Hi Everyone,
We had a very fun time last night at the first night of the outdoor Rainton Festival. Held at The Rainton Arena (Sunderland).
The festival which is free to enter consists of a good sized funfair which has rides for all ages and a good few to keep the adrenaline junkies among us happy. Prices start from £1.50 with the most expensive being £5 for the bungie trampolines.
There are also game booths such as hook a duck, ring toss and basket ball to name a few. There's also refreshment stands throughout. We would advise bringing cash although some rides did accept card payments.
The second part of the festival is a main stage which will host different acts throughout the weekends in August. In order to gain access to this area you can book tickets for a table which seats upto 6 people. Once inside you have your own area and you are able to order food and drinks from your phone to be delivered direct to you. The service was very fast. The tables are under a circus style tent with the sides off so perfect if it rains. The first nights entertainment was Dick and Dom who put on a very family friendly show that kids and adults both enjoyed. We also really enjoyed the warm up act who was very entertaining.
The organisers have gone to a lot of effort to ensure the publics safety regarding the Covid-19 guidelines. Areas are very clearly marked to allow a two metre social distance, hand sanitisers are on every ride and on entry and exit to the main stage, there was alot of security and staff members dotted around to ensure everything was in order and the toilets were cleaned after each visit so were spotless. Even the free onsite carpark was organised amazingly well to avoid any social distancing problems.
We had a fantastic night out with the kids.
