Vantastival 2013

A few Craic'ers headed to Vantastival in May 2012, we had a fantastic time and came out on the Monday morning dissapointed we a had a year to go until the next one!

Vantastival is a local music festival but with a difference, Campervans & Motorhomes are made very welcome over the whole weekend and your ticket cost covers you for the festival and for parking your vehicle.

I think it was Bronagh who suggested we could perhaps ask and have our own Motorhomecraic area, I see this has having a great opportunity for Festival Lovers and for those who have never been to a music festival, you have two options, go down and watch the bands and the other entertainment or sit with other Motorhomecraic friends and enjoy the weekend.

I have been in contact with the organisers of Vantastival and I am very pleased to announce that Motorhomecraic will have it's own area at the festival.

Further to this, Vantastival have offered us a discount, normal ticket price is €89 but Motorhomecraic members can buy a discounted ticket at €60 per person!!! this must be paid by Febuary 2013 and must be paid with a group booking. Of course if you don't want to pay by Febuary you can still buy tickets afterwards and join us, but they will be €89.

Vantastival, Bellurgan Park

So who is up for it? (only reply if you are)

P.S. if you were there last year and loved it, please give them a vote eu.festivalawards.com/vote

Yes Ally we will go to that for definite. I will book time off for It. We went to a bluegrass festival in Omagh last year stayed for 4 days, brilliant crack.
That sounds like a good thing to look forward to.

Good stuff :up: there is going to be a load of us, quite a few confirmed already!

I will post details in a few days about paying before Febuary etc, as I have to do it in a block booking so will need to collect the money of everyone.

Folks to avail of the Motorhomecraic discount, you MUST get me €60 per person before Febuary 2013.

You can do this at one of the MotorhomeCraic meets, send me a cheque (PM for details) or paypal it(pm for details), if paypal'ing and you are in NI, make sure you have the exchange right please and do not forget there are costs involved which you will also need to take into account, I think it is 3% charge but if you send it as a GIFT it is either much less or free. I will check that out.

Folks, if you can, book your tickets with the Xmas discount, it would save a lot of logistics getting the money to myself and then me passing it on.

Same price at €60 and you will still be able to join us in the MHC section.

Just booked our tickets for vantastival.

I've just booked in for a weekend of sin
Five star gypsies we will all pile in
Can't wait for the craic the music and jokes
The stomping, the singing, the eating the bokes!

Fill up your fridges with beers and wine
Pork chops and burgers and hope the sun shines
Plenty of gas, charcoal and ice
A small wad of Euros will probably suffice

I just made that up after 3 large Bacardis

John :bash:

Yes. It's a very relaxed Festival, just leave yourself enough room for your awning etc when you are parking. We will have our own area so should be no problems helping each other with what room each MH needs.
