Let us know your thoughts and suggestions about this year and next.

This year we had a successful Vantastival with great weather and a bigger than ever crowd. We introduced some new elements to the festival, some of which worked and some of which didn't. Our long-term goal is to keep Vantastival a boutique event with a crowd of no more than 5,000. We approached this limit for the first time in 2017, almost selling out this year, and the increased numbers on site present us with a new set of challenges. We have already received a lot of feedback about the event, which is very valued by us, and we'd like to hear from as many Vantastivallers as possible in advance of 2018 planning to ensure we can do our best to maintain the standards our patrons have come to expect. We appreciate your candour in your responses to the survey questions. Any criticism and/or recommendations will all be given serious consideration. Thanks for taking the time to complete this survey and for your continued support.

Question Title

* 13. Are there any other activities/attractions you would like to see at Vantastival 2018?

Question Title

* 14. We know that many of our regular Vantastivallers like to party late into the night after the main music stages have closed, while others prefer to get a good night's sleep. Following feedback received from this year's event, we plan to accommodate both in 2018. Which of these would be your preferred late night option?

Question Title

* 15. Would you like to come to Vantastival in future years?

Question Title

* 16. Many of you will remember the year of the big rain at Vantastival in 2015, following which it was necessary to consolidate the festival by reducing it to a 2 day event. We always planned to return to a 3 day festival at some point and we have already received many requests to do so. Taking into consideration the increased cost of a ticket for a 3 day camping weekend (approximately €30-40 extra), which of the following would be your preference for 2018?
