the website), and be part the Towersey Village
Festival community for 4 days and 5 nights of Festival
magic. Please do stay in touch with
us, give us your thoughts and ideas and let us know what
works and what doesn’t and continue to make it your
Towersey Festival.
