Summer Fiesta
Having attended the Fiesta on Friday, my view is that it was a big mistake to move it from the Consum Square. The stage was too small and badly positioned because unless you were stood at the very front you couldn't see anything.
There were not enough bars to cope with the reduced numbers that were there or enough seats for everybody to relax. Due to the narrow area available to use plus the space taken up by the "fairground" vans selling the usual tat, it meant everybody was penned in like sheep. Not ideal at all with people moaning about the heat and lack of places to sit down.
The acts were poor and not worth hurrying back to see. Needless to say, we haven't bothered to go back for the other two nights of "entertainment".
Hopefully the Council will realise that their decision to move the Fiesta from its ideal location at Consum Square, in return for funds being donated to their election campaign, was a poor one and move it back next year.
That's my opinion but having spoken with various other people on the matter, I know that I am not the only one who has these views.
Thank you for your time and I await your comments.
