Saw an ad for this, happening in September. If we're serious about tackling the drink culture in this country, this type of thing should not take place. An excuse for a drunken festival, as if we don't have enough such occasions already. If you check youtube, you can see some of the madness in previous years for yourself.
yes we should ban everything. Festivals, pubs, late opening..drugs...everything
that'll stop them...
i remember this wan on joe duffy, giving out loads , her young fellow was born on "arthurs day" and of course the genius called him arthur
the next year it was on a different day
Given that most music festivals are glorified drinking binges, a drunken festival based on the established of a drink is far more honest (I would have kept it at five year intervals myself to ensure it gets more attention when it does occur).Originally Posted by cricket
next kid called chardonnay......
dont drink posh wine tho...
It's not just a wine, it's a place in France. Maybe we should ban that too.

The above link shows the type of rubbish that goes on. You are correct that this "festival" is entirely inappropriate.
Enough drink in our culture already.
This is blatant commercialism by Guinnness
And why must nearly every VIP visitor be shown with a Guinness in his/her hand?
Down with this sort of thing
It is a "nothing" festival outside the City!
