We've just booked for the August FoF at The VA.
Pretty sure we won't be alone but lovely to hear from others that will be there.
Apologies if there is already a thread for this but I couldn't find it. |

"Hi all!
Would anyone mind explaining this to me? I keep seeing these VA weekends pop up but im not really sure what it is!
I appreciate you"
It's a full weekend of fun but guests can choose to be there for single days, single nights or the whole weekend. Visitors can camp in tents, motorhomes, caravans, use local hotels or travel each day. More details are on the club's website. This will be my 13th VA August festival and really looking forward to being there. Festival uses the 8 acres of Vanilla Fields and the main clubhouse. |

We missed last years as we don't make every year ( last visit 2023)
Think our first visit in 2011 must have been one of the first FoF's.
Inspire us to grab a ticket and bring the camoervan again this year !! |

We've been meaning to visit VA and are passing by on the 2nd! Didn't realise it's a festival! 🤷 But looks like we can still do one evening! Yay!!
So a question or two from first timers to the club, how's the festival differ from a normal club night?!!
Our local is a dress down club so how's everyone outfits!? Sexy, classy, themed (always up for that!), nothing?! We don't mind either way 😁 just don't want to stand out for the wrong reason!! |

Festivals are a bit more relaxed. Woodcock/stock is the theme. Some people will stick to the theme (think flowers, boho, hippie),some will wear nice evening wear dresses and heels. You dress down to lingerie/towel/nothing when you want to hit the playrooms. It's a brilliant weekend. Would be a great night for your first VA visit |

Wear what you feel comfy in. Most start smart and sexy on the evening, but clothes depart fairly rapidly

Been going to VA for years and love the bi night especially. First time to FOF and bringing our motorhome. We are very sociable and will be hosting drinks for various friends throughout the weekend so if anyone fancies swinging by for drink in the sun then just message us.
Also as the van is a big boy we have it fully stocked with first aid, camping pegs, phone chargers, sex toys (we have a bag full to give away) , water, loo roll, hammers, electric air pumps, paracetamol, bungees and pretty much anything else you may need in an emergency then just DM and we will try and help you out.
Xx |

First time forum post, go easy on us…
We’re attending Friday and possibly Saturday, we have never been to a festival as such when swinging.
We have only ever visited pleasures Maidstone.
Would someone be able to explain whats what? Do we dress up? Is the main inside area opening for playing or are you expected to play elsewhere? |

Hello. If you ant to dress up that's fine but it's up to you. Some will try to follow the theme, some will go their own way and for others it's shorts and tee shirt during the day and something sexier and night.
The main club will be open from 8pm on Friday and Saturday. Daytime activities are all in Lux Lounge and Vanilla Fields (The VA's back garden) |

"Any Lions fans going to there Saturday morning?
We are fans, there from Thursday and will try and watch it 😀😀"
We are trying to recall if the club has a big tv anywhere. Should be able to cast to it somehow if there is one |

We are fans and will have our TV and “dodgy stick” so feel free to swing by the van if it is not on in the club - our motorhome lounge has plenty of room (as you know)
Will also have cricket on when not being otherwise distracted
Twin axle motorhome with Red Indian on the side x |

Thinking of doing the Sunday as it’s the only day I can. Just trying to work out is it more like a festival outside or is it at the club itself? Never been to VA before. Sorry for hijacking your post x |

Sunday is outside with luxury lounge open and various demos and things going on.
Plus the campsite will be active throughout the day.  |

This is the thread for the May festival of Fun and not the August one - there is a thread running for this weekends FoF though so will be better to have a perv at who is going to be there this weekend |

"Thinking of booking the Sunday. Is it the outdoor lounge area only ? Are the club rooms/ jacuzzi not available?"
Sunday is usually outdoor only. The outdoor hottub will be available. There is plenty of marquee indoor seating plus a playroom is set up in the marquee also. Only if the weather is really bad then they will probably open up indoors. |

"Are we ment to have tickets or just comfermation on va Web site future booking page "
I'm not completely sure how it works.
I think when you get there they match up your name and membership number with your tickets, and give you a wristband and car parking pass.
I don't think you actually receive a physical ticket or QR code in advance. |

"I'm so not prepared this year! Just about to start packing and hopefully find something that can class as an outfit in the depths of my wardrobe! "
We found it hard to do the hippy stuff. Shops we're not really suitable, so we've managed the best we can and it is what it is |

"So do people usually wear something for the day time (ready to take off!!) and then go change for the evening? And will there be food to purchase? Thanks "
Our 1st time but we've been told during the day people wear everything from nothing, t-shirt and shorts, lingerie and other naughty stuff.
There is food to buy - pizzas, burgers and coffee

Basically this. Daytime is chilled, some play. There's food, a bar, workshops and games.
Clothing is wear what you want. Music (a band) before the club opens on Friday and Saturday. |

"Does anyone know if booking is transferable? My hubby is running late at work at we’re going to struggle to make it for 7pm 😭"
No need to hurry, it has only just stopped raining and the fun goes on until 3am at the club. I doubt there is a curfew in the camping area  |
