I HAVE to take issue with the review of the Apollo Festival 2016 (The Press, June 28).

I attended the festival for the first time with my family. I have a music mad five-and-a-half year old.

The festival had a really great family atmosphere with not only lots of talented bands to see but also plenty of well priced food and drinks and other entertainment for the kids.

The day ended on a high with brilliant performances from Dodgy and lastly Cast.

The whole family had a great day and we will definitely be returning next year.
