Do you believe that what you see in the news are the only things that happen at festivals?

Do you believe that all festivals are about taking drugs, getting drunk, sexual assault and rape?

Or do you believe that 99% of people that go to festivals go their to enjoy themselves with their friends ? And that it’s that small 1% minority that the media pick up on for taking drugs and falling ill for overdosing at festivals?

Festivals shouldn’t be banned as they contribute alot to the local economy which can be put towards important things e.g schools, hospitals and local charity groups (cancer research) aswell they give people a chance to get away from work or college/university to allow them to have fun their are bad sides to it as alot of drugs go under the radar but the small majority people do die from them but that Is only the 1% of the 99% of all people that’s go to the festivals improvements can be done but it takes time.

Do you think that you are safe at a festival? I personally don’t think that you are. Not only is there drugs,alcohol and fights there is also high sexual assault and abuse rates. This means that people may not feel as though they are safe

There are many things in the news and newspapers about young people ending up in hospital and even dead after attending a festival. This means that many parents and the older generations will see this and not what there children to go there because it is unsafe.
Many people would say that the news and all only show you what they want you to hear but if you think about it why would they put lots of bad things if they want to encourage more people to go .

Festivals are good for smaller businesses, around the local area. To make profits and to also make the business more well known. It also helps up and coming bands get there name out to big numbers of people.

I think fairs are a really good idea because they bring people together and takes people’s minds off of work or school. However for people they are disruptive but I think differently that festivals and fairs aren’t disruptive as people are trying to have a good time. The people that set up the festivals gain alot  of money which encourage Them to do more.

At a festival drugs and alcohol are very common and tend to go under the rader would you let your child attend this drug fest?
Festivals are very dangerous as they promote the usage of drugs festivals like board masters have a huge negative impact on young teenagers as they might think that drug usage is normal and natural but it is wrong and can be harmful.
In the newspaper you never hear any positive feedback from festivals they usually express there hatred towards them. I think this is justified as festivals are so environmentally unfriendly they leave so much litter and causes landscape devastation.
Not only all that they make so much noise and disrupt the community this causes negative impacts as people don’t want to attend festivals due to all the reports on drugs and even deaths not many parents want to send there children to these festivals. Jack D
