Bristol is always a 2 day event and as Agg said is a good one. It is (depending how the dates fall) the week after or two weeks after Portsmouth. Typically 60K people go and it is NOT a place to go to Buggy or Board as that usually happens only if you are demming. Plenty traders lots to see good couple of days out. No camping

Does that help. . .

Yeah Cheers Rasga I think Im gonna stick with wallop It sound much better.
No camping and mainly stunt and single liners has put me right off bristol.

Cheers, Adam

Bristol and MW are two different types of festival.

Wallop for buggy and board.
Bristol for single and two line.
OK.
I have been to, and enjoy both festivals.
since I have kites to suit either festival, I can enjoy all.
there is a bit of camping but not on the same scale as MW.
Its more of a public spectacle of kite flying than a meeting of buggy nuts and boarders.
there is, though a different atmosphere on the flying fields.
Loved MW for the buggying and love Bristol for just relaxing single liners.
Being older at 46 makes a differnce, but I take Tom (my son17) and he enjoys both aswell and looks forward to all.
I am hoping to get to Bristol again this year to meet up with lots of friends.

Bristol for single and two line.

and four line (decorators and other display teams)

I have to say Bristol don't I Fingers crossed because the past two years have had dodgy wind

You can camp but your not allowed to (i think the traders might) you will be bolloxed if they catch you
