i think tickets are around £150 this year.

the nesstival area in the arena is open til 4am friday and saturday, and 2am sunday. there's plenty to do in there. last year there was the rizla bus which had some dj's on, the bollywood bar (i was in there loads, it was great) the soco social bar and plenty food and drink places.

can't take your own drink in there though.

the selection of food and drink is some of the best i've seen at a festival. they have the argyle food place which is much bigger than the one at T. they also have a haggis van. :P

best selection of booze i've seen. the usual cider and beer, plus spirits and mixer, bacardi breezers, real ale bar, coctails, pimms.

plenty of stages aswell. there's the main stage, clash tent, soulwax tent (which i think will be replaced by something else this year) sunday best tent, the unsigned bands tent, myspace bus, plus the soco social bar and rizla bus which both had dj's on, not sure if they will be back this year but i think they will be replaced with something else if they're not back this year.

frendliest festival i've been to. you get talking to so many people.

the toilets last year were the cleanest toilets i've seen at a festival. there were staff there all the time cleaning them, putting toilet roll in and picking up any rubbish.

the arena and campsite are both really small. it's a five minute walk from your tent to the arena and it is so easy to find your way around.

I have been each year of Rockness, been to T a fair few times also, I had a problem with rockness initially because of the dance acts (not really into dance music) but last year finally sealled the deal for me, and this is why I reckon T is my last this year and rockness will be my new annual.

Everything you've heard is true and what glowing endorsements you get from the people here are also completely true and not fully believed until experienced.

Come to us and enjoy. :O

Rockness is definately a great alternative to T. Anyone who's been to both normally says that Rockness is the better and there seems to be more and more converts every year.
