Having missed the first one, I'm going to have a damned good try to get to the second one!  woo! you should definatley come! Chepstow is gorgeous and we are lucky that accomodation is very reasonable and because we run the bar for the ball-we keep the prices down! My 2 high points this year was watching music on the bandstand by the river as the sun went down and the Ball/cabaret coming together.

Blast. I think that could well be dead in the middle of my exams. I could turn up for a day.

good to hear you chaps are getting ready for next year! we have a couple more acts to confirm, then we will release all those details plus put tickets on sale! we're very excited with some of the bands and acts and traders we are lining up and hopefully we can top what we did this year! it'll be wonderful to see hopefully lots of new faces to our festival (and hopefully those we have seen at Lincoln too!)
tickets prices will be very similar to this years event, that with the very reasonablely priced accomodation and our very reasonable bar prices make for a very affordable weekend! and as many of you know Chepstow is very easy to get to either by road (straight down the M4- 2 hours from London) and very easy by train!
any questions, please ask! i visit Brass goggles daily-even if i don't type much (the perils of only having smart phone access during the day!)

yeah, pretty much all the venues are the same-Drill Hall and Chepstow Castle. Hopefully also the Chepstow Castle Inn, a big soemwhat Victorian looking pub with a huge garden and also a room for potentially music

I didn't camp last year but I think there's a decent (by which I mean very very cheap) 'farmhouse' campsite which the Vincent Swanns stayed at. I was thinking of that one ... not sure of the details - will find out at New Year Corby.

Waltz on the Wye Steampunk Festival returns to Chepstow! After the huge success of last year, WOTW is back to thrill you once again with all manner of Steampunk and related entertainments! Via the temporal loop, we booked Morgan and West to perform their Sherlockian Time Travelling Magicians show for us on Friday evening. Morgan and West have become well known via their successful Edinburgh shows and confounding Penn and Teller on their ITV show 'Fool Us'' http://www.morganandwest.co.uk/There will also be Bands on the Bandstand with Rogora Khart, Boxcar Aldous Huxley and Gaudy Orde. Saturday is filled with daytime talks and workshops, charity raffle, the specialised steampunk market, Contraptions Exhibition, fun and games on the Riverside Gardens then in the evening the fantastic Saturday night Waltz on the Wye Cabaret and Ball with Pocketwatch. More to be announced. Sunday is a slightly more relaxed affair with many of Saturdays attractions plus the opportunity to watch our theatre production of a String of Pearls Tickets now on sale! http://wyewaltz.eventbrite.co.uk/?ref=elinkhttps://www.facebook.com/events/137787242990634
