    Great weekend of food, music and cars. Good selection of bands to watch and a surprising variety of music. Downsides = toilets for ladies (not enough of them and locations aren't great), bars (poor selection of beers and they are placed some distance from each other).

    Carfest was unquestionably great this year! Blood, sweat and tears went into making it the best year has been so far! I should know, I was part of the crew that helped but lt the main stage. From the fair ground, to the food & music. Walking around all the cars. The retro section. The bar etc. All came together brilliantly to make one great event! Plenty enough well taken care of porter loos with additional hand washing facilities. The food and drink was expensive at £3 for a cold can of anything fizzy. Almost £10 for a burger. But that's becoming the norm at events. Not to mention beautiful weather. With Chris Evans popping up here and there as well. Great day out!
