Well, the last one for the foreseeable future anyway. You'd never have known that with the energy in the room though. Had an amazing time at The Hairy Dog with the bands that were on, good sound quality, good atmosphere and friendly staff. Seemed like all the bands had fun too which is also important. It was my first Techabilitation experience and I'm sad that it'll be my last for a bit but it was a lot of fun. I'm hopeful it comes back cause when it does I know I'll be there again. Big thanks to Simon and the rest of the Tech Fest staff for making this all possible.

Okay to start this is my second time at TechFest but it is my wife and my daughter's first time. We only went for the Saturday. We would have done more days however, due to constraints we were unable to. My 8th month old daughter absolutely loved everything musically and visually as it was a lovely sensory experience for her. We stood at the back away from the speakers as they are well positioned to enable this. Security was excellent, staff were wonderful and whenever there is a new TechFest we will happily go again. TechFest is the best Fest. And thank you to all involved for putting it on.

I liked the friendly atmosphere. Great music selection, and no clashes, apart from some overruns, meant not missing most of it. It's sad to see it go and I really hope that, maybe after a little break, UK Tech Fest, or something with a similar vibe, returns.

A great grass-roots festival. For its size, this has to be the best-run festival there is, the facilities are excellent, the catering is all top-notch and reasonably priced, the selection of bands is first-class and, within the genre, eclectic. Great exposure for up-and-coming bands, access to UK/Europe to some fantastic bands that otherwise probably would not be able to tour here. But the best thing about this festival is the sense of community that Simon and the team have built.
