Bit disappointing that several vendors aren't there but the ones that are there from what I saw yesterday have a nice selection of stuff.

And Spike has Nxe and Tippman gear in the Draxxus stand. (He also has Monty Python playing which we all enjoyed yesterday afternoon lol)

The Eclipse tent is much larger than last year. In fact its the largest one there. Absolutely huge with a wide range of their gear. (Thanks to Michelle for rooting around out back for the backpack I wanted btw =)

But yep agreed that its a shame that the other companies are not there. It seems slightly smaller than last year to me but that might be because this year everything is more spread out and mostly in one long strip unlike last years tighter lane.

Food is greatly improved from last year. Two Ice Cream vans (overcharging for soft drinks I might add) a beer tent (bugger Im driving grr) two or three (I forget) hot food trailers.....not dodgy burger vans but big Funfair style ones. (Curly fries are great) And there's a milkshake vendor who is also selling chilled bottles of water and can's for £1 for a huge bucket. (Can't miss this stand its a huge inflatable.)

Toilets......a large number of portaloo's behind the Funfair ride. Be aware that when I was there yesterday some smart arse decided to use a coin to lock them all so there were several people waiting like true brits lol for non-existent people to come out. So knock and check if no one comes out after a while.

Overall I'd say its good, (not there today Im going back tomorrow....Im on nappy duty today) and has been drastically improved in some area's (food, loo's, layout) but needs improvement in other area's (more vendors attending)

Score B- (Good effort all round, must try harder)

I have been there today and yesterday and thought the trade presence was very good, lots and lots of shiney things.

Only pain was the rain last night and this morning and the subsequent "mud bath".

Apart from that I thought a great improvement from last year.

Only thing I thought let it down was NO ADVERTISING, I live like 10 mins from the site and saw NO signs for it at all.

Overall, I thought very good !!!!

:D:D

I saw small posters for the event all the way along the main road that the site was on :confused::cool:
Wes who came up with me spotted them as we were approaching the carpark. We both agreed that they looked more like warning "Masked Gunman" signs than anything else. They were completely unreadable. The only real advertising was the two banners outside the carpark entrance.

It was my first millenium as a spectator and I really enjoyed it - saw some familiar faces and waded through the mud like a good'un :)

although it made me really itch to play.....next year can't come soon enough !

Just realised the initial listing didn't show PB Fashion. I spoke with Brandon Fort of PB Fashion and he said that they are intending on attending every Millennium Event so everyone can get headbands and sandana's. As we all know its not what gear you wear or marker you shoot, the important thing is how cool your headband is ;)
