Love
Blackpool,
stayed
in
lovely
b&b
for
1
night
while
we
attended
pier
jam
(Allendale
in
Albert
road
)
30/07/22.
However
pier
jam
not
so
much
No
disabled
toilets
with
running
water
(I
had
emailed
in
advance
to
ask
if
there
were
any
disabled
toilets,
and
was
told
yes
there
would
be)
No
running
water
No
hand
sanitizer
Toilets
FULL
of
empty
drug
containers
No
real
searches
Sniffer
dogs
were
FAKE
They
profiled
people
I
need
to
carry
anti
sickness
meds
with
me,
the
security
cleared
them
without
even
looking
in
the
box
or
actually
at
the
tablets
I
could
of
carried
all
sorts
in
!
Drinks
&
food
ques
weren’t
too
bad
to
be
fair,
couple
be
better,
considering
they
are
aware
of
how
many
will
be
attending,
surely
the
more
staff
you
put
on
the
more
drinks/food
you’ll
sell
🤷♀️
NOT
A
festival
of
any
sorts,
no
festival
vibe,
no
stalls,
no
extras
NO
WRISTBANDS,
it’s
not
a
festival
without
wristbands
I’m
aware
it’s
not
a
seated
event
however,
being
as
it’s
run
from
2pm-11pm
&
once
your
in
you
can’t
leave,
a
small
dry
seating
area
would
of
being
lovely
just
for
half
hour
while
we
caught
our
breath,
had
something
to
eat
and
the
carried
on,
not
asking
for
tables
and
chairs,
I’d
cop
a
squat
if
the
floor
was
dry
!
VIP
is
what’s
that
????
We
were
well
and
truly
RIPPED
OFF
now
we
still
don’t
know
the
real
reason
why
we
were
SOLD
vip,at
an
extra
cost,
only
to
find
when
we
arrived,
there
was
NO
VIP,
I
got
3
different
answers
of
members
of
staff
1)
VIP
was
last
night
(totally
different
event,
that
was
called
hellfire
or
something,
different
acts
etc)
we
didn’t
have
tickets
for
the
Friday
only
the
Saturday.
2)
VIP
had
to
be
cancelled
!
(
they
gave
no
reason
why
it
was
cancelled
and
we
never
received
any
form
on
communication
from
#pierjam
or
skiddle
regarding
any
cancellations)
3)
“O
did
you
get
done
by
the
VIP
SCAM?”
Now
I
honestly
have
no
idea
if
any
of
those
excuse
are
actually
real
reasons
or
whether
there
is
another
?
Because
lots
of
attendees
have
asked
the
same
question
“Why
no
VIP?”
And
as
of
today
#pierjam
nor
#skiddle
have
not
given
any
reason
why
we
paid
extra
for
VIP
for
did
not
receive
it
!!
Would
love
any
answer
to
this
please
I
eventually
got
to
front
of
stage,
1
row
of
young
ladies
in
front
of
me,
my
issue
here
is….
There
was
a
bit
of
scuffling
and
bullying
and
scrapping
up
the
front,
but
there
wasn’t
1
security
guard
in
front
of
the
railings
!!
If
anyone
had
been
taken
ill
or
passed
out,
the
only
person
who
would
see
would
be
the
artist
on
the
stage
and
his
crew!!!
Disgusting
!!!!!
Prices
of
drinks
were
as
to
be
expected
so
can’t
complain
about
that.
£4
for
a
big
hotdog
was
great
value
(independent
trader)
My
main
concerns
for
any
future
#pierjam
events
is
A)
no
disabled
facilities
B)
no
running
water
or
hand
sanitizer
C)
VIP
SCAM-
paid
for
something
we
didn’t
receive
D)
you
call
THAT
security
?
Seriously
?
Seriously
Blackpool
council
you
are
part
blame
for
this,
you
need
to
make
sure
your
letting
decent
event
organisers
onto
your
grounds.
You
need
to
go
check
that
what
they
say
will
be
there
is
actually
there
You
need
to
go
and
make
sure
it
has
basic
human
needs
met
!!
No
pier
jam
for
me
again
!!
