| Description: | This weekender will certainly sell out.
The combination of retro techno and up and coming acts is a winner. Throw in a few current movers and shakers and have a huge party in a Butlins holiday camp and you're on a rollercoaster.
Strap in, buckle up and take Monday off.
There are chalets to hire so you can go with your crew and have a blinder.
There's not much else going on in the festival world in the UK so start off on the right foot, and get your Mears on. You need to be a survivalist to get through this one unscathed.
BLOC is held at the Butlins Resort in Minehead, near Bristol. It’s a gigantic holiday and entertainment complex which backs on to a sandy beach in a beautiful part of the world.
Everyone attending is housed in luxury private holiday apartments that surround the
indoor stages – this accommodation is included in the ticket price and you can now stay for up to four nights from Thursday to Monday morning at no extra cost!
The apartments are subdivided into those that have a kitchen and living room, and those that don’t. Even if you opt for an apartment with no kitchen, you can buy food from the restaurants on site.
This year, you also have the option to select a Gold apartment when booking up. Gold apartments also feature a kitchen and living room but have a more luxury feel than the rest. They also feature a posher kitchen with a microwave, 100% Egyptian-cotton bedlinen, widescreen TV and DVD, a second TV in the master bedroom, shower rooms with towels included, a hairdryer and personal safe. Yes that’s right, 100% Egyptian Cotton!
Standard apartments are available on a first-come, first served basis with those located closest to the stages made available first. These apartments are all perfectly lovely too! |
