Were you at this year's Strawberry Fair? A good time had by one and all, or a pain in the you-know-what for city residents?

Strawberry fair is actualy amazing. So many crazy but lovely people there. Its such a feel good day, music is awesome, so much to look at, take part in and do. Just like i couldnt wait for this years, i cant wait for next years. Strawberry fair never fails to impress. I love it, people who havent been before are missing out....big time.

I am furious that after one song tankus the henge were told to get off the stage.i saw as many bands as i could and they were one of the best there.a little more organisation on the stages would of been good. other than that an amazing day.

i was at the strawberry fair, it was so amzing and even cooler now i have my picture on a website dressed as a goth fairy! i've missed the strawberry fair the past few years, but after having such a great time this year, im going to make sure the fairy is back every year!

It was great..again. I spoke to lots of locals and they all said it was worth the hassle etc. Back to the Planet were the best thing on all day...Bring it on 2008...x

i thought the drum and base tent was replaced by the hip-hop tent (which was pants)the canal was freezing but everyone was just so happy and yeah the litter was a pain to step in with bear feet

benedict
absolutly seething that our favourite band were man-handled off the stage after two songs! Tankus the Henge were the best and so disspointing to only see a couple of songs! V. Poor organisation on the East stage. Rest of the event was fantastic, but this ruined the whole trip.

Drunks, vomit, drugs, aggression, litter, same old tat, over priced food, too hot, too crowded, music all cancelling each other out.Well-meaning, hard working organisers.Nothing like how it used to be, non-commercial, friendly, safe, family orientated and for the local community.How much did this cost in policing etc?Please can we stop this now? It has got really out of hand.

Sam Hipkin
Absolutely fantastic! The weather was perfect the music was good. I didn’t see much trouble, due to the huge police presence at the train station. Shame they didn’t have the drum and bass tent! 2008 STRAWBERRY FAIR I CAN'T WAIT!

Carl brooker
The sound on this stage was amazing!

neil webb

Terri
I had a very good time enjoyed the music, especially the Acoustics Tent.

Darren Bradnick
Such a great day out. Exceptionally good atmosphere, with loads to see and do. Thanks to all the organisers, performers and beverage providers!

Georgia
It was ok, but you needed to be into really specific stuff, i mean once you've been round a couple of times there really is nothing to do unless you're with the right people

Sam
