We live near Midsummer Common, and this is what we heard and saw : drunk yells and loud music from parked cars all the night, mountains of scattered litter and broken glass all over the place, drunk men relieving themselves in the streets... We enjoyed it very much. Thank you.

ronnie rotten

It gets better every year, sooo looking forward to 2007. More drum n bass please, in fact anything that i can spin my poi to. This is a truely free festival (glastonbury sold out long time ago)and i want to thank all the people that make it possible to keep it this way. Peace and happiness to everyone xxxxxxxxxxx Carolg

Dean - from Mill Road
In response to 'Anon' - Have you ever ventured out of your tiny bubble and attended any form of music festival in your life? You can smell the sweet fragrance of drugs, and watch drunken mature men urinating up trees at the Folk Festival in Cambridge. And if you think Strawberry Fair is a 'blatant abuse of the law' please never consider going to Glastonbury! Stawberry Fair is an event that gives people far more happiness through Music, Art and Drama than what the attendees gain from being allowed to openly partake in their very habitual drug use. And if you think that the police didn't arrested anybody for thier 'anti-social' behaviour, you are sadly mistaken. Strawberry Fair is the heart of the Arts in Cambridge, take it way and watch the creativity die!

Jonny From rough edge quartet

kez

David
It was the best Strawberry Fair in years. Highlight of the day was the Broken Family Band. The event was well run and policed and for Anon to call it a "drug fest" seems incredibly narrow minded.

emz
yer it was amazing i realy wonna g next year aswell

*pixie n lizzbat*
We had a wikkid day! much more family orientated fair this year with pixies and faeries abound. Highlight being jimbob(carterUSM)making 2 mature strawbaerries remember their skool days!!

marie

Holly and Dan
It was fab......again! Weather was perfect. Need more Drum & Bass music tho!

Anon
I am utterly shocked that this drug fest is still allowed to occur in its current form. For young children to be around such blatant abuse of the law. I saw an incredible amount of cocaine being used and the air was thick with the foul smell of drugs. What in earth are the police thinking of?

Megumi
Great wish we had this in Giffu Japan!

Adriano - Rough Edge Quartet
Best fair in years...by far!

jo rhymes
yes i did enjoy strawberry fair! the weather was fantastic and there were so many bright colours! :)

Hannah
the strawberry fair was fantastic...I am a 16 year old and the music and atmosphere was amazing. Everything was really under control and the music was a real highlight! I will definatly be going again next year!

Sarah Thompson
I couldn't believe it - Wow - the weather was fantastic, and this was the year of the TechnoStrawberry as well:- for the first time we had total wireless coverage thanks to Cambridge Matrix!

Megumi
